Karlie Kloss reveals she's relaunching LIFE Magazine with her husband Josh Kushner more than 20 YEARS after it was shut down by Time - saying it'll be 'an uplifting and unifying voice'

Karlie Kloss and her husband Josh Kushner have are bringing LIFE Magazine back to regular publication.

The supermodel and her billionaire investor husband - who is Jared Kushner's brother -  have acquired the iconic brand from Dotdash Meredith through their company Bedford Media.

LIFE Magazine, first published in 1883, was shut down more than two decades ago by Time Inc. 

Bedford Media said in a statement they will relaunch the brand as a print magazine with a digital and video presence. 

'We see LIFE as an uplifting and unifying voice in a chaotic media landscape,' said Kloss told 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.'

The couple's media company previously acquired i-D Magazine from Vice Media last year.

Time's founder Henry Luce  acquired Life in 1936 and gave it the look and editorial agenda that made it one of the country's most famous publications.

Some of the historical covers include Marylin Monroe, The Beatles, and The Man on The Moon.  

Time Inc shuttered the operation in 2000 and Dotdash Meredith acquired it in 2021.

Kushner said in a statement: 'LIFE's legacy lies in its ability to blend culture, current events and everyday life—highlighting the triumphs, challenges and unique perspectives that define us.'

According to the deal. Bedford will now manage the full editorial operations of Life Magazine.

Meredith, on its part, will continue to own all rights to the LIFE archives, including photography and print content. 

The company will also continue publishing its single-topic magazines for the LIFE brand. 

Kushner, who will be the publisher of LIFE,  is the founder of venture-capitalist firm Thrive Capital.

The couple, who have now been married for more than five years, shares two children together.
