Brooke shares both daughters with her husband Chris Henchy. The couple have been married since 2001.
Brooke Shields has a strong bond with her daughters, but her relationship with her own mother, Teri Shields, was complicated. Teri was Brooke's manager for more than two decades and during that time, Brooke faced exploitation as a child actress in the entertainment industry while Teri struggled with alcoholism.
In her 2014 memoir, "There Was a Little Girl: The Real Story of My Mother and Me," Brooke shared the details of their difficult relationship.
It always seemed like I couldn't do enough for my mother. No matter what I said or did, she continued to drink and couldn't find true happiness. I felt powerless and questioned why my efforts weren't sufficient to help her overcome her drinking problem.
