Naomi Campbell played Bob Marley as she welcomed baby girl into the world

Supermodel Naomi Campbell revealed that late reggae icon Bob Marley played a huge role in one of the most memorable moments of her life.

Speaking with American disc jockey D-Nice on the most recent episode of her podcast, No Filter With Naomi, the 50-year-old announced that she was playing Bob Marley's music as she welcomed her daughter into the world.

Describing Marley's music as her "roots", the model who is of Jamaican lineage said the moment she welcomed her baby girl into the world was a special moment and that Marley's music was a key part of that memory.

"In my special moment, you know I just became a mom, I had Bob Marley playing. I mean, that's my roots. I love it," she told D-Nice.

On May 18, Campbell stunned the world when she announced she had welcomed her first child.

The runway goddess shared the news on Instagram with a photo of her hand holding the newborn's feet. "A beautiful little blessing has chosen me to be her mother," she wrote.

"So honoured to have this gentle soul in my life, there are no words to describe the lifelong bond that I now share with you, my angel. There is no greater love."
