Sharon Stone Reveals 'Basic Instinct' Nude Scenes Led to Child Custody Loss

Sharon Stone shared how her steamy and nude scenes from the movie Basic Instinct led her to lose her custody battle, noting she was misled into doing the scene. Stone and Michael Douglas starred as the leads in the 1992 neo-noir erotic thriller Basic Instinct, directed by Paul Verhoeven. While the film brought Sharon immense fame, her bold scenes and nudity became a wide topic of discussion and caused personal issues for her.

Sharon Stone married investigative reporter and executive editor of the San Francisco Chronicle, Phil Bronstein, in 1998. Two years later, the couple decided to adopt and welcomed their adopted son, Roan Joseph Bronstein, into their family in 2000. Michael Douglas recently dismissed rumors of an alleged relationship with Sharon during the film's production, mentioning he was head-over-heels in love with Jeanne Tripplehorn at the time.
