In fact, the 41-year-old supermodel told The Sunday Times magazine in a joint interview that she felt a bit sorry for Cara, who broke into modeling when she was 17.

"Oh, I loved her. She's like a little ... chicken. I just wanted to take care of her,” she says. “She was so little and so naive. I just wanted to put her in a little hutch."

And Cara has nothing but praise for Kate, who she credits for “saving her.”

"I had no concept of saying no to anyone, ever. After a while I got sick and got a condition called psoriasis,” she recently said.

“I felt disconnected from myself, but my agency simply shoved me into a doctor's surgery, where I got cortisone shots, but - in reality - I wanted someone to stop me, but nobody did.

"I never felt like I was good enough, that I deserved success. I felt like I was living somebody else's dream. Kate Moss saved me - she stepped in and picked me up off the floor at a stressful time."
