According to GQ Online, Naomi Campbell and Skepta met for the first time back in November 2016, at the British Fashion Awards at the Royal Albert Hall, in London.
Introduced by British Vogue Editor Edward Enninful, the pair took a number of Polaroids, along with Campbell’s longtime friend and fellow supermodel Kate Moss, before going on to the after-party together.
“A series of Instagram images with love heart emojis chronicle the friendship that blossomed, which, this year, took a professional turn…”
