Supermodel Naomi Campbell, 50, has announced the birth of a baby girl.
She shared a photograph of herself cradling the newborn’s feet in her hands on Instagram. This is Campbell’s first child..
In the caption, Campbell wrote: “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.”
