    Brooke Shields has been telling her daughter to "never give up" as she pursues her own career

    The 60-year-old actress - who has Rowan, 22, as well as 19-year-old Grief with her husband Chris Henchy - made her name with films such as Pretty Baby and Blue Lagoon but revealed that her eldest is actually set to go into the world of journalism and has already started making waves in the industry


    She told E! News: "She wants to go into broadcast journalism and news.

    "She's been at different outlets. She's done their carpet stuff. She's so she's so appealing as a person.

    "I mean, I'm her mother, you know, but people love her, and they tell me all the time. They come out of the woodwork, like when I'm doing a morning show.

    "I just say, 'Never give up. Just keep going. She's going to be just fine."

    The former Hannah Montana star previously admitted that she actually got to "meet" her daughters all over again once they reached adulthood and moved out to make their own in the world, even though she was "terrified" at the thought of them leaving home.

    She told People: "I'm terrified to be an empty nester! All of a sudden, they're not yours anymore. When you realize they are their own human beings, you get to meet them again. To have them reveal themselves to you, it's a new type of relationship. I didn't mold them but I protected them enough so that they could become who they are, and I got out of the way.

    "They're going to have each other's back. They're both tough and strong-willed. The world is not going to undo them. I'm proud of who they are. I'm really going to miss them. I want to stay on the periphery but I'm also excited about what's ahead."
