Finding Empowerment and Feeling Fabulous at 59
At 59, Brooke Shields is confidently embracing her age. But it wasn't always this way. Society often teaches women to fear aging, associating it with losing power and freedom. Brooke's journey reveals a different story.
Turning 50 marked a turning point for Shields. She discovered newfound freedom and empowerment, challenging societal norms about aging. Her upcoming book, "Brooke Shields Is Not Allowed to Get Old," dives into her personal experiences with aging and societal expectations.
In 2021, Shields faced a serious setback—breaking her femur in a freak accident. Dealing with ongoing pain and balance issues, she learned the importance of understanding her health. Her advice? Ask questions and stay informed.
Becoming an empty nester was a major emotional hurdle for Shields. Yet, she finds joy in watching her daughters, Rowan and Grier, thrive. Grier's recent walk at New York Fashion Week was a proud moment for Brooke.
Brooke isn't waiting for opportunities—she’s actively creating them. From writing books to exploring new creative ventures, she’s pushing boundaries.
Married to screenwriter Chris Henchy for over 20 years, Shields knows the value of effort in maintaining a relationship.
“We sometimes change and grow at different paces, but the people we were when we fell in love are still in there somewhere.” Shields embraces her journey with grace and confidence.
