built 606 days ago
More recently, Naomi has been in the headlines not only for her modelling and her romantic liaisons, but for her legal battles. Although she admitted that the Daily Mirror was right to say that she had long battled with drug addiction and was attending Narcotics Anonymous meetings, she objected to the intrusive nature of the coverage, claiming that it interfered with her right to privacy. After a lengthy series of legal wrangles that went all the way to the House of Lords, the courts eventually ruled in her favour and she won what was seen as a significant victory for privacy-seeking celebrities everywhere.
