While Kaia Gerber has recently been getting a lot of attention for following in her famous mother Cindy Crawford’s footsteps into modeling, her older brother Presley Gerber prefers to stay more out of the public eye. Despite this, the 25-year-old is steadily working on his own career and acknowledges the support he has received from his mother.
Presley, who is 25, and his 23-year-old sister Kaia recently participated in a rare joint interview with TODAY, discussing their experiences growing up with their iconic supermodel mother.
During the segment, which aired on May 8, Presley recalled being aware of his momâs fame from a young age.
Recalling their childhood, Presley shared, “It was definitely the attention, like when people would walk by and you’re like, ‘Oh my God, that’s Cindy Crawford.’ I was like, ‘Yeah, yeah. I think. I’m pretty sure it is.'”
Although Cindy introduced both children to the world of modeling earlyâKaia even appeared in commercials with her as a toddler and later shared a Vogue coverâshe made sure never to pressure them into it.
âYou are so not a stage mom,â Kaia told her, with Presley adding, âNot at all.â
Presley has already earned campaigns with fashion heavyweights like Calvin Klein, Moschino, Tommy Hilfiger, and Dolce & Gabbana. Now, both siblings are joining forces with Cindy and their father Rande Gerber for Vuoriâs Spring/Summer 2025 campaign, representing the California lifestyle brand as a family.
âI think itâs given my dad and I, and the rest of the family, as well, an opportunity to be creative in a way where we typically donât all have an interest in one thing,â Presley said. âI think that kind of opened up a new a new door.â
This latest endeavor marks a hopeful chapter for Presley, who has spoken openly about his mental health struggles. In a 2023 appearance on the Studio 22 podcast, he shared how personal experience has fueled his desire to help others.
“Having struggled with mental health, depression and some other things that come along with that, I think that whether I help one person or a hundred people get out of that place that I was in at one point in my life, that’s all I need to do,” he said.
“[Mental health] is an issue,” Presley continued. “It is such a big part of my life. It’s a 24/7 job, and there’s so much to it. That’s really what I want to do: help people, whether you’re depressed, you’re struggling with something that is having a negative effect on your body. I mean it could be anything, and there’s no judgment.”
