Brooke Shields has reflected on her feud with Tom Cruise after he publicly criticised her for taking antidepressants. In 2005, Cruise branded Shields “irresponsible” for revealing that she took antidepressants to help her cope with postpartum depression.

Brooke Shields revealed what went down with Tom Cruise after his infamous rant about her in 2005. For context, back in the mid-'00s, Brooke published a memoir called Down Came the Rain: My Journey Through Postpartum Depression. In it, she discussed taking an antidepressant after the birth of her first child, Rowan.

Brooke Shields is an open book in her new memoir, Brooke Shields Is Not Allowed to Get Old, which went on sale on. In it, Brooke shared how Tom Cruise apologized after shaming the Mother of the Bride actress on national TV for using antidepressants.

In her new book Brooke Shields Is Not Allowed To Get Old ( via E! ), the actress says she was “gobsmacked” by Cruise’s decision to call her out. She would eventually write a New York Times op-ed criticizing Cruise for making statements about a condition he could not experience.

Cruise's 2005 comments came after the release of her earlier memoir, D own Came the Rain, in which she detailed her experience with postpartum depression after welcoming daughter Rowan, now 21. Along with Rowan, Shields and husband Chris Henchy also share 18-year-old daughter Grier.

It wasn’t the world’s best apology, but it’s what he was capable of, and I accepted it,” the “Suddenly Susan” alum wrote in her new memoir.
