Empty Nesters! Katie Holmes, Brooke Shields and More Stars Who Sent Their Kids Off to College in 2024


Katie Holmes, Brooke Shields and more stars have become empty nesters in 2024 with their kids off to college, and they're handling the change in different ways.

Last year the star said she and husband Chris Henchy were sad about younger daughter Grier heading off to Wake Forest this fall (big sis Rowen is also a student there). “We’ll see when we get there.” Cut to drop-off day when the Princeton alum posted a funny clip of herself gleefully sprinting out of Grier’s dorm room, joyfully announcing she’s an empty nester! “It hasn’t fully hit us yet, but not seeing him everyday is gonna be hard,” the TV chef posted alongside wife Lori as they unpacked in son Ryder ’s dorm.
