Christie Brinkley looked sensational in a tiny red bikini on Monday as she posed for stunning Instagram selfies during a boat trip.
The supermodel, 71, showed off her amazing figure in the triangle top and matching bottoms as she relaxed and soaked up the sun.
Christie added a red and white patterned coverup over the swimwear and shielded from the sun under a stylish woven beach hat.
She accessorised with a simple gold pendant necklace and left her long blonde tresses loose as she appeared to be heading snorkeling.
The former Sports Illustrated star swapped her sun hat for a navy New York baseball cap as the speed boat moved along the ocean.
Christine looked in good spirits as she teased her new book Uptown Girl, inspired by her ex Billy Joel’s song of the same name.

Uptown Girl will be written in her own words.
The book will feature over 100 photographs and pieces of Brinkley’s own artwork.
‘I wrote Uptown Girl to inspire readers to create the life they want, which is what I’ve always tried to do, not through fortune or fame, but by saying yes to adventure and trying to find the magic in every moment, no matter how big or how small,’ the star said in a statement on Tuesday.
Uptown Girl will hit shelves on April 29, 2025 and is now available for preorder, wherever books are sold.
The memoir will also cover the ‘betrayal’ she felt from her biological father.
And she will touch on her marriage to singer Billy Joel who was in his 1983 music video Uptown Girl.
Brinkley also touched on self help with her ‘unwavering belief in the magic and mystery of life,’ and then there is the ‘resilience and self-discovery.’
She has already written the 2015 book Timeless Beauty.
‘Uptown Girl is unlike any story you will read,’ says Harper Influence Senior Vice President and Publisher Lisa Sharkey in a statement.
‘At times tender, bubbling over with gobsmacking intimacy and illustrated with the author’s artwork, Brinkley’s unputdownable memoir will keep you enthralled and completely shocked until the very last page.’
