For supermodel Naomi Campbell, being a mother-of-two is the “biggest blessing.”
In a recent cover interview for the Harper’s Bazaar September 2024 Icons issue, Campbell shares a rare look into her life as a mother.
Since welcoming her daughter in May of 2021 and son in June of 2023, the 54-year-old told the outlet that being a mom is “the biggest blessing is to have these two innocent, beautiful souls and for me to be able to be their mother. I learn a lot each day. They’re good kids.”
The mom of two goes on to say that being a mom has definitely affected the way that she travels.
“I definitely don’t take them from New York to London for a two-day shoot. That’s too much, but my kids love to travel. They must have known!”
Earlier this year, Campbell opened up in an interview with The Times and spoke about how she welcomed both her son and daughter to the world via surrogacy.
In the interview, the former Victoria Secrets model shared that being a mother has also given her a fear of the future.
“My babies are everything to me. It’s made me fear for the future,” she said at the time. “I hope for a better world for my children. They are 110 percent my priority. I have to be there for them on their first day at school.”
Naomi credits her mother and the strong independent women in her family for instilling in her the resilience that she needed to accomplish anything that she sets her mind to, including being “a single mother of a single mum.”
“My mother worked so I was independent. It’s a great thing if children display that quality, so I don’t worry about working with my own children.”
