Actress turned-writer Brooke Shields
Despite having dated several celebrities, Michael Jackson kept a close personal relationship with actress turned-writer, Brooke Shields. An upcoming issue of Rolling Stone magazine would be featuring Shields and her special connection with MJ. During the interview, Shields revealed her childish moments with Jackson and all the fun times they enjoyed in each other’s company. Shields admitted that their bond was really special that Michael had asked her to marry him several times probably out of fear of loosing their friendship.
As a quote from an article in The Daily Dish, Shields elaborated that
“There were times when he would ask me to marry him, and I would say, ‘You have me for the rest of your life, you don’t need to marry me, I’m going to go on and do my own life and have my own marriage and my own kids, and you’ll always have me’.” Shields says of her relationship to the one she called “her little prince” at Tuesday’s public memorial ceremony. Still, there was no romantic connection between them, the actress stresses. “I think it made him relax. He didn’t want to lose things that meant something to him.” she explains.
