Model Naomi Campbell has become a mother for the second time, welcoming a baby boy.

The 53-year-old announced the news on Instagram as she shared a picture of her cradling the baby while it is assumed her young daughter was holding the baby's hand.

She captioned the post: "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. #mumoftwo."

She concluded the message, writing: "It’s never too late to become a mother."

Famous faces from the world of fashion including designer Donatella Versace and German model Claudia Schiffer shared messages of congratulations.

Meanwhile, Netflix’s Bridgerton and Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story actress Golda Rosheuvel wrote: "Congratulations my love. Best news."

London-born Campbell had not previously revealed she was expecting her second child.

The catwalk star was discovered as a schoolgirl and she went on to become the first British black model to appear on the cover of British Vogue.

She is also known for her charity work and in 2005 founded Fashion For Relief, a charity merging fashion and philanthropy.
