Brooke Shields: "It's not easy for mothers"
In an emotional video, Shields announced on Instagram that her "two chicks have now left the nest". Shields tearfully explains: "It's not easy for the mothers."
She had already said in May that she still had to get used to the idea of a child-free life.
The actress' followers are understanding. "I know, Brooke. But it gets a little easier and always remember that we raised her to fly away," writes TV journalist Deborah Roberts. And news anchor Rosanna Scotto says: "Don't worry! They'll be back."
Meanwhile, 18-year-old Grier, who has now moved out, joked in the "People" interview that she worries about her mother as much as she does about herself.
Rowan, 21, added that Shields was "a wreck" when she moved out a year ago and should be flooded with work to distract her. She jokingly added that her parents could use the time alone at home to "rekindle the flame".
