Niki Taylor: Timeless Icon Returns as Grandmother and Model

Niki Taylor: The 90s Supermodel Makes a Jaw-Dropping Comeback, and We're Not Just Talking About Her Age

It's been decades since Niki Taylor sashayed down the runway as one of the most sought-after supermodels of the 1990s. But now, at 50, this blonde bombshell is back, and she's looking better than ever! The iconic beauty recently strutted her stuff on the catwalk for the Mott50 Edition & Coolibar Sun Safe Soirée fashion presentation in New York City, sending shockwaves through the fashion world.

But Niki's comeback isn't just about her stunning looks or her ability to still rock a runway with ease. No, this supermodel has got news that'll make your jaw drop: she and her husband, Burney Lamar, have become grandparents! That's right, folks; this beauty is now an OG (that's Older Grandparent) and has traded in her modeling days for diaper duty.

Niki's family life is the stuff of fairy tales. Married to Burney for over 14 years, they've got four adorable kids: twin sons Jake and Hunter, whose father is Niki's ex-husband Matt Martinez, and a daughter Ciel, and son Rex. It's clear that this supermodel has found her happy place – but don't get it twisted; she's still killing the game.

During the Mott50 Edition & Coolibar Sun Safe Soirée event, Niki revealed that becoming grandparents has brought a whole new level of energy to their household. "We recently became grandparents," she gushed to New Beauty. "We need our sleep! We go to bed early. It makes such a difference when you get a good night's sleep." Ah, who wouldn't want to be surrounded by little ones and get a good night's sleep?

Niki's comeback is a testament to her age-defying beauty and her commitment to staying relevant in the ever-changing world of fashion. She's been open about her views on aging, stating that it's all about your state of mind and what's inside, not just your appearance. "As long as you feel good and healthy, you can pretty much take on anything," she told The Scholarly Note.com.

But let's get real for a second; Niki hasn't always had an easy ride in the fashion industry. She's spoken candidly about feeling like she had a "shelf life" back in the day – a sentiment many models can relate to. However, with the recent shift towards diversity and inclusivity in the fashion world, Niki believes that this is the perfect time for her to make her comeback.

The supermodel has been open about her charitable work, particularly with the American Red Cross and the American Heart Association, both of which are close to her heart due to personal experiences. In 1995, her sister Krissy passed away from heart disease at just 17 years old – a tragedy that still affects Niki to this day.

But it's not all smooth sailing for Niki; she's also been open about the difficulties she faced after a near-fatal car accident in 2001. She was involved in a crash while being driven by then-boyfriend Chad Renegar, who lost control of the car and crashed into a utility pole. It's clear that this supermodel has been through her fair share of ups and downs – but you wouldn't know it from looking at her.

Niki's come a long way since her first CoverGirl campaign in 1992. She made history in May 1996 by gracing the cover of six different magazines – Vogue, Allure, Elle, Marie Claire, Self, and Shape – all in one month! This blonde bombshell was only 15 at the time, making her one of the youngest people to ever land a Vogue cover.

Fast-forward to today, and Niki is still slaying the game. She's been spotted on the runway, walked for top designers, and has become an icon in her own right. And let's not forget that Instagram-worthy moment when she shot her new CoverGirl campaign herself at home with her trusty iPhone – talk about a supermodel multitasking!

So, what does Niki attribute her timeless beauty to? "Timeless" is the word she prefers over "ageless," which she thinks better captures her views on aging. We couldn't agree more; this supermodel is truly ageless in every sense of the word.

As Niki continues to kill the game, we can't help but wonder what's next for this blonde bombshell. Will she be gracing the covers of top fashion mags again? Will she be strutting her stuff on the catwalk once more? One thing's for sure – with a spark like Niki Taylor, the fashion world will be ablaze for years to come!
