I heard alot of young people saying they don’t have to have children, later you will want to become a mum- Naomi Campbell
Naomi Campbell has confirmed that she welcomed her second child via surrogate at the age of 50.
Naomi, who also has a 3-year-old daughter, clarified that neither of her children were adopted, although she hadn’t been pregnant herself.
She mentioned that having kids did not mean she wanted a father for them, expressing her happiness as a single mom.
Speaking about the importance of her children, she told The Times, “My babies are everything to me. It’s made me fear for the future.”
When asked if she used surrogate, she said: ” I did. I hope for a better world for my children. They are 110 per cent my priority. I have to be there for them on their first day at school.”
What she feels about young people saying they don’t want to have children, she said: ” I have heard a lot of young girls saying that it is too expensive to have children and they may not want them, and I have said, You will change your mind. You will want to be a mum”‘.I understand economically it is tough.
“But my mum had nothing and she made it work. It’s worth it. It is so amazing.”
“We have to depend on the younger generation to change this world. I trust my children more than us to do the right thing.”
Despite starting her modeling career at age 15 for Elle, Naomi Campbell stated that she will never allow her children to work at that age.
She said: ” I’m not sure I would let her start working at 15. It’s a ruthless world.”
Amid the ongoing Los Angeles fire, a family was left stunned when they discovered that their statue of the Virgin Mary remained untouched by the flames.
Peter Halpin, the family patriarch, described the sight as nothing short of a miracle.
Speaking to Fox News, he said, “It was remarkable how everything had gotten fried, but the statue of The Virgin Mary and another statue of Saint Joseph were in perfect condition,”
Although the statues had slight scorch marks, Halpin explained that it became a moment of faith and prayer for his entire family. *”Our home is dedicated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. We prayed together and sang a special song that our family has known for decades in honor of the Blessed Virgin. It was truly remarkable.”
Halpin recounted how the family returned to the site of their destroyed home to assess the damage.
It was there they discovered the 37-year-old statue still standing, a powerful symbol of hope. Overcome with emotion, the family, including their six children and other loved ones, gathered to sing praises and share their gratitude on Instagram.
“Our intention was not for this thing to go viral at all.
“It was pretty much just a family thing, but the response from the community has been unbelievable and so heartfelt.”
His wife, Jackie, shared that she and her son-in-law fell to their knees when they saw the intact statue. “We’re going to pray. We’re going to thank God that we’re safe, and we have entertained a lot for years. We feel very strongly in the virtue of hospitality, so I just wanted to pray and say, ‘If we can do it again, that would be great.
“The song in the video kind of came about on its own, so I just wanted to pray. I just want to be grateful as much as I can for what we’ve had.””

Kim Kardashian is speaking out on social media, urging California Governor Gavin Newsom to raise the salaries of firefighters currently battling the Los Angeles fires.
In a series of Instagram posts, Kim revealed that many firefighters are paid just $1 per hour, despite the dangerous nature of their work. She pointed out that this pay rate has remained unchanged since 1984.
Kim also highlighted the tragic fact that many firefighters have lost their lives while performing their duties, further stressing the need for a pay raise to reflect the risks they face every day.
She wrote in a post: ‘“On all 5 fires in Los Angeles, there are hundreds of incarcerated firefighters, risking their lives to save us,” she wrote on her Instagram Stories late Saturday night.

Tragic news has emerged as former child star Rory Sykes lost his life amid the devastating fires sweeping through Los Angeles.
His mother, Shelley Sykes, broke the heartbreaking news on X (formerly Twitter), sharing that Rory died in a cottage on their family’s 17-acre property. She revealed that despite her desperate efforts, she couldn’t douse the flames on the roof with a hose because the water supply had been shut off by the Las Virgenes Municipal Water District.
In an emotional interview with Australia’s 10 News First, Shelley recounted the terrifying moments. She was unable to move her son, who had difficulty walking due to a medical condition, from the burning house — and her own broken arm made things even harder.
As she tried to save him, Rory tearfully pleaded, “Mom, leave me…” But Shelley couldn’t bring herself to abandon her son, saying, “No mom can leave their kid.”
When she couldn’t reach 911, Shelley rushed to the local firehouse for help. Sadly, by the time she returned, it was too late.
Firefighters later confirmed that Rory died from carbon monoxide poisoning.
Announcing his death, she wrote: ‘It is with great sadness that I have to announce the death of my beautiful son

Soul legend Sam Moore has passed away. The iconic singer died on Friday morning in Coral Gables, Florida, due to complications following surgery. However, the type of surgery he underwent has not been publicly disclosed.
Moore rose to fame in the 1960s as one half of the dynamic duo Sam & Dave, known for timeless hits like “Soul Man,” “Hold On, I’m Coming,” and *”I Thank You.” His powerful voice and unforgettable performances made him a staple of soul music history.
He was first discovered in church by legendary singer Sam Cooke, who believed Moore had the talent to shine in gospel music. Moore’s partnership with Dave Prater began during a nightclub talent show in South Florida, and their undeniable chemistry caught the attention of Atlantic Records in 1965.
Though Sam & Dave broke up in 1970, their legacy was revived in the late ’70s when The Blues Brothers, portrayed by Dan Aykroyd and John Belushi, performed “Soul Man” on Saturday Night Live.
As a solo artist, Moore collaborated with major stars like Bruce Springsteen, Billy Preston, and Jon Bon Jovi, continuing to influence the music world with his incredible voice.
In recognition of their groundbreaking contributions to soul and R&B, Sam & Dave were inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 1992, cementing their place in music history.
May his soul rest in peace……….!!!
