Jill Goodacre Connick (born March 29, 1964) is an American actress and former model. She was one of Victoria's Secret's main models in the 1980s and early 1990s. She is married to Harry Connick Jr.
Goodacre appeared as herself in an episode ("The One with the Blackout") of the popular sitcom, Friends, in 1994. Though billed as Jill Connick, she was called Jill Goodacre throughout the episode.
She directed one of Harry Connick Jr.'s live performance videos (The New York Big Band Concert) in 1992, and she appears in several of his music videos.
Goodacre was a primary lingerie and hosiery model for the relatively new Victoria's Secret company in its mail-order catalogs and retail stores in the 1980s, and she appeared extensively in the catalogs. She, Stephanie Seymour, and Dutch model Frederique helped Victoria's Secret grow from a new company to one of the world's giants in women's lingerie, hosiery, swimwear, and clothing.
Goodacre was born in Lubbock, Texas, but grew up in Boulder, Colorado. She is the daughter of real estate broker William Goodacre, of Boulder, and Glenna N. Goodacre, a native of Lubbock who resides in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Her mother is now married to Dallas attorney Michael Lee "Mike" Schmidt. Goodacre has one brother named Tim.
Goodacre married Harry Connick Jr. in 1994 in a Catholic ceremony at St. Louis Cathedral in New Orleans. Together they have three daughters: Georgia Tatom (born April 17, 1996), Sarah Kate (September 12, 1997), and Charlotte (born June 26, 2002). The family currently lives in New Canaan, Connecticut.
