Regent announces Christie Brinkley as godmother to Seven Seas Splendor

Regent Seven Seas Cruises has announced Christie Brinkley as the godmother to Seven Seas Splendor.

She?s a supermodel, actress, proud mother and successful entrepreneur.

A centuries-old maritime tradition, a ship?s Godmother christens the vessel and is responsible for bestowing good luck over the ship and to all guests and crew who sail her. Brinkley will christen the cruise ship in Miami on February 21, 2020.

Jason Montague, president and CEO of of the cruise line, said: ?Christie Brinkley is a universally beloved icon who is synonymous worldwide for her beauty, style and commitment to health and happiness. It?s fitting that the Godmother of Seven Seas Splendor reflects timeless elegance, vitality and sophistication, as Regent has perfected all the details of luxury onboard Seven Seas Splendor. We are deeply honoured that Christie will christen our newest ship and delighted to welcome her to the Regent Seven Seas Cruises family.?

Seven Seas Splendor will have a crew of 542 caring for 750 guests. 

Brinkley said: ?We learn best about the beautiful world around us by exploring new cities, immersing ourselves in different cultures and interacting with the gracious people who live there. We cherish and remember these moments more when we experience them with the people we love. The absolute most invigorating and luxurious way to travel the world is by cruising the seas.

?As a woman who strives to inspire other females to achieve their career and personal aspirations, I?m especially proud to be Godmother of the first new cruise ship in maritime history to be captained by a female, the trailblazing Captain Serena Melani.?
