  • Former Sports Illustrated model Christie Brinkley’s daughter Sailor has forged her own path as a model in recent years, so could they be the next Cindy Crawford and Kaia Gerber?
  • Sailor starred in a ‘Got Milk?’-style campaign for Silk Nextmilk, which also recruited David and Victoria Beckham’s son Brooklyn, Shaquille O’Neal’s son Myles and John Travolta’s daughter Ella Bleu

Kaia Gerber and Cindy Crawford aren’t the only lookalike model and daughter duo on the scene. Christie Brinkley’s doppelgänger daughter Sailor Brinkley Cook is slowly making a name for herself in the fashion world as a model too, but being a nepo baby has had its pros and cons for the young starlet.

25-year-old Sailor is the daughter of former Sports Illustrated model Brinkley and architect Peter Cook, who were married from 1996 until 2008. She was born via IVF when Brinkley was 44, per Harper’s Bazaar, and has two half siblings – Alexa Ray Joel (from Brinkley’s relationship with Billy Joel) and Jack Paris Brinkley Cook (Brinkley’s son with ex-husband Richard Taubman).

She grew up outside the big city

Unlike most nepo babies, Sailor’s parents raised her away from the bright lights of the big city. Instead, she was a full-time resident of Sag Harbor in the picturesque Hamptons area of Long Island.

“When I moved to the city after high school I came to appreciate my upbringing out here even more,” she told James Lane Post. “It really shaped me to always maintain a down-to-earth, grounded mentality no matter what happens in my life,” she added.
