Christy Turlington revealed that her son Finn, who recently turned 18, was teased during a basketball game at his school. The opposing team resorted to passing around nude images from one of Turlington’s past modeling shoots as a way to mock him.
Turlington expressed her surprise that this incident didn’t occur earlier and called the behavior “rude”.
“I was surprised it hadn’t happened sooner,” she told Harper’s Bazaar in the May 2024 Beauty Issue. “But, at the same time, I was like, ‘This is so rude!’”

In a 2023 interview with Glamour, Turlington jokingly mentioned that her children were not fully aware of her past modeling career when they were younger.
“When they were both little, I didn’t really model very much,” she explained. “I still don’t. It’s pretty rare when I do. But my daughter knew I went to school, which she thought was hilarious because she would do homework and I would do homework. The fact that I could talk about ‘I have a test tomorrow’ … she really liked that.”
