Brooke Shields recalled running ‘butt naked’ from the room after losing her virginity to Superman star Dean Cain when she was 22 years old.
The recollection came in the new Hulu documentary about Shields’ life, Pretty Baby: Brooke Shields.
In the documentary, the 57 year old said she felt ‘regret’ about how she first had sex with Cain, and that he was ‘more comfortable with the sexual part’ of their relationship than she was.
The couple dated when they were both students at Princeton University, and Shields recalled how she was more interested in ‘the love and the commitment’ side of their relationship, and that they taught each other about one another while together.
In the documentary Shields explores her complex life, which included posing nude as a young girl and being publicly sexualized in show business throughout her teens.

Shields laughingly recalled her first time sleeping with Cain when she was a junior in college.
‘When we finally had sex, I immediately ran out of the room, ran down the hall butt naked, just running. I didn’t know where I was going,’ she said
‘He ran after me with the duvet and grabbed a hold of me and said ‘Where are you going?’ He said ‘I’m not going anywhere, I’m not leaving you, you’re the same person’ he got it immediately and I just cried.’
‘I wanted to jump into the personal relationship and the love and the commitment,’ she said in the documentary. ‘We had to teach each other about each other.’
She explained how she was baffled by her reaction to sex at the time, saying ‘I feel bad for that girl.’
‘She was old enough to own her own body for real. And just I couldn’t get there at that moment.’
In her 2015 memoir, There Was a Little Girl, The Real Story of My Mother and Me, Shields previously described how her reaction was spurned by her mother’s possessiveness.
‘I believe she wanted me to stay hers alone,’ Shields wrote. ‘She believed in an absolute hold she had on me and growing up, and having sex, would mean that I was leaving her.’
‘It should have been what I had wished for myself, but in an instant, guilt slapped me in the face. Instead of giving in to what was a loving, and emotionally safe, relationship, and escaping into the most intimate and deserved moment, I began to cry deeply and silently and I got so overwhelmed that I jumped out of my bed.’

In the two-part documentary which aired April 3, Shields explored her complicated relationship with her mother, who looked on while she was forced to seductively kiss Keith Carradine, then 27, in 1978 film Pretty Baby in which she played a prostitute at just 11-years-old.
Ms Shields, 57, said she struggled to understand how her mother Teri Shields did not intervene as she revealed her own daughters, Rowan, 19, and Grier, 16, refuse to watch it.
In the documentary, Rowan said ‘It’s child pornography! Would you have let us [do that] at the age of 11?’
Shields replied ‘No’ as she was overcome with emotion.
The star’s mother was an alcoholic who died in 2012. Shields, an only child, said she could not be angry at her as her mother was so insecure.
The actress long deflected the blame faced by her mother – who allowed Shields to pose nude for a Playboy publication at the age of 10, but Shields now admitted ‘I don’t know why she thought it was all right. I don’t know.’

The incidents weren’t the first she was sexualized by the media. At 15 she shot ‘Blue Lagoon,’ then came ‘Endless Love.’ Both featured sex and nudity, while she also appeared scantily clad in a Calvin Klein denim advertisement campaign at the same age.
When she was 16 and a global star, a family friend and photographer tried to sell nude photos he took of her when she was only 10. Her mother sued and the family went to court but the photographer won.
Shields has been approached about documentaries before and always said no. But now with a kid going off to college, and with the encouragement of her friend Ali Wentworth and a secure feeling about her life brought on by years of therapy, Shields felt the time was right.
She has recently admitted that even in her books, she wasn’t telling the whole truth when it came to the nude photos of her as a child.
‘It was too much for me to cop to that, really,’ Shields said. ‘Writing about it just broke me. It was her that I was protecting.’
