Christie Brinkley is just weeks away from her 68th birthday, but the super is showing the world that she isn’t willing to retire her bikini just yet. The former supermodel posted a stunning new selfie on Instagram showing the world that 40 years after gracing the cover of Sports Illustrated, she’s still got it.
Christie Brinkley Defies Her Age In A New Bikini-Clad Photo, Wowwing Fans With Her Curves.
Christie was on a tropical getaway when she decided to share the bikini-clad selfie with her 750,000 Instagram followers. “Hat✔️Sunblock✔️ SBLA Lip Plump and Sculpt✔️Gratitude,” she captioned the snap. The post follows a string of photos showing that Christie has been living her best beach life.
The supermodel turned entrepreneur appears to defy aging in the black string bikini and straw hat. Brinkley, who spent years promoting home fitness equipment with actor Chuck Norris, seems to have maintained an unbelievable fitness level for someone of her age and appeared confident to show off her jaw-dropping curves.
Christie broke her arm during rehearsals for Dancing With The Stars in 2019 and admitted last year that her body had changed and she had to be kinder to herself.
“I just couldn’t get enough vigorous exercise, and with quarantine came banana breads and the inevitable extra pounds,” she shared on Instagram last year. “I must add I felt overwhelmed by the number of injuries I was dealing with (I’ve been very adventurous! Ouch!) but I realized I just needed to start with one thing and keep moving forward…”
The Supermodel Decided To Focus On Her Fitness After Gaining Pandemic Weight, And Fans Are Certainly Taking Notice.
It looks like that meant upping her game and finding motivation when it came to her health and wellness. The CoverGirl spoke to People magazine last year about focusing on her fitness goals, which included being in good enough shape to play with her kids, and staying strong so she can remain independent in her later years.
Fans immediately took notice and were left gushing in the comments section. Many fans rushed into the comment section to compliment Christie on her great physique, with one saying that “time has clearly stopped for you!” And another lauding that she was “goals for a life well lived.”
The former supermodel has had a prolific career, aside from appearing on the cover over Sports Illustrated for three consecutive years begging in 1979, Christie also spent 25 years as a CoverGirl and has donned the cover of over 500 magazines.
