In 2018, Campbell said that she'd love to have kids during an interview with
Vogue.
"I'd love to have kids," she said. "I don't discount anything in life. I love kids and always will. When I'm around children, I become a child myself. That's the little girl I don't ever want to lose."
When asked about having children in
2019, the model said: "I'll see what the universe brings me."
