All About Brooks Nader’s Parents, Breaux Nader and Holland Greene Nader

Brooks Nader has the full support of her parents, Breaux Nader and Holland Greene Nader.

The couple raised Brooks in a small town outside of Baton Rouge, La., with their three other children: daughters Mary Holland, Grace Ann and Sarah Jane Nader. Although the four sisters grew up in the small southern town, they have since moved to New York City together to pursue modeling.

Brooks got her big break in the modeling world in 2019 when she won the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issue’s nationwide Swim Search. She went on to appear in the issue from 2019 to 2022 before becoming a cover girl in 2023. After Brooks scored the coveted cover, both of her parents celebrated her success on social media.

“Our girl on the COVER of the iconic Sports Illustrated!!! So proud of the hard work she’s done to reach this milestone moment!!!” Holland captioned a photo of her daughter on the cover, while Breaux wrote in his own post, “Beauty. Character. Grit. Drive. Love. All this and more has landed Brooks on the cover of @si_swimsuit !! A well deserved honor @brooksnader. I am incredibly proud of you❤️.”

Brooks’ relationship with her parents and her sisters is featured on their reality show, Love Thy Nader, which follows the four sisters as they launch their modeling careers, live in N.Y.C. and juggle their personal lives.

Here’s everything to know about Brooks Nader’s parents: Breaux Nader and Holland Greene Nader.

They married in 1995

Breaux and Holland married on Aug. 5, 1995, and celebrated 30 years of marriage in 2025. Prior to their latest milestone, both Breaux and Holland have honored their relationship on social media.

In August 2020, Holland celebrated their 25th wedding anniversary by sharing photos of them over the years — including from their wedding, traveling together and attending Louisiana State University football games.

“25 years🎉So thankful for this adventure that started as kids with rice in our hair and that in some ways, we are just getting started! 🎉❤️,” she captioned the post.

For their 20th anniversary in 2015, Breaux posted a photo of the two of them and wrote, “Celebrating 20 years with the woman of my dreams @hnader!”

They have four daughters

After two years of marriage, Breaux and Holland became parents when they welcomed their first daughter, Brooks Claire, on Feb. 7, 1997. Over the next five years, they welcomed daughters Mary Holland in October 1998, Grace Ann in April 2000, and Sarah Jane in February 2002.

The family of six is extremely close, and all four sisters have spoken about how their parents prioritized their family above all else.

“Their biggest thing was always that we support each other. Take care of your sisters and never build up animosity,” Mary Holland told The Daily Front Row in February 2023. “We were all so close in age we were so tight knit — matching pigtail braids and clothes everywhere we went! It definitely enabled us to live in a little bubble together.”

Brooks added to The Daily Front Row in June 2024 that the entire family is in “constant communication.”

All four sisters live in the Soho neighborhood of N.Y.C. and have continued growing closer in their adulthood. After Brooks made a name for herself in the modeling world with Sports Illustrated Swimsuit, she encouraged her three younger sisters to pursue a similar path.

“I’m trying to be a role model to them, they’re all models as well, so I gave them a little something to put on their wishlist,” she told PEOPLE in 2023, referring to her Sports Illustrated Swimsuit cover. “I think they can achieve it. Anything’s possible.”

Since then, all of her sisters have signed with various modeling agencies, with Brooks at Next Management, Grace Ann and Mary Holland with Ford Models and Sarah Jane represented by Freedom Models. The sisters have since worked on several modeling gigs, fashion campaigns and even joined Brooks for a performance on Dancing with the Stars.

Breaux works as a senior financial advisor

Breaux is a senior financial advisor at Longbridge Wealth Management within Wells Fargo Advisors. In his job, Breaux “manages investment portfolios and provides customized planning for individuals, trusts and nonprofit organizations,” according to his biography.

“I help clients build wealth and take time to examine multiple elements of their financial life, including asset and liability management, insurance, estate planning strategies and tax implications. I am a Senior Financial Advisor and have been helping clients succeed financially since 2002,” he wrote in his LinkedIn profile.

Breaux has received several awards and honors over the years — including a Forbes Best-in-State Wealth Advisor award — and is a member of the Wells Fargo Advisors Financial Network Platinum Council.

“Away from the office my wife Holland and I enjoy visiting our four daughters in New York,” he added on his LinkedIn. “I also enjoy supporting the LSU Tigers, playing golf and tennis as well as reading, travel and spending time with family and friends.”

While Breaux is a professional financier, he also lets loose with his daughters, and Brooks joked to The Daily Front Row in 2024 that he is “turning into a Nader sister.”

“If you tell us something or do something with us, you should bet your bottom dollar that our dad knows,” she told the outlet.

They raised their daughters in Louisiana

Breaux and Holland raised their four daughters in Maringouin, La., a small town outside of Baton Rouge.

“[Maringouin] means mosquito in Cajun French,” Brooks told the New York Post in May 2023. “It really did have a lot of mosquitoes because it was between two bayous. It’s really gross now that I think about it.”

Brooks called their upbringing “chaotic,” as all four daughters were born close together.

“We had humble beginnings, living on my grandparents’ property in a small, two-bedroom house. We are very close in age — all four of us are five years apart — so we entertained ourselves and played in mud piles,” she told the outlet. “Being Southern we were into bows, hair and smock dresses. My mom thought it was adorable. We went to church every Sunday at 8 a.m. in our dresses and bows and stayed for three hours.”

Both Breaux and Holland are major Louisiana State University football fans and frequently brought all four kids to games when they were growing up.

Breaux’s dad, Dr. Sam Nader, has been the university’s Assistant Athletic Director for Football Operations since 2000 and is one of the longest-standing members of the football staff, per his LSU biography. Although none of the girls attended LSU, the family still attends football games and supports the local team.

Brooks says Holland is her biggest fan

Although Holland and Brooks have been close for their entire lives, they developed an even deeper relationship when Holland started assisting with her oldest daughter’s career.

“My mom came with me to the Swim Search audition in 2018 in Miami and just waited in the lobby for me,” Nader recalled to Sports Illustrated Swimsuit in May 2022. “I kept getting advanced to the next rounds, and she stuck around even after I told her to leave. She just kept crying every time I would advance.”

After Brooks’ career began to take off, she continued bringing her mom along for the ride and traveled the world with her.

“I’ve had some big shoots in China over the past couple of years, and I’ve been taking my mom,” Brooks said. “She’s gotten to travel more than ever with me, and those are my favorite memories. We’ve gotten a lot closer over time, which is a big change from high school when we were much more combative. I’ve grown a whole new appreciation for her.”

They support their daughters’ careers and reality show, Love Thy Nader

The Nader sisters put their lives on display like never before while starring on their own reality television show, Love Thy Nader. The series, which premiered on Freeform on Aug. 26, follows the four sisters as they work, date and live in N.Y.C.

“Born and raised in Louisiana, the four of us always dreamed of moving to New York to chase big-city dreams,” the sisters told PEOPLE in a joint statement ahead of the premiere. “It felt a world away. And yet — here we are. Four sisters, all in our 20s, living together in NYC. Working, dating, laughing, learning, and building a life we never could’ve imagined … side by side!”

The series features cameos from Breaux and Holland, and the couple attended the Los Angeles premiere in August 2025.

“Love Thy Nader Premier- what a night! Here we Geaux! Brought some gumbo from home and it was a hit! 🎉🎉❤️😊,” Holland captioned photos from the party.

Meanwhile, the two have continued supporting their daughters by watching the show with them. After the sisters got their nipples pierced in one of the episodes, Brooks posted a TikTok of Breaux watching the candid scene and captioned the video, “God bless Breaux Nader.”
