Brooke Shields & Rowan Take A Stroll Through Soho

Brooke Shields was spotted in out Soho today (November 18) picking up her daughter Rowan Frances, 6, and a friend from school.

The 44-year-old recently opened up about her battle with postpartum depression saying that in her darkest moments she felt that she “should not exist” and that her “baby would be better off without [her]”.

Eventually she was diagnosed with a chemical imbalance: “I learned what was going on inside my body and what was going on inside my brain. I learned I wasn’t doing anything wrong to feel that way. That it was actually out of my control.”

“If I had been diagnosed with any other disease, I would have run to get help,” she added. “I would have worn it like a bagde… I didn’t’ at first – but finally I did fight. I survived.”

Brooke and husband Chris Henchy, who have been married since April 2001, are also parents to 3-year-old Grier.
