Former Victoria's Secret model Miranda Kerr, who's currently single, advises against having sex on a first date because she finds it is better to first go out with a number of potential suitors to keep your options open.

The 31-year-old split from Orlando Bloom in 2013 after three years of marriage.

"If you are not sleeping with someone, then I think it's okay to go on a date with this one and that one," she told Harper's Bazaar magazine, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

"My philosophy is that until you get to know them, it's better not to (have sex), because energetically, as a woman, you get attached. So you're better off to go on a few dates and see if you want to get attached or not," she said.

Although she is currently single, she insists she is not looking for a boyfriend because the only man she has eyes for at the moment is her and Bloom's four-year-old son Flynn.

"I'll go on a date here and there if it works. But at this point my priority is my son. I'm not looking for a relationship," she said.
