Cynthia Bailey Shares a Look at Life Before She Had Noelle Robinson

Lucky for us all, Cynthia Bailey was feeling nostalgic this week and posted several stunning photos from her modeling days. One even included a special shout-out to her daughter, Noelle Robinson, but both received all sorts of comments on how awe-inspiring the images are, including from pals like Drew Sidora, Dr. Contessa Metcalfe, and Marlo Hampton, who took note of how beautiful the photos are by leaving emoji comments on Cynthia's Instagrams.

One photo shared by Cynthia features The Real Housewives of Atlanta cast member in a lob haircut and mint green sweater. “'Guess my age?' she wrote. "Hint: it was before I had [Noelle]." She also added the hashtags "#modelmonday," "#nyc," "#fashionmodel," "#beforeinstagram," and "#beforehousewives."

Tiffany Moon gave the perfect response: "Ageless babe." Meanwhile, Cynthia's hubby, Mike Hill, was floored by the image of his wife. He wrote, "I swear I thought this was a picture of Diahann Carroll. Beautiful!! I’m going to say 31."

While it doesn't appear like Cynthia confirmed her age in the photo, Noelle, we'd like to note, was born in November 1999.

Another throwback modeling photo features Cynthia looking fierce in couture (Thierry Mugler, to be exact). "'Confidence is armour/armor you can’t buy!'” she wrote, quoting writer Jeffrey Fry in the caption. She added the hashtag "#Paris," perhaps hinting at where she was when the snapshot was taken.

This photo also prompted some quick comments. Shamea Morton wrote, "Been a baddie." Kandi Burruss kept her response simple, "Wow!," as did Mike, who said, "Hot!!!"

Weeks before Cynthia shared some stellar vintage modeling pics, she shared the cutest throwback that just so happened to feature “baby Noelle!" this time. Noelle approved of the post with several heart emojis in the comments. Stephanie Hollman added, "This pic is precious Cynthia."
