Evan Spiegel is admiring his wife and how she puts their kids first.

The co-founder and CEO of Snap Inc. and supermodel-turned-beauty-mogul Miranda Kerr opened up about families and careers in WSJ. Magazine's July digital issue.

The couple, who share son Hart, two, and Myles, nine months, also balance co-parenting Kerr's son Flynn, nine, who she shares with ex-husband Orlando Bloom.

Spiegel told WSJ. Magazine that he has learned so much from Kerr's relationship with Bloom, who is now expecting a second child with fiancée Katy Perry. Their modern approach to co-parenting means that raising the kids is a team effort.

"What I saw from Miranda and Orlando was very different from what I experienced," Spiegel said. "I am in no way a replacement for Flynn's dad. I feel like [I'm part of] Team Flynn."

The self made billionaire says the couple have an open-door policy for Flynn's friends as well as Bloom.

"This is one of the things I love about Miranda," Spiegel, 30, told the magazine. "Everyone is welcome. It's the Aussie way."

Spiegel said he realised that Flynn was the centre of his wife's life from the moment they met, recalling their first date where Kerr made a gingerbread house with icing that had her and Flynn's names.

The pair are now focusing on practical parenting during the coronavirus pandemic.

"[Flynn's] screen-time restrictions are out the window," Spiegel admits, before Kerr added: "We do limit screen time around here."
