“Like mother, like daughter” couldn’t ring truer for Sailor Brinkley Cook and her legendary mom, Christie Brinkley. The iconic supermodel has been a massive source of inspiration for Sailor, who’s carving her own path in the world of modeling, health, and wellness. In an exclusive chat with Closer, Sailor opens up about the bond they share and how Christie’s work ethic has influenced her career choices.
“Both my mom and I are deeply connected to what we do,” Sailor says with pride. “We don’t just do things for the sake of doing them. It’s important to us that our work aligns with who we are as people. That’s something I’ve learned from watching her over the years.”
Sailor’s Plant-Based Journey: Following in Her Mom’s Footsteps
Sailor, now 24, is making waves as one of the fresh faces behind Silk Nextmilk’s latest campaign. This initiative aims to inspire the next generation of milk drinkers by offering a delicious plant-based alternative. It’s a project that resonates deeply with Sailor, whose mom, Christie, famously posed for the Got Milk? campaign back in 1995.

“It’s been such a thrill to revisit those iconic campaigns she did during her career,” Sailor reflects fondly. “Growing up, my mom always encouraged me to think critically about the products I use and the brands I support. That’s why this campaign feels so authentic—it aligns perfectly with who I am.”
Plant-Based Living: A Family Affair
Christie, now 69, raised Sailor in a plant-based household where cooking, eating, and enjoying nutritious meals became second nature. From a young age, Sailor learned the value of incorporating plant-based foods into her diet, setting the foundation for her lifelong commitment to wellness.
“She taught me everything about plant-based living,” Sailor shares. “Even today, we both follow similar diets and love experimenting with recipes that include plant-based milk. We’ve got Silk Nextmilk stocked up in our fridge, and it’s become an essential part of our daily routine. Whether it’s in our coffee or paired with cookies while watching movies, it’s truly a game-changer.”
