The 40-year-old supermodel insists she no longer tries to plan too far ahead, saying 'Whenever God decides it's right for me. I don't put pressure on myself.'

Naomi Campbell is in no rush to have children. The 40-year-old supermodel, who is currently dating Russian billionaire Vladimir Doronin, insists she no longer tries to plan too far ahead as battling alcoholism taught her to take things one day at a time.

"Whenever God decides it's right for me. I don't put pressure on myself," She said when asked she plans to have children. "I let things happen how they should naturally. That's how I am today. I'm a recovering alcoholic and addict and I don't drink and I don't do drugs. I live my life one day at a time."

Naomi also admitted she is still struggling to come to terms with the death of her godchild, Nelson Mandela's great-granddaughter Zenani, who passed away after a car crash in June. She told Britain's Elle magazine, "I was in South Africa when she died. She was due to stay with me the next day and I had just been to Topshop to buy her lots of stuff. I really can't talk about it. It's too recent. It's sad when God decides to take a soul that young."

Naomi revealed that family is very important to her and she loves nothing more than to cook for her extended family and friends. She explained, "The kitchen's very important to me. Sometimes I cook for my man, for my cousins, for my friends. I'm happy the way I am right now."
