In an interview published last month, Coco Austin defends her decision to continue breastfeeding her five-year-old daughter Chanel Nicole Marrow, who will turn 6 on November 28, 2021.

“Chanel still likes my boobs,” Coco told Us Weekly. “It’s a big bonding moment for a mother and your child.”

“Why take that away from her?” Coco added. “If she doesn’t want it, all right, that’s where you stop it. But I’m not just going to say no.”

Coco made clear that Chanel also eats steak and hamburgers.” On March 13, 2020, the 42-year-old model wrote on Instagram about her decision to continue breastfeeding.

“At a time when the world feels like it’s coming to an end.. suck up as much love as you can!” Coco revealed.

“I know the moms out there will appreciate this pic! I’ve been getting a lot of props in the breastfeeding community and get tons of emails from women/moms appreciating me bringing light to the subject.”

“I write a baby blog about my journey with Chanel and soon I will write about what it’s like to continue boob time with a 4-year-old,” Coco continued.

“I get tons and tons of requests that want me to speak on it! At this point in nursing it’s just for comfort and believe me the girl loves meat so it’s not like she isn’t eating real food…😁Thank you to all that understand my view. I see most of you are so eager to side with me and I too root for you in your journey as well. Us moms are connected 💗”

The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends continued breastfeeding along with introducing appropriate complementary foods for 1 year or longer.

In April 2013, buxom blonde Coco Austin and her two bulldogs attended Mix 94.1’s Pet-a-Palooza event in Las Vegas. The massive outdoor music festival is hosted by the radio station every spring.

The reality TV star chose a red hot look that was pretty hard to miss — a white tee over red high-waist hot pants and a pair of equally red heel-less wedges.

And as if that wasn’t enough red, she wore the outfit with matching red lips, red earrings, and a red watch, too!

Well, how do you like Coco’s red hot look? Can you ID her red heel-less shoes? Are those from Jeffrey Campbell? Maybe from Giuseppe Zanotti? Or is it a pair from Alexander McQueen? What do you think?

We honestly had a difficult time searching for Coco’s wedges. However, if you like it, here are similar styles from Qupid and Chinese Laundry that’ll do the trick just fine. These may not be as tall, but both will serve the same purpose.
