Bloom, Kerr wed secretly

British actor Orlando Bloom has secretly tied the knot with model and fiancee Miranda Kerr.

Kerr confirmed the news while releasing a statement explaining why she was cancelling an appearance at the Australian department store David Jones.

"David Jones very graciously released me during this period so we could celebrate an intimate ceremony and honeymoon together," people.com quoted Kerr as saying.

"I’m very much a part of the David Jones family and I am very committed to my role. I am enormously grateful to David Jones to have been given this time to enjoy such a special moment in my life," she added.

The couple began dating in late 2007 and announced their engagement last month.
