Brooke Shields initially was mortified when she walked into former President George H.W. Bush and his wife Barbara's bedroom about 15 years ago, but it has since become a "special" memory for her.

The "Blue Lagoon" actress spoke about the "sweet" friendship she formed with the politician and his late wife in the 1980s.

Brooke Shields has been well connected from the time she was a young girl—so much so, that she forged relationship with the Bush family in the '80s, which later led to an uncomfortable moment of her seeing former first lady Barbara Bush in her nightgown.
