The Enchantress actress says she is truly bewitched by her other half, who Delevingne says has taught her the true ā€œmeaning of loveā€.

ā€œIā€™m completely in love,ā€ she told Vogue. ā€œBefore, I didnā€™t know what love was ā€“ real love. I didnā€™t understand the depth of it. I always used to think it was you against the world.

ā€œNow I know the meaning of life is love. Whether thatā€™s for yourself or for the world or your partner.ā€

The model ā€“ who is rumoured to have recently proposed to Clark ā€“ also discussed her sexuality, which she refused to label ā€“ although she is more than happy for other people to.

ā€œIā€™m obviously in love, so if people want to say Iā€™m gay, thatā€™s great. But weā€™re all liquid ā€“ we change, we grow.ā€

Delevingne ā€“ who last month discussed her battle with depression ā€“ went on to admit that as a child, she used the word ā€˜gayā€™ as an insult.

ā€œAs a child I used ā€˜gayā€™ as a bad world, as in, ā€˜Thatā€™s so gayā€™. All my friends did.ā€

Delevingne ā€“ who recently revealed her reasons for giving up a life on the catwalk ā€“ also stressed the importance of equal pay for women in Hollywood.

ā€œI would probably still do it even if I wasnā€™t paid at all,ā€ she explained. ā€œBut in terms of equal pay, I need to be paid the same as the guy who has equal billing with me.

ā€œOtherwise I wonā€™t do it. Because if you accept less, youā€™re just letting everyone else down and continuing the cycle.ā€

Suicide Squad is out this Friday (August 5) in UK cinemas.
