At 61-years-of-age, Christie Brinkley is the picture of health and every bit as model-perfect as she has been for decades.
Her 16-year-old daughter Sailor Brinkley Cook has done some modeling as well, but mom doesn’t want her mini-me getting too caught up in that world.
The elderly model and mother already knows her daughter has started to feel pressured to lose too much weight or strive for a body that’s unhealthy.
On an episode of The Meredith Vieira Show airing Monday, Christie admitted that she does worry about just “how skinny” some of the young women working in fashion are today.
Christie explained that Sailor, too, had been “worried about her weight” early on, saying, “She had lost weight gradually over time, and she reached a point where she got some jobs as a model, and she got to the jobs and the other girls were so much thinner.”
