Brooke Shields and her husband and two daughters have appeared in an ad for a brand of towels called Royal Velvet. The picture is cute enough although the towels? A little tacky. Anyway.
One part of me says “Not cool to sell your family”.
And another part says “Don’t be so judgemental. Her family, her decision. Everyone needs to make a buck. Why shouldn’t she?”
As I post this, the two parts are still fighting.
Helpfully (defensively?), Brooke issued a statement when the ad was released this week…..
Brooke said:
“At this point in my career, I only do projects that I believe in.
Royal Velvet made sense for me and my family because it felt authentic and
it is a classic brand with amazing products. A
royal moment for me is when one of my daughters holds my face in her hands
and says, ‘oh, so pretty mama,’ it makes me feel like a princess.”

I agree with Amy, no matter whose kids they are, they are being exposed. One would hope that Brooke would use her experience with the media to protect and counsel her children.
And Louise, to those of us on less than $30,000 a year between the two of us - you are not only rich, you are beyond my wildest dreams rich.
Louise honey, from where I'm standing with my fiance ($60,000) you are rich.
