Brooke Shields She did not have a child with her ex-husband. Andre Agassi — a decision she says turned out to be a blessing in disguise.
“I'm glad I never got pregnant with my first husband because it would have been a disaster,” Shields, 59, wrote in her latest memoir. Brooke Shields isn't allowed to get old:Thoughts about aging as a womanpublished on Tuesday, January 14. “When we broke up he made that very clear.”
Shields alleged in her book that Agassi, 54, told her to “be thankful we didn’t have children” when they separated “because I wouldn’t have made it easier for you.”

“One of the reasons I married Andre was because I liked being in a relationship with someone more famous than me,” Shields explained elsewhere in the memoir. “After a lifetime of always being focused, it was a relief to be able to slip into the background a little bit. He was a brave man too, and I liked that.”
On the other hand, Shields described her marriage as a “controlling and strict relationship” and shared a discussion she had with Agassi about her body.
“When I would open up my insecurities to my first husband, he would always say, ‘I wish you saw yourself the way I see you.’” However, when I said, “Would you still love me if I was big and fat?” “I never expected his response,” Shields wrote. Noting that she was referring to herself as a pregnant woman.
Agassi's response, according to Shields, was: “I love you too much to let you get big and fat!”
Shields admitted that this was an “unfair question” to ask but she “certainly did not expect” this response.
“I started to spin a little bit,” she continued. “But we all know how this relationship ended, so let's move on.”
After their divorce, The shields moved with Chris Henchy. She met Henchy in 1999 “at a gym on the Warner Bros. lot” while she was still married to Agassi.
