In the August issue of Marie Claire, Diane Kruger talks life with Joshua Jackson and meeting Karl Lagerfeld in her sweat pants
Diane Kruger is far from your average celebrity – in the August issue of Marie Claire, on sale today, she talks to us exclusively about her relationship with the gorgeous Joshua Jackson and describes why the team at Chanel are her 'family'.
Talking about Joshua, who she's been dating since 2006, Diane said: 'There's never going to be a role that's more interesting than my own life. I'm grateful that I met a person who feels the same not just about me, but also about our relationship. But therapy helps, too.'
The actress talks openly about getting therapy, telling us: 'My friends ask, what's wrong with you? But here everyone talks about it, and I really like that about America. Therapy's not about getting help; it's facilitating yourself to deal better with life in general.'
Diane models a collection of stunning Chanel Haute Couture pieces in our exclusive shoot, and describes her relationship with the French fashion house as more like 'family' than business. That'll be down to the fact she modelled for the brand from the age of 15, and maintains a close relationship with Karl Lagerfeld, who lives almost on her doorstep in LA. Cue hilarious anecdotes about her bumping into the fashion designer while wearing sweat pants and on a trip to the local shop. Amazing.
Diane's LA antics are what make her so popular as an A-lister – she's incredibly down-to-earth and prefers skinny-dipping with Joshua in the desert to taking drugs at all-night parties.
Talking about swimming naked with her A-list man, she says: 'Look, it gets so hot in the summer, it's like 80 degrees at night, and you're in the middle of nature… wouldn't you?
Pick up the August issue, on sale today, to read Diane's full interview on love, fashion and fame – and to see her gorgeous shoot.
