Grier shares an incredible resemblance with Brooke, and she will also be following in her footsteps, pursuing a modeling career. And while the actress was opposed to the idea at first, as she faced a series of struggles as a young model in the entertainment industry, she still supports her decision but wants her to attend college.

“I fought it for so long. It’s such a different industry now than it was [when I was a model],” she said on ‘Live with Kelly and Mark’ back in June, following the release of her documentary, where she details some of the difficult moments she experiences. “That’s brutal and backstage is just brutal. I never did runway, I don’t think I would’ve been able to handle it,” she added.
