Naomi Campbell has accepted an apology from Cadbury regarding an advertisement campaign although she believes they could have acted sooner.

The model was considering legal action after the Dairy Milk Bliss slogan said: "Move over Noami, there's a new diva in town."

At that time, Campbell said: "I am shocked. It's upsetting to be described as chocolate, not just for me but for all black women and black people."

Cadbury immediately responded, stating: "It was not our intention that this campaign should offend Naomi, her family or anybody else and we are sincerely sorry that it has done so."

Campbell said: "The advertisement was in poor taste on a number of levels, not least in the way they likened me to their chocolate bar."
