When Did Steph Claire Smith And Josh Miller Get Married?

Having met at such a young age, both Steph and Josh said they knew the other was their soulmate. Eventually, Miller proposed, on the same property they met on all those years ago. It was also the location of their November wedding in 2019, where Steph wore a custom two-piece dress from Melbourne-based bridal boutique Kyha Studios.

“The farm is Josh’s family holiday house. It’s where we met, where we got to know each other, where we first kissed and where we got engaged. Aside from all that, it’s our favourite place in the entire world so it was a no brainer,” Claire Smith told Vogue.

Does Josh Miller Work With Steph Claire Smith?

Miller worked mostly with his father’s construction company in the early years of his life, but in 2018 he co-founded sunglasses brand Soda Shades with his now wife Steph Claire Smith.

The brand was successful, but in 2021 the couple decided to part ways with the brand, citing the need to spend more time with their growing family. The brand was placed in the ownership of investors but in 2022 it went into voluntary receivership, which they say was due to global supply chain issues.

Since having their son, Miller has been a stay-at-home-dad, allowing his wife to continue her journey with KIC. During his time at home, Miller has carved out a living in photography and content creation.

Steph Claire Smith Opens Up About Intimacy With Husband Josh Miller

If there’s something we love about Claire Smith, it’s her ability to get open and honest with her followers and really relate to them. 

In 2022, Claire Smith admitted on the KICPOD that she and Josh had embarked on a 30-day intimacy challenge with her husband, after the birth of their son Harvey. 

“We’re tired and there are dry spells but whenever we are intimate, it makes everything else better,” Steph said previously.

The pair got back onto the topic of sexual wellness and intimacy in relationships in 2023. Henshaw was laughing while one of Claire Smith’s friends phoning into the podcast revealed that when Claire Smith had been a teenager she had “sexy little outfits” that she would wear with her then boyfriend Miller, specifically “nurse outfits”. 

“Then you would hide them and your mum would clean your room for you, she’d find them and hang them up all nicely for you and just never mention it,” the friend said. 

Henshaw was in hysterics, but questioned Claire Smith in the sex-positive discussion about what is was like.

Claire Smith divulged that she would put on accents while in a roleplay and that it was a great way to spice up their intimate moments. 

“I think because we’ve known each other forever, I think that’s why I used to play characters,” she said, adding it allowed the could to “mix it up”. Roleplay is certainly nothing new, and her revelation was agreed with by many couples in the comments. 

“Okay I have to know- was it the ‘Bras N Things’ nurse outfit? Because same,” one wrote. “This is the best! Why don’t you guys launch a podcast about raunchy/taboo topics. Legit, the best. Laura’s reactions are just priceless,” another added.
