Brooke Shields only plans to pass her jewellery collection down to one of her two daughters.
The Blue Lagoon actress has Rowan, 22, and Grier, 19, with husband Chris Henchy but when she passes away, her younger daughter will receive her rings, bracelets and necklaces because she "understands" their value more than her older child.
She told Only Natural Diamonds: “Only my younger daughter [will inherit my jewellery].
“My older daughter has lost every piece I’ve ever given her. I literally cannot do it again.
"[Grier] understands the difference between real and ‘real’.
“It’s not about the gold or diamonds alone—she sees the history, the workmanship, the story behind the institution of these houses.”
The 60-year-old star feels “very attached to jewellery and diamonds.”
She joked: “That might sound obnoxious."
But she then explained why they are so important to her.
She said: “When you’ve worked hard, you’re not waiting to be validated — you do something for yourself. There’s a sense of empowerment in that."
Brooke learned the value of diamonds from her late mother Teri, who passed away in 2012.
She said: “My mom always said, ‘Buy yourself your own diamond — don’t wait to be given one from a man'.
“My mom bought me my first emerald-cut diamond. It’s very beautiful, and I got it set in a Verdura cuff.”
The Pretty Baby star has fond memories of buying jewellery to mark her travels with her mom.
She said: "Ever since I was a little girl, every time we’d go somewhere, we’d find a jewellery store — if we were in Asia, it was pearls; if we were elsewhere, it was diamonds or brooches.
“Maybe it’s because she grew up in Newark during the Depression era, in poverty, and jewellery represented what she aspired to have in life.”
Brooke recalled how she used to struggle with poorly-fitting runway samples during her career.
She said of the clothes: “They would throw runway samples on me, and my hands didn’t even fit in."
But as she has got older, Brooke has lost weight due to a femur injury and its effects on her body, but she doesn't feel at ease.
She said: “It messes with your head. Weight loss at this age is complicated."

Browns HC gives troubling Shedeur Sanders update ahead of Eagles game
On Wednesday, the Cleveland Browns learned that rookie quarterback Shedeur Sanders was dealing with an oblique injury that could sideline him for Saturday's game at the Philadelphia Eagles. However, it appears Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski could keep Sanders out of action through Cleveland's preseason finale against the Los Angeles Rams on Aug. 23. "He felt it early, I think, warming up, and then felt it throughout [individual drills] and we took a look at it," Stefanski told reporters on Thursday while speaking about what Sanders experienced on Wednesday, per Mary Kay Cabot of the Cleveland Plain Dealer. "If it’s a right guard, you can play through that. When it’s a quarterback, you kind of need that muscle to throw. So unfortunately, we’re going to put him down for a little bit here. We will treat it day to day and see how he responds." Stefanski said the Browns want "to be really careful" with the Sanders injury because quarterbacks "torque and twist their body" on pass plays. Despite performing well in his preseason debut last Friday, Sanders, the 2025 fifth-round draft pick, remained fourth on Cleveland's unofficial depth chart before his setback. Kenny Pickett is still attempting to recover from the hamstring injury that kept him out of the Browns' preseason opener against the Carolina Panthers on Aug. 8, so veteran Joe Flacco is on track to start Cleveland's Week 1 matchup versus the Cincinnati Bengals on Sept. 7. Meanwhile, 2025 third-round draft pick Dillon Gabriel will start against the Eagles this Saturday if it's determined his hamstring is healthy. Like Pickett, Gabriel spent the Carolina game as a spectator. "Injuries stink for all these guys," Stefanski added. "They don’t want to miss a rep for any reason. But, there’s a way to continue to prepare, continue to get better, even when you’re not getting those reps up because of injuries." Sanders seemed to have a shot at earning the QB2 gig after he completed 14-of-23 passes for 138 yards and two touchdowns in Cleveland's 30-10 victory over Carolina. He could now enter September as Cleveland's QB4 if Browns general manager Andrew Berry is serious about carrying four quarterbacks on the active roster for the Cincinnati game.
Steelers Offense Learned Harsh Truth About Themselves During Joint Practice With Buccaneers
The Pittsburgh Steelers recently finished up a joint practice with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers at Acrisure Stadium prior to their Preseason Week 2 matchup against each other. It's always nice to go against someone other than your own defense for a change, and the idea is that there is a lot for both teams to benefit from in seeing someone else on the other side of the line of scrimmage. It also helps that the two teams won't play each other in the 2025 regular season, so they can practice everything that they want to without necessarily giving plans away. Sometimes, the good thing about joint practices is understanding where your team still might be limited. After practice concluded and interviews were finished, the conclusion seemed to be that the Steelers still have a long way to go before being ready for the regular season, as reported by ESPN's Brooke Pryor. Outside of a dominant seven shots drill, it seemed like the Steelers had a rough practice. While filming most of practice was banned, there were some photos of wide receiver Mike Evans beating new defensive back Jalen Ramsey clean to the corner of the end zone for an easy score. Of course, there is still a little bit of time for the Steelers to clean up everything and put on a good show for Week 1. Resting most of their starters for Preseason Week 2 may not the greatest idea for that, however. After this game, there will be one more week of preseason before a week with no games. After that, it's put up or shut up time for this revamped team. Obviously, when you have a brand new starting quarterback and top wide receiver, it can take some time for the whole offense to click as a collective unit, although that's not an excuse for the pass that DK Metcalf reportedly dropped during the two-minute drill. Now is not the time for the team to take things easy. With a short week of practice between Preseason Week 2 and 3, the cleanup phase could come during the upcoming week without NFL football. Steelers Hopefully React To Wake-Up Call Like Young Receiver Did During training camp, wide receiver Roman Wilson was a bit underwhelming to start, and his spot on the roster was suddenly questionable. That was exactly what he needed to realize that he had to work nonstop if he wanted to reach his potential. Since then, he has performed well and has made a case for a spot in the starting lineup, let alone the 53-man roster. That's exactly how the whole team needs to respond. Even Aaron Rodgers, the starting quarterback, needs to work like his job is on the line if he wants to gain chemistry with his new receivers, even though there is likely zero chance that he gets cut, or even benched. If they try to coast through the season, the infamous non-losing season streak may finally come to an end, and massive changes will have to be made.

Green Bay Packers: Slo-Mo Video Shows Javon Bullard’s Nasty Work in Colts Practice
Defensive back Javon Bullard has been a versatile weapon for the Green Bay Packers, proving his abilities to do his job whether through playing as a cornerback or a safety. Entering his second year in the league, Bullard has learned to embrace such a fluid role for the Packers after not being fully appreciative of it at first. “I love it. Now, I’m embracing it,” Bullard said, per Mike Spofford of Packers.com. “Last year, to be honest with you, maybe I felt like it was a negative. Now I’m thinking of it like a positive.” Added the former Georgia Bulldogs star: “They don’t know where (number) 20 gonna line up.” In his first season in the NFL, Bullard, who was taken in the second round (58th overall) of the 2024 NFL draft by the Packers, recorded a pass defended, a fumble recovery and 90 combined tackles. After getting just a 52.3 overall grade from Pro Football Focus, there is plenty of room for Bullard to grow, and he could make that big step in the 2025 campaign. The Packers are expecting more from their defense in the second year of Jeff Hafley’s tenure as the team’s defensive coordinator. Bullard makes noteworthy play in Green Bay Packers’ joint practice with Colts During Thursday’s joint practice with the Colts, Bullard made a highlight play that was posted on social media by the Packers. After Colts quarterback Daniel Jones connected with wide receiver Adonai Mitchell, Bullard came from behind and forced the ball from Mitchell’s hands. The Packers are counting on Bullard to make a leap forward in 2025, but he also knows that playing his position means failures are inevitable on the field. “I’m a DB, man, you’re going to get beat,” Bullard said during training camp. “You can’t get mentally down on yourself. “We’re hard on ourselves. We challenge ourselves. We work our butt off every day, and when the results don’t add up, you can’t get down.” The Green Packers have two more preseason games to play, including this Saturday’s meeting with the Colts at Lucas Oil Stadium, where Bullard could have an opportunity to help Green Bay’s defense shine after getting lit up last week by the New York Jets.
Canucks Linked to 20-Goal Star Amid Maple Leafs Rumors
As the NHL offseason winds down, there are still a few quality players out on the free agent market. Teams have been finalizing their rosters for the new season, but there can always be room to add. One of the better names available is center Jack Roslovic, who played with the Carolina Hurricanes last season. Roslovic could bring real depth and scoring to any team, and it's a little strange why he remains unsigned at this point. The veteran has drawn interest from multiple teams around the NHL, with the Toronto Maple Leafs being one of the most talked-about. But NHL insider Frank Seravalli has now thrown another name into the hat: the Vancouver Canucks. Vancoyver has been busy this offseason putting its roster together, and it could use more depth across the board. Bringing back star Brock Boeser came as a surprise to many people around the league, but the Canucks want to go after a title. The team just barely missed the postseason last year, and the front office has been trying to bring more talent to the team. Adding a player like Roslovic to the mix could help the squad become even more dynamic out on the ice. Last season with the Hurricanes, Roslovic scored 22 goals and 17 assists on the year. His abilities along the lines for the Canucks could help this squad return to the postseason, and he can be a dangerous presence on the ice. It remains to be seen what Roslovic will do, but the Canucks could be an intriguing option. Roslovic is arguably the best free agent left on the market, so he will have some power in how things go down.
