Brooke Shields says her friends are 'surprised she's not in rehab or a total train wreck' following her traumatic childhood

Brooke Shields revealed that her loved ones are always 'surprised' that she did not become 'a total train wreck' following her traumatic childhood and upbringing.

I have a friend who says, "I am surprised you are not in rehab or a total train wreck," the supermodel admitted to hosts Hoda Kotb and Jenna Bush Hager. She went on to become one of the most successful child models of all time, starring in a slew of campaigns for enormous companies like Gerber, Calvin Klein, and Vogue - and she soon expanded her career by stepping into the world of acting. In her 2014 memoir, There Was A Little Girl: The Real Story Of My Mother And Me, Brooke spoke further about her relationship with Teri, who became an alcoholic when the star was just an infant after her father, Frank, left them.
