London, Dec 4: Actress Brooke Shields has revealed she would love to have more kids but her husband is not so keen.
The actress has two daughters, Rowan Francis, eight, and Grier Hammond, five, with her husband Chris Henchy, reports femalefirst.co.uk.
'I would die for one. Unfortunately, my husband is not as amenable. So I either have to trick him or lie to him to get knocked up,' she said.
'He said to me the other day, 'I'm beginning to think that if I don't give this to you, you'll do it on your own'. Yeah, it's like, 'Don't test me. I'm very independent.' But I'm older so my eggs probably need a.

What ravishing little redheads!
Brooke Shields and Chris Henchy bring daughters Rowan Francis, 8, and Grier Hammond, 5, to the N.Y.C. premiere of the re-release of The Lion King 3D on Saturday.
The actress, 46, recently shared a story about her youngest daughter’s ill-fated big-screen moment.
“Grier went through hair and makeup and got her wardrobe and then refused to do it because all she wanted to do was the hair and makeup,” Shields laughs.
“I was like, ‘You’ll never make it in Hollywood!’”

Strike a pose!
Brooke Shields snuggled with her birthday girl, Grier Hammond — who turned 4 Sunday — while Rowan Francis, 6½, got a grip on dad Chris Henchy at the premiere of Furry Vengeance in Westwood, Calif.
Costarring Brendan Fraser, Shields’ latest film hits theaters April 30. Who’s holding down the fort while she’s away? The actress’ writer/producer husband.
“He really is a listener and he listens to our girls too,” Shields, 44, said recently. “Kids give you a lot of information all the time and he’s got patience. That’s the sweetest thing.”

A childhood spent acting and modeling is an experience Brooke Shields knows all too well. It is, however, one that her two daughters will not be sharing with their mother.
“It’s a high like you can’t imagine. It’s like a drug,” she says of the entertainment business in the April issue of Ladies Home Journal.
“But no, I don’t want them involved. Every day you’re told what you are not: You’re not short enough, you’re not thin enough, you’re not pretty enough. You’re always losing out.

Brooke Shields says her daughters are "lazy little children". The actress doesn't believe six-year-old Rowan Francis and Grier Hammond, three, will follow in her footsteps as child actresses because they are not interested in learning "tricks". When asked if the girls have an acting career ahead of them, she said: "They are lazy little children. When I try to get Grier to do tricks, she'll say 'No, I cannot.' Just flat out. I never even said that. "They're their own people. I don't think they have the patience for it. They're very theatrical and very dramatic, but all kids are." However, Brooke admits adopting her kids' attitudes could make her career easier. She added: "I should learn from Grier.
