No matter the year, it’s clear Brooke Shields has a tight-knit bond with her girls.
GettyIn 2023, the model’s documentary, “Pretty Baby: Brooke Shields” premiered in New York City. She included Rowan and Grier in the film and was delighted over their participation. Shields feels proud of the brilliant young women she raised.
“That last scene in the movie where they are confident and free. They’re confident, they’re being listened to, I’m proud of them speaking their mind,” the actress told PEOPLE at the time. “They are young women who are already beginning to find their own agencies. It took me until practically today.”
The Actress & Her Husband Celebrated Their 25th Anniversary This Year
Not many Hollywood romances are successful. Thankfully, Brooke Shields and Chris Henchy have managed to go the distance. This spring, they celebrated 25 years together as a married couple.
“Today marks 25 years married! A quarter of a century… does this make us an old married couple?? I love you, Henchy!!” Shields posted on Instagram in May. She attached gorgeous photos from their special day, which included their beloved pet dog.
GettyOver the years, fans have spotted the family at red carpet premieres. In 2008, Chris Henchy and Brooke Shields brought their young daughters to the “Horton Hears a Who!” premiere.
This year, Rowan Henchy announced she was joining the cast of “Next Gen NYC.” While Shields felt proud of her daughter for expanding her career, she admitted reality television made her incredibly nervous.
“Oh, I was sick to my stomach,” the actress revealed on “Jenna & Sheinelle,” remembering hearing the news for the first time. “I said, ‘Look, don’t be a [expletive]. You know? Be the one, the voice of reason.”
“If you’re gonna parlay this — I mean it’s Bravo and Peacock, [Rowan] wants to be in broadcast journalism, and she also likes being on camera — so I said, ‘See if you can translate that into another opportunity, and it’s a business choice you’re making,'” Shields added.
“NYC Next Gen” is available to stream on Peacock.
