If your mother is Christie Brinkley and you’re gorgeous, of course magazines are going to want to feature you on their pages.
Jack and Sailor Brinkley-Cook joined forces for a photo spread in Town & Country’s November issue and, as you would expect, they look very good in it. The golden haired, golden children of the supermodel, who were raised in Long Island, New York, make a stunning pair in the black-and-white photos.

Aspiring model Sailor, 17, looks like a young Jessica Simpson in one shot as her wavy blond locks cascade over one eye. The daughter of Peter Cook — yes, the architect who had the affair with the teenager – told the mag that her upbringing was very ordinary, despite her family’s business being splashed across newspapers around the world.
“The best part of my childhood was how normal it was given my circumstances,” said Sailor, who lives on her mother’s 20-acre estate in posh Bridgehampton. She described her parents as “balanced,” explaining, “My dad understands reality, and my mom, fantasy.” Though being the daughter of a legendary Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model poses some problems. “It can be hard to be up-and-coming and constantly compared to an icon.”

While Sailor is building her modeling resume and prepping for college, Jack, who graduated from a conservatory program at New York City’s Lee Strasberg Theatre & Film Institute, wants to be an actor.
“The most terrifying thing is the desire to establish a career as an actor,” said the curly haired hunk, whose father was Christie’s third husband, Richard Taubman. He was later adopted by Cook. “It’s an extremely competitive and challenging industry to conquer.”
The 20-year-old aspiring thespian said he turns to their older half-sister, Alexa Ray Joel, for career advice. She’s 29 and a singer. “If I ever have anything I need to talk about or get over, Alexa is my go-to,” he noted.

Sailor and Jack’s famous mom was proud of their mag collaboration. Christie posted a photo from their spread on Instagram Tuesday, writing, “My Two ‘little ones’ from their editorial spread.” Her daughter got an extra shout-out, “Sassafras, you look sassier and more beautiful than ever!”
The half-siblings, who have posed together previously, seem to be part of a larger trend we’re seeing of celebrity siblings teaming up in front of the cameras. Kendall and Kylie Jenner and Gigi and Bella Hadid are other sibling acts you can see on the pages of fall magazines.
