Christie Brinkley and her daughter matched with the same men on dating apps.
The 71-year-old model - who has son Jack, 30, with third ex-husband Richard Taubman and daughter Sailor, 27, with fourth ex-spouse Peter Cook - told how her youngest child helped her set up a profile to find a potential partner but was shocked to find they were being paired with the same people.
Speaking to Kristin Davis on her Are You a Charlotte? podcast, Christie said: “She wanted to see what kind of guys [would match] … and she put me up there … and she said, ‘Mom, you’re right not to go on it, because the same guys that said yes to me, are saying yes to you.' "
Kristin replied: “Smart Sailor, that is a really fascinating little experiment."
Christie speculated on the type of guys who were matching with both her and Sailor, suggesting they were just looking for a woman who would be "impressed" by their choices.
She said: “I find that what men like to do is to find somebody that’ll be impressed by every little thing that they do. Like, ‘Oh really, oh, you’re taking me to that restaurant.’”
Kristin, 60, is fascinated by the modern dating world and wants to learn more, even though she is "kind of scared" about the process of finding a partner.
She said: “I’m kind of scared and awed by the whole situation that has kind of evolved in the dating world. And I don’t understand it, but I would like to understand it better.”
Christie previously spoke about how Sailor, who is also a model, has helped boost her confidence after she appeared in the 60th anniversary edition of Sports Illustrated's famous Swimsuit issue.
She told People magazine: "Sailor is very strong and, you know, she has very strong opinions about feeling good about yourself because she's gone through strong feelings, not feeling good about herself.
"So, she's really into empowering herself to feel confident and good. And she'll say to me if ever I, I'm doubtful and I go, 'I don't know, you know, is this like...?' She's like, 'Mom, you're beautiful, embrace it, you know, go with it, lean into it.' And I'm like, 'Ok, I shall try.'"
