“Brooke Shields Is Not Allowed to Get Old: Thoughts on Aging as a Woman.”Shields said she underwent labia reduction surgery while in her 40s after experiencing discomfort, chafing and bleeding.

However, her surgeon informed her during a post-op checkup that he threw in a “little bonus” without her consent while she was under the knife — vaginal rejuvenation. “I’d be lying if I said I’m not embarrassed to share this very intimate information,” the actress wrote in her memoir, per Us Weekly. “But, if we are to change the way we approach and talk about women’s health, then we need to bring up the uncomfortable but very real issues.”Shields recalled that her surgeon seemed proud of his “twofer” while noting that she didn’t want the “irreversible” procedure in the first place.“He informed me that he threw in a little bonus,” Shields told the outlet in an interview published on Wednesday. “It felt like such an invasion—such a bizarre, like, rape of some kind.”She shared that “nothing pointed toward this need to be tighter or smaller or firmer or younger, especially there.”Despite not telling her husband of nearly 24 years, Chris Henchy, “for the longest time,” the former Calvin Klein model shared that she’s going public with her story to raise awareness.Shields said that “shame is no longer an option” in her book.The star is the mother to two daughters Rowan Henchy, 21, and Grier Henchy, 18.“The Blue Lagoon” actress has spoken about aging in the past, revealing it’s “not a graceful process.”“Isn’t it interesting how we even have to say, okay, well if you’re going to age, you’re going to have to do it gracefully,” she told Allure in June 2024. “Excuse me, but f–k you.”Shields insisted that people must give themselves.
