On the heels of turning 60 Feb 2, Christie Brinkley posed in a swimsuit for the cover of People to celebrate – and she looked amazing while doing so.
Christie told the magazine, “I’m actually excited about turning 60. I feel on top of my game.” She added that she wasn’t going to do a bikini:
“My kids would be so embarrassed! In private I may wear a bikini, but at the public beach with my kids I would change bathing suits because they do not want to be hanging out with some old broad in a bikini.”
Brinkley credits her three children – musician Alexa Ray Joel, 28, college freshman Jack Brinkley-Cook, 18, and up-and-coming model Sailor Brinkley-Cook, 15 – as her motivation to focus on staying fit and healthy.
She wrote on her Facebook page, “I never would have imagined this is how I would be celebrating my 60th …But Thank you PEOPLE Magazine for hopefully sending the message that with proper diet, exercise, and joie de vie, every birthday is cause for Celebration!”
