'Thank you for your personal sacrifice. Colin took action with no fear of consequences or repercussions, only hope to change the world for the better.' 

Per Sports Illustrated, Christie was the first to cover the Swimsuit Issue twice consecutively, let alone thrice - which remains the most anyone's done it in a row.

Sailor is Christie's daughter by her fourth husband Peter Cook - an architect, not the famous English comedian who was himself married three times.

Christie, 63, and her Peter Cook were married from 1996 until 2008, and they have also got a 22-year-old son called Jack.

From 1973 to 1981, she was wedded to her artist first husband Jean-François Allaux, and from 1985 to 1994, she was married to renowned singer Billy Joel.

Though Christie and Jean-François' union yielded no progeny, she and Billy do have a 31-year-old daughter called Alexa Ray Joel, who is herself a singer-songwriter.

After Billy came Christie's brief marriage to real estate developer Richard Taubman from 1994 to 1995, after which she arrived at her fourth and latest ex-husband.
