“To everyone reaching out (very angrily) about me having a mask…my mom is an artist and does projects that require her to wear a mask,” she said, referring to Christie Brinkley.

“We didn’t buy them upon hearing about the spread of COVID-19. She kept one mask for each one of our family members and then donated the rest to local hospitals.”

She also said that her mother has been tracking down supplies, and donating 30% of proceeds from her Bellissima Prosecco brand to Direct Relief Foundation, and that they are “donating daily to organizations helping to create masks.”
