Christie Brinkley is celebrating an extra special Christmas Eve alongside all three of her kids.

On Wednesday, Dec. 24, the model, 71, shared a sweet selfie on her Instagram as she posed alongside all three of her kids in a rare photo. Brinkley could be seen in the center, wearing a Santa hat and a red plaid scarf. She had an arm around her daughter Sailor, 27, who wore a red turtleneck sweater.

Brinkley's son Jack Paris, 30, smiled on her other side, wearing a plaid shirt as he sat next to his mother. Her other daughter Alexa Ray, 39, smiled in between her mom and her brother. "Merry Christmas Eve Everybody‼️🎄🎉☃️," Brinkley wrote in her caption.

This past June, Brinkley appeared on the Totally Booked with Zibby podcast and explained that raising her three kids in the spotlight has been one of the "toughest" things she's experienced in regards to being famous.

"Having kids is probably one of the areas that's the toughest. Dealing with a certain amount of celebrity and the scrutiny that goes along with it is hard," Brinkley said at the time. "When that overlaps and they start scrutinizing your kids and comparing? That really hurts. Really."

"It's the one thing that I can say has been the biggest bummer of being famous because you never want what you are doing to hurt anybody," she continued. "And Alexa really got hurt by things that the media would say about her and continued to say about her through the years. It was really hard on her and I think it's really hard."

The mom of three went on to explain that fame affected her kids differently and became particularly difficult with her younger daughter, Sailor.

"My other two came 10 years later, and Sailor, who got compared to me for looking like me, had difficulty with that because she struggled with her weight," Brinkley said. "She dabbled in modeling, but she didn't really love it. It wasn't her thing, but when she was younger and she dabbled in it, she thought, 'Now I have to look like a model and I have to lose weight.' "

"But it was rough on her too, and she got an eating disorder and she got anorexic, and it's just tough. So now I say to them: look at somebody like Kate Hudson, who is so well adjusted. She's got Goldie Hawn, super famous, like really famous, and Kurt Russell as her dad – or stepdad? — and she just keeps doing things."

Brinkley explained that she uses Hudson, 46, as an example because she never lets what the press says about her affect her.

"So I try and say to them: don't even read the press for starters," Brinkley said of her kids. "And not even just the press, but the letters people write, although I must say, I think we have a very nice group of people in our Instagram."

"I say to Alexa: if they say you're a nepo baby because you sing, do they say to the kid whose dad owns the hardware store and he takes over the hardware store, that he's a nepo baby?" Brinkley said of Alexa, whose dad is the famed "Piano Man" singer. "It's like a family business! Like, you grew up on a sound stage or on the edge of a Madison Square Garden stage."
