Christie Brinkley's children poke fun at her cooking skills: 'We're really good at restaurants'
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Christie Brinkley may be recognized as a Sports Illustrated swimsuit icon, but to her three children, she’s just a mom who happens to lack culinary skills.
The 63-year-old model shared a candid video via Instagram on Sunday from a recent interview the family conducted for PEOPLE Magazine. Daughters Alexa Ray Joel and Sailor Brinkley-Cook, along with their brother Jack Brinkley-Cook, revealed that their famous mother isn’t exactly a pro when it comes to cooking.

“We’re good at restaurants!” joked 18-year-old Sailor.
However, 31-year-old Alexa Ray previously told Fox News that everything she knows can be credited to “mom.”
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}“I mean, I’m still not as good as her with you know… she can do her own hair and makeup and styling like a professional stylist, hair and makeup artist. So I’m not there yet,” she explained.

"She taught me a lot about taking care of yourself, skincare, great makeup tricks," added Alexa Ray. "She’s really good at putting together a very effortless [style] look. I tend to wear a lot of her pieces. She’s given me a lot of hand-me-downs and jewelry that she’s collected from all over the world. Africa, Paris… [from] all of the adventures she’s had as a model.”
