Andre Agassi was married to Brooke Shields for two years in the 90s. Now the actress spoke about her ex-marriage.
Her own mother had Brooke Shields (58) pose naked for “Playboy” when she was just ten years old, followed by the role of a child prostitute in “Pretty Baby” and, at the age of 14, an extremely revealing role in the film “The Blue Lagoon”: in one In a new interview with AARP magazine, Hollywood star Brooke Shields spoke about how grateful she is to her ex-husband Andre Agassi (53) for helping her separate from her mother Teri Shields (1933 – 2012) as manager .
Andre Agassi and Brooke Shields married in 1997
In 1997, Brooke Shields married tennis star Andre Agassi. The marriage only lasted two years, but she doesn’t regret it for a second. “I think we enter into different relationships for different reasons,” says the now 58-year-old, who was in the spotlight very early on through her film roles and was celebrated as a teen idol.
With the help of Andre Agassi, she “separated” from her overprotective and alcoholic mother as manager. She wasn’t strong enough to break away from her mother on her own. “I kept falling behind.” She replaced her mother with a real agent – which she repeatedly referred to as a “divorce”.
Brooke Shields was able to “kick back” with Andre Agassi
In addition, it was good for her not to be as in the spotlight as he was alongside the then tennis star. “With Andre it also felt good to feel smaller than the other person because he was so famous and number 1 in the world. Everywhere we went he had loads of bodyguards. I could relax because of it “It wasn’t my world. He was the first one out of the car when we went to events. That was a real respite.”
After her marriage to Agassi ended, she soon met the author, producer and director Chris Henchy (59). She has been married to him since 2001. Their first meeting was a real Hollywood meet-cute: her dog had run away on the studio lot and Henchy brought him back to her. “He makes me laugh,” she explains in the interview. “I think I always knew I needed something solid and normal. And he’s a very, very good father. He goes to every basketball game, every volleyball game. And the kids love being around him too.” The couple have two daughters – Rowan, 20, and Grier, 17 – and live in New York.
