Brooke Shields has lost her sex drive

Brooke Shields has lost her sex drive.

The 59-year-old actress - who is married to Chris Hency and has Roway, 21, as well as 18-year-old Grier with him - admitted that she struggled to do anything about her high libido when she was younger until she met her first serious boyfriend and now regrets her ways because she has now lost interest entirely.

Writing in her new book 'Brooke Shields Is Not Allowed to Get Old', she said: "I had a fervent sex drive when I was young, but I never felt like I could step into that appetite in the way that I wanted to

“I waited [until I was 22] because I had the weight of the world on me. And even once we started sleeping together, I never really let loose. Oh, how I wish I’d just let the lust take over!.

"And now here I am, more than thirty-five years later, sometimes pretending I’m asleep when I know Chris is in the mood. And that has nothing to do with Chris — he’s hot!"

The former 'Hannah Montana' star is going through all the "bodily" drawbacks of being a woman and feels "less appealing" to her husband than ever.

She said: "I’m going through all the bodily s*** that comes with aging as a woman even in the best of times — the thinning hair and the peach fuzz and the brand-new belly fat and vaginal dryness and the diminishing sex drive — and in my natural state I feel less appealing to him than I ever did before."
