In an interview with The Times published on June 7, the supermodel confirmed the use of surrogacy and expressed the immense significance her children hold in her life.
“My babies are everything to me. It’s made me fear for the future,” Campbell shared, highlighting the depth of her love and concern as a mother. She emphasized her dedication to her children, stating, “They are 110 percent my priority. I have to be there for them on their first day at school.”
Campbell, who describes herself as a "single mother," also addressed societal attitudes towards motherhood, expressing her belief that many young women who claim they don't want children will eventually change their minds. Drawing from her own experience and that of her mother, who raised her despite economic challenges, Campbell emphasized the transformative and rewarding nature of motherhood.
The model's decision to share her journey with surrogacy represents a significant step in breaking down stigmas and opening up conversations around alternative paths to parenthood. While Campbell has maintained privacy regarding her children, she recently shared the first-ever picture of her baby son in May, marking a milestone in her journey as a mother.
In addition to her role as a mother, Campbell's career achievements are being celebrated in an exhibition titled "Naomi: In Fashion" at the Victoria and Albert Museum in London, opening on June 22. The exhibition explores Campbell's groundbreaking career, creative collaborations, activism, and cultural impact, solidifying her legacy as a trailblazer in the fashion industry.
Naomi Campbell's openness about her experience with surrogacy and her dedication to her children underscore the profound and multifaceted aspects of motherhood, inspiring others with her journey of love, resilience, and hope.
