She had just graduated from college, he was already working in the film industry.
The man, whose name she did not name, took her to his hotel to call her a taxi from his room. Instead, he went into the bathroom, came back naked, and attacked her.
Brooke Shields on the horrible moments: “It was like a struggle. I was afraid I would choke,” says the actress in the film. Out of fear, she hardly resisted, but froze. “I was just like, ‘Stay alive and get out of here.'”
After the incident, she called her friend and security chief Gavin de Becker, who told her the attack was a rape. She didn’t want to believe that and that’s why she has never spoken about it publicly to this day.
