Helena Christensen, 52, poses with her lookalike son Mingus, 21, in new Victoria’s Secret campaign for Mother’s Day
The apple did not fall far from the tree with Helena Christensen’s lookalike son Mingus Lucien Reedus.
Mingus, 21, looks just like his supermodel mother – and his actor father Norman Reedus – in a new Victoria’s Secret campaign that was filmed for Mother’s Day.
Helena, 52, looks stunning in the black and white video and accompanying portrait shot, that was photographed by Cass Bird.

Also taking part in the campaign were models Grace Elizabeth, Sabrina Karlsson, and Mayowa Nicholas.
In a campaign video designed to pull at the heart strings, Mingus asks his famous mother: ‘What surprised you most about being a mom?’
She replies: ‘I wouldn’t say “surprised,” but overall, what a crazy, beautiful journey it’s been.’
Adding: ‘And how much you’ve taught me compared to what I feel I’ve taught you. It’s the best thing ever… [You] think about life from a completely different perspective.’

Meanwhile, Helena appeared flawless as she modelled a set of satin pajamas. She shares her only child with her ex Norman Reedus of The Walking Dead fame whom she dated from 1998 to 2003.
Mingus made his debut in the modelling world in 2017 when he walked the Calvin Klein runway show in London.
Helena and Norman, who named their son after jazz icon Charles Mingus, posed up together with him on Instagram in 2018 for his high school graduation.
Norman has been involved with Inglourious Basterds actress Diane Kruger since 2016 and they are now the proud parents of a two-year-old daughter.

Touching: In a campaign video designed to pull at the heart strings, Mingus asks his famous mom: ‘What surprised you most about being a mom?’
Back in 2019 she dished to the Daily Mail about some of the fitness secrets that have helped her maintain her bombshell figure.
‘I think it’s important to shake it up and do as many different forms of workout as possible, but also to incorporate nature into them,’ she said.
‘Swim in the ocean, swim in rivers, swim in lakes. Hiking, trekking, chopping wood – it’s the best way of working out, because it doesn’t really feel like a workout. It feels like you’re alive,’ Helena explained.
