Sailor Brinkley Cook Speaks Out About Mask Controversy Amid Coronavirus Outbreak

Hey there, let's talk about something that's been making waves. Sailor Brinkley Cook, the stunning model and daughter of Christie Brinkley, had a few things to say after she and her mom faced some backlash over wearing masks during these uncertain times. Instead of staying silent, Sailor took to Instagram to clarify things and set the record straight. At just 21 years old, she’s showing a lot of maturity and compassion in her response.

Look, I get it—people are feeling strongly about masks right now, and rightly so. But Sailor wanted everyone to know that she and her family weren’t hoarding supplies meant for hospitals. In fact, they’ve been actively giving back to the community. "To everyone reaching out (very angrily) about me having a mask," Sailor began in an Instagram Story on April 1, 2020. "My mom is an artist who does projects that require her to wear a mask, so she had a stash of them in her art studio. We didn’t buy them when we heard about the spread of COVID-19. She kept one for each of our family members and donated the rest to local hospitals."

Sailor’s Mom Stepping Up to Help

Sailor went on to explain just how much her mom, Christie Brinkley, has been doing to combat the pandemic. "She’s been continuing to work to find supplies to help keep hospital workers safe as well. And is also donating 30 percent of @bellissimaprosecco proceeds to protective equipment," Sailor shared. It’s clear that the Brinkley family is putting their efforts into action, not just words. They’re not just thinking about themselves; they’re thinking about the bigger picture and how they can help others during this crisis.

Why Masks Matter

Here’s the deal: Sailor and her family aren’t taking this lightly. They’re wearing masks not because they’re scared, but because they care about others. "I have one mask. My boyfriend has one mask. And we are VERY grateful to have one and are donating daily to organizations helping to create masks," Sailor emphasized. The last thing they want is for someone else to get sick because of something they could’ve prevented. That’s why they cover their faces when they go out, whether it’s to the grocery store or just for a walk. "God forbid if we might have [coronavirus] and don’t know. We don’t [want to] spread it to someone less able to fight it off," she added.

Let’s be real here: Nobody wants to catch this virus, and nobody wants to spread it either. Sailor’s message is simple yet powerful: "Please stop sending me hateful messages, and stay safe." She’s asking us all to come together, not tear each other apart. This is a time for unity, not division.

We hope those criticizing Sailor can take a moment to listen to what she’s saying. In times like these, it’s crucial to stick together and support one another.
