Since her engagement, the model told WWD she’s been cutting back on her modeling jobs during fashion month to spend more time with Bieber, 24.

“I’ve tried to be really choosy with fashion week going forward, just because I want to have the time to spend being relaxed and being with family — and my fiancé,” Baldwin said.
