Iconic high supermodel Naomi Campbell has started a new chapter to her life — motherhood.
On Tuesday, the London-born icon, 50, took to Instagram to share the precious moment of her cradling the baby’s feet in her hand.
“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. There is no greater love,” she wrote in her caption.
Fellow celebrities in her Instagram comments responded positively about the moment.
“Wow, congrats Naomi! What a beautiful blessing”, wrote costume designer and creative director at Puma, June Ambrose.
