Kimora Lee Simmons and her new hubby, Djimon Hounsou, deck the halls at their New Jersey home.
The 34-year-old fashionista spoke to Page Six magazine about marriage, the importance of family and how they plan to celebrate Christmas.
On their new marriage: “It happened in Africa, in Benin. [Daughters Ming, 9, and Aoki, 7] were there, and we had a wonderful time. It was very calm, family-motivated and spiritual. Djimon and I enjoy discussing anything from politics to wine, and we have enriching, private, happy, balanced lives together. Thatās probably the thing that would shock people most: We do things like go to the grocery store and have fun with our kids. Weāre a normal family, doing the best we can.ā
On family: āMy family is the most important thing to me. Iāve never missed any type of performanceānot one recital, not one karate belt. If thereās a toe being tapped or a tune being whistled, I am there. We do everything together. I know we live a little bit of a different life, with all the running around and the TV show, so I want to make sure weāre even more grounded.ā
On her favorite Christmas treats: āI bake. I make a great German chocolate cake. Anyone who knows me will tell you Iām a great baker, the best. When I bake something, I swear to god, itās gone before it hits the plate.ā
