Brooke Shields and model daughter Grier Henchy, 18, get matching tattoos with a sentimental meaning

Time:2024-05-07 22:48:36

Legendary supermodel Brooke Shields got a matching tattoo with her youngest daughter Grier Henchy, who turned 18 just last month. 

The 58-year-old New York native, who started her career at just 11 months, and teen  both opted to get a sentimental design inked to their wrists of two pairs of high heels facing each other, symbolizing 'Grier literally growing into Brooke's shoes.'

Grier, a self-professed fashion fiend with a penchant for swiping designer pieces from her mom's closet, is pursing a modeling career and has already been featured in a Mother's Day campaign for Victoria's Secret alongside Shields.

The duo documented the experience on an upcoming episode of celebrity tattoo artist Scott Campbell's Stupid Things for Love podcast, which will drop on May 13.

Campbell has spent the past two decades tattooing some of Hollywood's biggest names including Jennifer Anniston, Johnny Depp, and Robert Downey Jr.

His podcast follows his sessions with 'guests from all walks of life to learn more about their career, life experiences, personal stories and more.' 

The episode with Shields, who previously got a ladybug tattoo with her eldest child Rowan, and Henchy is teased to feature 'some very emotional moments' between the mother daughter duo. 

Last week, the Blue Lagoon star revealed that both Grier and Rowan, 20, sleep in her bed when her husband Chris Henchy, 60, is out of town. 

'You know, the minute my husband is on any type of work trip or gone or something, you know, they still sleep in the bed with me,' she said on SiriusXM's The Jess Cagle Show on Thursday. 

The actress added: ''We still watch rom-coms. They're my babies and they will never not be.' 

Brooke also discussed how her daughters are both going off to college in the fall, but that she doesn't think they'll be out of the house for very long. 

'Yeah, I've been avoiding thinking of it because people will say to me, "Oh, you're gonna be so relieved," and I just don't see it happening.'

'I was like, "Well, they're still gonna come back," and by the way, the cost of just living in this city is so prohibitive anyways that it may work in my favor.'

The proud mom added that she might not let them move back in for free.

'Maybe I'll start charging them rent though. That might be a good idea.'

Last month, Shields celebrated Grier's birthday, posting adorable pics featuring Grier on Instagram.

The beaming mother first posted a nostalgic photo capturing her planting a kiss on her then-toddler daughter's cheek.

She also curated a collage featuring recent snapshots of Grier intertwined with glimpses of her childhood.

'My baby girl is 18! I love being your mom and seeing the wonderful woman you’re growing into.. Happy golden birthday, Grier! I love you!' Brooke wrote in her caption.

The star shares Grier and Rowan with husband Chris, to whom she's been married since 2001.

Brooke and Chris welcomed Grier on April 18, 2006, in Los Angeles, coincidently at the same hospital and day that Katie Holmes gave birth to daughter, Suri Cruise.

Following in her mother's modeling path, Grier has recently stepped into the spotlight.

In May 2022, she made her debut in a Mother's Day campaign for Victoria's Secret alongside her mom.

'I asked her, and it was just such an emotionally beautiful period,' Brooke told People at the time.

'You know, I have resisted this. But to watch her handle herself in a way, it makes me realize, okay, she's a pretty strong character.'

She continued: 'So I don't feel like this business will eat her up. It was really fun to be in front of the camera with her.'
