Naomi Campbell Says Her Daughter “Wasn’t Adopted”

Naomi Campbell is opening up on how her life has changed since becoming a mom in her 50s.

The famed supermodel made headlines last May after sharing that she was officially a mother! In a now-deleted Instagram post, the fashion icon shared a picture of her baby girl’s feet with the caption

“A beautiful little blessing has chosen me to be her mother, So honoured to have this gentle soul in my life there are no words to describe the lifelong bond that I now share with you, my angel. There is no greater love.”

Now the 51-year-old supermodel, is photographed for the first time with her 9-month-old daughter for the cover of British Vogue’s March issue. In the revealing interview she addressed speculations that her daughter was adopted saying, “She wasn’t adopted – she’s my child.”

Campbell also said she’s keeping the full details surrounding her daughter’s birth and name private for her upcoming book. She added that prior to her IG announcement, not many people were aware she had a baby on the way.

“I can count on one hand the number of people who knew that I was having her,” she shares. “But she is the biggest blessing I could ever imagine. It’s the best thing I’ve ever done.”

Campbell revealed fellow model and good friend Cindy Crawford was the first to meet her daughter when she was just a few days old.

She also shared that they are currently working on The Supermodels, an upcoming docuseries for Apple TV+ along with Christy Turlington and Linda Evangelista.

Directed by Oscar-winner Barbara Kopple, it will revisit their 1990s reign. Together with Ron Howard, they are all executive producers on the project.

“It’s about our life and times together: our friendship, careers, our womanhood, our motherhood,”  she said. “As models, we don’t have any rights to our image, so it feels good to be partners on our legacy – and in our own words.”
