Brooks Nader Defends Topless Boat Ride With Family

Reality TV star and model Brooks Nader has defended her decision to go topless during a family boat ride in Italy, stating she was "having the time of my life" and that her father, who is partially blind, did not notice. The incident, which occurred in August 2026, sparked a public debate about appropriateness after photos and videos of the outing in Sardinia went viral. In an interview with Entertainment Tonight posted on September 10, 2026, Nader, 29, addressed the online chatter. "I don't care if I'm not from Europe. I'm from Louisiana," she said. "I grew up in an all-girl household. We're always naked together as sisters." Nader explained that her father, Breaux Nader, was unfazed by the situation. "My dad's half blind, so he didn't even notice," she stated. "He was like, 'I don't care.' He has selective hearing and selective seeing." The family trip included her mother, Holland Nader, and sister Sarah Jane Nader. The photos showed Brooks wearing only white crochet bottoms while on the yacht.
