Model and television personality Karlie Kloss is starting a new venture... in media.
Kloss and her husband, investor Josh Kushner, have acquired the publishing rights to Life magazine from Dotdash Meredith, via their holding company Bedford Media.
(Kushner is the founder of venture-capital firm Thrive Capital and younger brother of Jared Kushner, son-in-law and previous white house advisor to former President Donald Trump.)
“We see Life as an uplifting and unifying voice in a chaotic media landscape,” said Kloss in a statement, as reported by The Hollywood Reporter. “While Bedford is a new media company, we are deeply inspired by Life’s iconic legacy and ability to connect diverse audiences with universal narratives of humanity.”
Kushner—who will act as the publication's publisher—added that the magazine's legacy "lies in its ability to blend culture, current events and everyday life, highlighting the triumphs, challenges and unique perspectives that define us."
