The self-proclaimed “single mum of a single mum” said that while she has lived the last few decades of her life in the spotlight, she does not feel inclined to do the same thing for her children.
“I’m not sure I would let her start working at 15. It’s a ruthless world,” Campbell said in the interview.
The 54-year-old model has not revealed her children’s names to the public and has also made sure she never posts them on social media, hiding their faces from the public.
Even when she posted for British Vogue in 2022, she kept her daughter’s face obscured from the camera.
She said in the Vogue interview, “She [my daughter] wasn’t adopted – she’s my child…But she is the biggest blessing I could ever imagine. It’s the best thing I’ve ever done.”
In May 2021, she announced the birth of her daughter.
“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 that I now share with you my angel,” she wrote under the picture she posted of her daughter’s feet “There is no greater love.”
In June 2023, the supermodel shared the addition of her second child, her baby boy.
