The 50-year-old model revealed this week she has welcomed a baby into the world, and sources have now said the news isn’t surprising for anyone who knows the beauty, as she’s wanted to be a mother for “more than 10 years”.

A source told People magazine: "She's wanted a baby for a long time, more than 10 years. And anyone who's surprised Naomi is having a baby on her own, her own way, and on her own timetable doesn't know Naomi Campbell. Hasn't she redefined everything she's ever touched?"

Naomi hared the happy baby news on Instagram this week with a sweet photo of her hand holding the infant's feet.

She 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. There is no greater love. (sic)"

Meanwhile, Naomi previously insisted 2021 will be "an amazing year".

Whilst she acknowledged there are "a few more bumps to get through" amid the coronavirus pandemic, she admitted she was confident things will be great again by the end of the year.

She said earlier this year: "At the end of 2020, my main reflections were on the need for us to move upward and forward. We have to rise to every challenge and walk through it. And we will get through it. 2021 is going to be a great year, we’ve just got a few more bumps to get through first. Nothing disappears overnight, but we just need to get through this first quarter. After that, I believe that this is going to be an amazing year. Actually, I don’t just believe it will be; I feel it will be."
