Jane Fonda, 87, reveals the item she wears to bed 'because she's single'

Metroa day ago
Jane Fonda has found that being single at 87 certainly has its perks.
The American actress and activist has revealed the item she wears to bed, which might not be what you'd expect.
Jane makes different fashion choices now that she's not sleeping next to a man, having previously been married three times.
She wed her first husband, Roger Vadim, in 1965 and they were together until 1973. She was then married to Tom Hayden from 1973 to 1990, and Ted Turner from 1991 to 2001.
These days, she's enjoying the single life, leading to a surprising answer when asked what she wears at night.
'A flannel nightgown—because I'm single,' the Grace and Frankie star told The Times.
'I never wore them when I was with a man.'
Jane went on to describe her everyday style as 'simple', keen to inject more colour into her outfits now that her hair is grey.
'Even I can look good in those colours, and not a lot of people can say that,' she declared proudly.
She added that her most treasured clothing item is a pair of yoga pants 'because they are easy to put on and take off and they're comfortable.'
Relationship-wise, Jane is not thought to have dated anyone since 2017.
That year, she and music producer Richard Perry, who died last year, ended their relationship after eight years together. They also put their Beverly Hills home on the market for $13million (£9.6m) at the time, making him her last known boyfriend.
In the years since, she's made no secret of the fact that she doesn't care for another boyfriend.
Speaking on the SiriusXM Radio Show in 2018, she said: 'My current and next love are my girlfriends. I've had a good run. I've closed up shop.'
Then, in 2021, the film icon confessed to Harper's Bazaar that she had 'come to terms' with an absence of intimacy in her life.
'I don't want to be in a relationship, a sexual relationship, again. I don't have that desire,' she admitted.
'Do I fantasise? Yes,' she added, proceeding to detail her fantasy.
'I'll just put it out there. That I meet a professor or a researcher, somebody in that line who is really capable of loving, of cherishing a woman, so that I could test myself and see if I could show up. I think maybe now I could, but the problem is that, like a man, I would want a younger man.
'Isn't that awful? It's a thing about skin. I would want a younger man, and I'm too vain.'
As for past marriages, Jane has long made it clear that her third husband, Ted, was her 'favourite'.
After her breakup from the 86-year-old entrepreneur and producer, they remained close friends and attended high-profile events together.
However, it was Perry who had the most 'fulfilling' impact on her. More Trending
Speaking to The Sun in 2012 while they were still dating, she got a bit TMI: 'At 74, I've never had such a fulfilling sex life.
'The only thing I have never known is true intimacy with a man. I absolutely want to discover that before dying. It has happened with Richard; I feel totally secure with him. Often, when we make love, I see him as he was 30 years ago.'
When their separation was confirmed, Perry told Us Weekly that they were still on good terms.
'We communicate all the time. It couldn't be more amicable.'

FKA Twigs agrees to settle lawsuit alleging abuse from Shia LaBeouf

A lawyer for FKA Twigs, whose legal name is Tahliah Barnett, filed a request in Los Angeles Superior Court to dismiss her case against the 39-year-old American actor with prejudice, meaning it can't be filed again. A joint statement said: 'Committed to forging a constructive path forward, we have agreed to settle our case out of court. While the details of the settlement will remain private, we wish each other personal happiness, professional success and peace in the future.' First filed in 2020, the case had several trial dates scheduled in the years since, but those were always delayed well in advance. The two met and became a couple in 2018 after 37-year-old English singer and actor Barnett was cast in a supporting role in Honey Boy, an autobiographical film about LaBeouf's upbringing as a child actor. After an early 'charm offensive' from LaBeouf, the relationship became a 'living nightmare', her lawsuit said. She said LaBeouf put her in a constant state of fear and humiliation, once slammed her into a car, tried to strangle her and knowingly gave her a sexually transmitted disease. She said he also isolated her from family and friends, demanded absolute fealty and was angrily jealous of everyone from waiters she'd been polite with to her ex-fiance Robert Pattinson. She said that her experience was part of a pattern for LaBeouf. 'Shia LaBeouf hurts women,' the suit said. 'He uses them. He abuses them, both physically and mentally. He is dangerous.' LaBeouf said in a statement just after the lawsuit was filed that he had been 'abusive to myself and everyone around me for years. I have a history of hurting the people closest to me. I'm ashamed of that history and am sorry to those I hurt'. But he denied the accusations in the lawsuit in a 2021 filing, saying any injuries done or damages incurred by Barnett were not his doing. LaBeouf is best known for his roles in 2007′s Transformers and in 2008′s Indiana Jones and the Crystal Skull. He also starred in the 2019 film The Peanut Butter Falcon and in last year's Megalopolis. Known for her genre-bending musical styles, FKA Twigs worked as a backup dancer for other artists before releasing her studio debut, LP1, in 2014. She followed it with 2019's Magdalene and Eusexua from earlier this year. As an actor, she appeared in 2024's The Crow.
