American television series contestant Christie Brinkley suffered injuries while rehearsing for her performance. She got severe injuries and will not be able to be on the floor this season. Dancing with the Stars is a series based upon dance.
Brinkley has suffered injuries and required surgery to her wrist and arm, making it impossible for her to return into the series. The fact about her injury is not going to allow her to participate in the competition. She has got many fans and is an excellent dancer, but this was a disappointing fact.
However, she will not let the audiences down and has something for them. Her fans will have someone to root for, her daughter!
Sailor Brinkley, her 21-year-old daughter, has decided to jump into the series in place of her mother. She is a Sports Illustrated model and stepped into the shoes of her mother.
Brinkley on an interview said that Showbiz is all about taking a break and she and her daughter had got their break when she got her injury. She further told that her daughter Sailor got into the cast of the show dancing with the stars when she suffered from the disheartening incident.
Brinkley-Cook has now already got onto the ground running with only hours to learn her mother’s entire dance routine and is working hard for it. She is doing it all for her mom only, and she wants her to be happy and feel proud of her daughter. She told GMA that her mother loves to dance and to perform on stage, and when she got hurt, it was just like a nightmare come true.
She shared her experiences and said that she was excited to take up the new challenges yet to come.
