Valerie remarried when her daughter was in her teens. The relationship between stepfather and stepdaughter was not easy. Gradually, the girl developed a willful character, which became the cause of frequent quarrels in the family, with classmates and teachers.
As a child, Naomi dreamed of following in her mother's footsteps and even attended ballet school. But fate had a different calling in store for her. One day, while walking through the streets of London, Campbell met Beth Boldt, a representative of a French agency.
