DID NAOMI CAMPBELL ADOPT HER BABY?
Campbell announced the birth of her baby girl in May 2021. The news surprised fans, as she had never been seen pregnant in public. Breaking her silence about whether her daughter is adopted, she said:
"She wasn't adopted – she's my child."
While the television personality refused to share more details about her only child, she admitted that she told her family and close circle of friends that she had plans to become a mother.
Previously known for her wild partying ways, Campbell seems to be yearning for a simpler life with a little one to look after. She waited until she was 50 to become a mother.
She took inspiration from her close supermodel friend Iman, who welcomed her daughter, Lexi, at a mature age. Iman gave birth to her daughter at 45 after marrying her late husband and legendary singer David Bowie.
