Does Naomi Campbell Have a Partner? A Look at the Supermodel's Relationships
Updated June 30 2023, 11:44 a.m. ET
While some celebs waste no time expanding their families, others prefer to stay career-focused for a while and have children at a later time. Naomi Campbell — who definitely falls into the latter category — has long been open about having kids. But of course, rushing the process was not part of the equation for the star.
Now that the icon is a mom of two, fans are overjoyed. It’s something that Naomi deserves. But fans are curious to know if Naomi has a partner — especially as she has long been private about her romantic life. Here's what to know.
Does Naomi Campbell have a partner?
Naomi is without a doubt one of the most beautiful women in Hollywood. So, it's no surprise that she has been quite popular in the dating circuit, despite keeping her romantic life on the hush.
Over the years, Naomi has been linked to Hollywood A-listers including Gerard Butler, Terrence Howard, rapper Skepta, Quincy Jones, and more, per Ranker. The bombshell was also linked to Diddy in 2002, even though they have long said that they have a brother-and-sister type of relationship.
Naomi reportedly started dating former One Direction member Liam Payne in January 2019. The two were apparently seen together at a Davido concert in London. Not to mention, fans noticed the couple leaving each other sweet messages on Instagram during that time. Though nothing was ever confirmed, the two supposedly broke up in April 2019.
In 2021, Naomi was asked by The Cut about sacrifices she'd made for her career. “I’d say the sacrifice is really finding that soul mate who will understand you," she said. "It’s really like you feel if they look at you as if you’re strong … you know, I’m strong, but I’m also sensitive. I know that in relationships I have to compromise.”
Naomi Campbell has two kids.
Naomi has long dominated the fashion world, and now she's been focused on dominating the greatest title of all: motherhood. The icon is a proud mom of a daughter (born in 2021) and a son (born in 2023).
“A beautiful little blessing has chosen me to be her mother,” she wrote on Instagram after her daughter was born. “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.”
When announcing the birth of her son, Naomi wrote another beautiful message on social media: "My little darling, know that you are cherished beyond measure and surrounded by love from the moment you graced us with your presence. A True Gift from God, blessed! Welcome Babyboy. It’s never too late to become a mother."
As Naomi hasn’t been very open about her relationships, fans believe that she welcomed her children via a surrogate.
In a 2017 interview with the Evening Standard, the supermodel spoke about her desire to build a family. "I think about having children all the time," she told the outlet. "But now with the way science is, I think I can do it when I want."
And many fans took that to mean that surrogacy was definitely in her sights.
Congratulations are definitely in order for Naomi! We looks forward to seeing more of her gorgeous family.
