She might be way more famous than him, but you’ve probably seen Brooke Shields’ husband Chris Henchy’s work on screen as a successful writer and producer in Hollywood. He would be her second husband. Shields had been with tennis champion Andre Agassi since 1993; they married in 1997 and split in 1999.
From her own account, it sounds like it was a tumultuous relationship. Reflecting on her guest stint on Friends, Shields said her role as one of Joey’s (Matt le Blanc) love interests in the 1996 episode “The One After the Superbowl, Part 1” resulted in Agassi storming out of the studio audience.
In an interview with The New Yorker published in March 26, 2023, she recalled: “Andre was in the audience supporting me, and he stormed out. “It was petulant behavior,” she said. “It co-opted it for me emotionally, because all of a sudden then my focus went to him… [He went home and] smashed all his trophies. Who wins for that? That’s just—don’t!” Agassi and Shields were married for two years and split. Shields and Henchy would meet that same year.
