Naomi has been extremely private about her daughter and didn’t reveal she was expecting a child until she announced her arrival with an Instagram post.
In an interview with British Vogue, Naomi insisted her daughter was not adopted as she revealed her face for the first time.
The supermodel stunned fans by announcing the birth of her daughter in May, just weeks after hitting the runway at New York Fashion Week with no baby in sight.
But she says the child – whose biological father has never been named – is hers amid growing speculation about her biological parentage.

Speaking to the latest edition of British Vogue while posing 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 while she confirmed her daughter wasn’t adopted, she refused to go into more detail about her first birth.
However, she admitted that very few of her large circle of friends and family members knew that she was planning to become a parent.
She explained: “I can count on one hand the number of people who knew I had it. But it is the greatest blessing I could 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 with her newborn daughter and said she had never felt “greater love”.
Offering a first look at her new arrival with a photo of her baby girl, whose name has not been revealed, Naomi wrote: ‘A beautiful little blessing chose me to be her mother.
“As honored as I am to have this kind 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.’
