Naomi Campbell: I'll be a very strict mum

But the model says she can't wait to have a baby

Naomi Campbell had treatment for a burst ovarian tumour earlier this year

Naomi Campbell says she feared she might not have been able to have children after suffering a burst ovarian tumour.

She says she was in pain for months, but at first doctors didn't know what was wrong.

‘In America they missed my symptoms,’ she explains. ‘So I went to Brazil where they have wonderful doctors.

'They discovered an ovarian tumour that had burst and had caused infection. They operated and now I can have children, God willing.’

Naomi, 38, is dating Russian billionaire Vladimir Doronin and she says she’d like to start a family with him in the future.

‘He is really wonderful. I'm not pressing him about having a family but it is something I want,’ she tells the Daily Express.

‘I think I will be a very strict mother but at the same time understanding as I'm very childlike myself.’
