Naomi Campbell faces heavy criticism as she claims her children don’t need a father after becoming a single mother of two

Naomi Campbell is facing heavy criticism for comments that her children don’t need a father.

She welcomed a daughter in May 2021 and a son in June 2023. Her comments come after the supermodel confirmed that she is the mother of two children via surrogate, finally denying rumors that her children were being adopted.

Campbell, who’s 54 and a self-proclaimed single mum, told The Times UK that her children didn’t need a father because her mother, who was a “single mum and had nothing” and “made it it worked.”

“My children are all the things to me. It made me fear for the long run,” she told the portal. “I hope for a higher world for my children. They are my priority 110 percent. I even have to be there for them on the primary day of school.

To some, Campbell’s comments come as no surprise to those that note that Campbell’s father disappeared from her life before she was born. Her mother, who was a skilled dancer, left her within the care of her grandmother while she traveled around Europe as a skilled dancer.

Despite her tumultuous childhood dynamics, that hasn’t stopped criticism from Campbell, who rarely posts her children on her Instagram except in Stories.

“My father was murdered when I was four. Not growing up with a dad may distort your perception of men,” one person commented on the situation. “But now that I’m married with children, I see how important it is for your father to be present and actively involved in your life.”

“Volunteering for children to have no father is crazy to me,” one other person commented.

“Many women who have such contempt and disregard for fathers or men in general contribute to the degeneration in our society,” one other commenter said on Instagram. “It takes male and female energy to create life. A seed cannot grow without fertile soil, and fertile soil cannot support life without seeds that can be fertilized.”

However, some people applaud Campbell for making her decision based on what she thinks is best for her situation.

“I truly believe that a man or woman can raise a child perfectly well without a partner,” the Instagram user said. “There are plenty of successful people in this world who were raised only by their father, mother, uncle, aunt or grandfather and who turned out great.”

Some people indicate that an bizarre person cannot make the identical decision as Campbell, who has estimates net price of $80 million.

“If you are not in the same tax bracket as her, DO NOT, I repeat, DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME!!!” – said one of the Instagram users.

“A single mom with a full staff is not the same as a single mom working alone,” one other replied.

Although Campbell has not publicly announced who the father of her children is, it seems that she is a single woman. In an interview with The Cut, she stated that she puts work ahead of her relationship and that at this point in her life it’s about finding someone who understands her.
