Naomi Campbell opens up about using a surrogate
The model and the television host recently confirmed seeking the help of a surrogate to facilitate her children’s birth during the interview.
Campbell shared that her babies made her “fear for the future.” Saying, “My babies are everything to me,” the British model shared, “It’s made me fear for the future.”
She continued, “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.”
She further shared that she is happy being a "single mother,” while gently scolding the "young girls" for refusing to have children saying that it's "too expensive."
Campbell said, "I have said, 'You will change your mind. You will want to be a mum.' I understand economically it is tough. But my mum had nothing and she made it work. It’s worth it. It is so amazing."
Previously, in September 2023, Campbell gushed about being a mother to TODAY's Sheinelle Jones. The supermodel admitted it was a “lot of fun” to embrace motherhood.
Campbell shared, "I love it. It's a lot of fun. Each day is a surprise. You don't know what's going to happen, what my daughter is going to say. She goes to her potty, she's like, 'Mommie, privacy.' And I'm like, 'Huh?' I said, 'Not to your momma. You can do that to everybody else.’”
"I don't know where she got it from,” added the doting mother laughingly.

As Campbell confirmed taking the leverage of a surrogate, fans took to social media to share they already figured that she must have taken the help.
One of the social media users said on Facebook, "We already knew that and good for her."
Someone else said, "Love this for her. The thought of me using my body for a vessel in such a fashion is unimaginative. Birth isn't for everyone. I'm so proud of her for discerning it wasn't for her. 🥰."
Another netizen added, "We kinda figured. 🙄.'
"The jokes on you if you though she was pregnant in her 50s. People are ignorant nowadays," observed someone else.
