She welcomed her first child, a daughter, last May.
And Naomi Campbell has revealed she has an ‘amazing baby whisperer’ as she gave a rare insight into motherhood with her 14-month-old daughter on Saturday.
The 52-year-old supermodel said her child, whose name is not yet known, is growing up to be “very tough.”
Doting: Naomi Campbell, 52, has revealed she has an ‘amazing baby whisperer’ as she gave a rare insight into motherhood with her 14-month-old daughter on Saturday
Naomi told BBC News after receiving an honorary doctorate from the University of the Creative Arts (UCA): ‘She is very tough. She falls down, she doesn’t cry. She doesn’t cry much at all.’
When asked if her daughter is a ‘good sleeper’, she added: ’12 hours [sleep]† We got her at 12 o’clock when she was about two months.
“I have a wonderful baby whisperer.”
Cute: Speaking to BBC News, Naomi said: ‘She’s very tough. She falls down, she doesn’t cry. She doesn’t cry much at all
Naomi is extremely private about her daughter and did not reveal that she was expecting a child until she announced her arrival in an Instagram post.
In an interview with British Vogue, Naomi insisted her daughter was not adopted when she showed her face for the first time.
The supermodel stunned fans by announcing the birth of her daughter in May, just weeks after she appeared on the New York Fashion Week runway without a visible baby bump.
But she says the child — whose biological father has never been named — is hers amid growing speculation about her biological ancestry.

Speaking to the latest issue of British Vogue as she posed with her daughter for an exclusive cover shoot, the model confirmed: “She’s not adopted – she’s my child.”
Naomi played coy during the new interview, and despite confirmation that her daughter has not been adopted, she declined to elaborate on her firstborn.
However, she admitted that very few of her wide circle of friends and relatives knew that she intended to grow older.
She explained: “I can count on one hand the number of people who knew I had her. But she is the greatest blessing I can ever imagine. It’s the best thing I’ve ever done.”
The supermodel – who is believed to be single – surprised her Instagram followers when she shared a photo of her cradling her newborn daughter and stated that she has never felt “greater love.”
Naomi offered a first look at her new arrival with a photo of her daughter, whose name has not been released, and wrote: ‘A beautiful little blessing has chosen me to be her mother.
“So honored to have this gentle soul in my life, there are no words to describe the lifelong bond I now share with you, my angel. There is no greater love.’
