Jane Seymour's key to staying fit at 74 without strict diet

Jane Seymour's key to staying fit at 74 without strict diet

Fox News22-02-2025

Jane Seymour has a few tricks up her sleeve when it comes to maintaining her looks while balancing a healthy lifestyle.
Seymour, 74, listed several health tips that have helped her stay youthful – and they don't involve a strict diet.
"People ask me if I have a cheat day with my diet, and I respond that I am never on a diet, I just make good choices and stick with them," Seymour told the Daily Mail.
"If you think you are on a diet, you will lose track, you will cheat," she argued. "But if you find healthy foods you really love, that make you feel good, you never feel shorted."
The "Live and Let Die" actress detailed her healthy diet tips as she allows herself one big meal a day at 1:30 p.m.
"If you think you are on a diet, you will lose track, you will cheat."
"I start the day with coffee and hard-boiled eggs for protein, and it isn't till later, around lunchtime, that I have a full meal, because then I can really enjoy it."
As for her dining preferences, Seymour pointed out that she loves the "Mediterranean way of eating."
"It works so well, and it tastes good. It includes a lot of delicious food like tomatoes, olives and fish."
The former model shared that she grows a lot of her own vegetables, as she snacks on cucumbers and celery with hummus throughout the day.
"I do love nuts," she added. "I am a savory person, I like the salt."
Meanwhile, her fitness routine consists of lifting light weights and incorporating Pilates into her day.
"You have to keep moving!" Seymour said.
Although the "Dancing with the Stars" alum admitted she stays away from weight-loss drugs, including Ozempic, Seymour takes an antioxidant elixir, which she said helps "fight signs of skin aging."
Seymour's comments came after she showed off her ageless look during New York Fashion Week.
Earlier this month, the "Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman" actress strutted her svelte frame in a red mini dress and sky-high heels for New York Fashion Week's Nardos Fall 2025 show at the Plaza Hotel on Fifth Avenue.
Seymour shared a glimpse of the show's backstage glamour as she was dressed and primped for the catwalk.
"This is going to be fun," Seymour said in a video posted on her Instagram, as she called her fellow models "beautiful, magnificent creatures."
The "Harry Wild" star joked, "I am substantially older and shorter than all the models here, but happy to be here."
Seymour opened the show in an eye-catching one-shoulder mini dress with a floral design, which she paired with beige, pointed-toe pumps.
Although not a professional model, the actress has never been afraid to flaunt what she's got.
After first posing for Playboy pictorials in 1973 and 1987, she became the magazine's oldest model at 67 years old in 2018.
"I feel much sexier now than I ever did when I was younger," Seymour told Playboy at the time. "Then, I was like, 'Oh gosh, I'm supposed to be sexy. What is that?!'"
She added, "There's an enormous freedom in having lived as long as I have. Like my father used to say, I'm comfortable in my own skin. I'm not trying to prove anything to anyone. When you're younger, it's all about 'Look at me.' I'm not trying to get anyone to look at me."

Former Olympic Gymnast Mary Lou Retton Addresses DUI Arrest: ‘I Make No Excuses'

Following her arrest last month for driving under the influence, four-time Olympic gold medalist Mary Lou Retton said she takes 'full responsibility' for her actions. 'What happened was completely unacceptable. I make no excuses,' she said in a statement to the Associated Press. 'To my family, friends and my fans: I have let you down, and for that I am deeply sorry. I am determined to learn and grow from this experience, and I am committed to making positive changes in my life. I truly appreciate your concern, encouragement and continued support.' More from Rolling Stone Macklemore's Seattle Home Robbed, Nanny Sprayed With Bear Mace 'How Much Does My Body Cost?': Sean Combs' Ex Faces Fiery Cross-Examination Lil Durk Denied Bail Again in Murder-for-Hire Case On Tuesday, Retton entered a no contest plea to driving under the influence stemming from the May incident and was fined $100, a standard for first-time, non-aggravated offenses, her attorney Edmund J. Rollo told the outlet. Retton was arrested in West Virginia on May 17 after police in Fairmont pulled her over following a report of a person driving a Porsche erratically. According to a criminal complaint, the former athlete smelled of alcohol, was slurring her words, and failed a field sobriety test. Officers also allegedly saw a wine container in the passenger seat. Retton was charged with 'driving under influence of alcohol, controlled substances, or drugs,' and released from custody after paying a $1,500 personal recognizance bond. At 16, Retton became the first American woman to win the all-around gold medal in gymnastics at the 1984 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles. Retton has been retired for more than 30 years, having left after winning the American Cup all-around competition for the third time in 1985. In October 2023, the Dancing with the Stars alum was hospitalized in the ICU with a rare form of pneumonia. Retton previously detailed the severity of her illness in an interview with Today. 'This is serious, and this is life, and I'm so grateful to be here. I am blessed to be here because there was a time when they were about to put me on life support,' Retton shared.

Passenger's life changed forever after chance encounter on flight: ‘Meet-cute fantasy'

It wasn't exactly love at first flight — but somewhere between the airplane aisle and window seat, a little turbulence turned into a whole lot of sparks. When Los Angeles native Megan Meza noticed a 'cute' guy approach her row on an April 2022 flight to London, she immediately began fantasizing about an airplane romance between her and the handsome stranger. Little did she know, the man would be Brit Freddie Gershinson, who would eventually become her husband-to-be. 'I immediately thought he was cute. I saw him pause near our row, and I thought, 'There is no way he is going to sit next to me',' she told the Daily Mail. 'So when he put his backpack on the seat, I couldn't believe it. It's like every single girl's dream to have the cute guy sit next to you in some meet-cute fantasy. 'And here it was suddenly happening. I actually texted my mom (who was sitting in a different row) along with my sister and friends, being like, 'CUTE GUY IN MY ROW. SOS.'' Initially, Meza was too nervous to chat up the six-foot-two stranger, but when he dropped his AirPods and couldn't find them, she piped in with advice to look at the row behind. While she 'had no other expectations,' the pair spoke for six hours during the flight, speaking over the woman sitting between them in the middle seat. 'At this point, I was like, okay, this is fun and flirty. Like he had every opportunity to go back to his music, but we kept chatting,' she dished. 'I [couldn't believe I was] having a connection with a total stranger,' she said, adding they stopped chatting when the cabin lights dimmed at night. But Gershinson was determined to keep the conversation going. He passed over his phone, asking, 'Have you got a boyfriend?' in the Notes app. Meza quickly responded 'No' with a smiley face. After the flight landed, the pair exchanged phone numbers and the Brit said he returned to London 'with a smile on his face' because of her.' 'At that point I was like — I have never met a man who is so confident and upfront with his emotions and it sucks that I will probably never see him again,' Meza said. 'We continued to text immediately after the flight. About three days after we met, he called me and said he hadn't felt a connection like this before, and wanted to see if I would come stay with him in London [after my family vacation].' Unable to adjust her return date, Meza returned to the U.S. but told Gershinson that if they were still texting in the summer, she'd visit him. Three months later, after they called each other 'every day' on the phone, she returned to London. 'On the third day [of the trip], he took me to meet his parents for tea, then surprised me with an early birthday dinner, and then we met his friends for drinks,' Meza revealed. 'It was that night I thought, I can't go back home and that be the end of it. Everything was too natural – his family, his friends, our connection. 'He was so intentional, kind, and so confident in who he was. So that night, we had a long talk about all of it, and we made it official. His words were, 'I like you too much to not try to make this work.' So we did.' Three years after their meet-cute, the happy couple is getting married. Meza urged singles to keep an open mind because you'll never know when you'll meet your happily ever after. 'I saw a man who I thought was very cute, and I used that as an opportunity to have this 'yes' moment on a plane where it's like, I'm never going to see him again. What do I have to lose?' she told PEOPLE. 'Dating is a drag and with Freddie, I never felt like we were playing games. If I had known this was waiting for me, I wouldn't have wasted another day crying over boys who didn't deserve the tears,' Meza added. 'So don't lose hope. The right person is out there and it would have sucked to settle and never have found this.'

White Lotus' Aimee Lou Wood Spotted Kissing Adam Long After Shutting Down Walton Goggins Feud Rumors

Aimee Lou Wood sparked romance rumors with her Happy Valley costar Adam Long after they were spotted packing on the PDA. Wood, 31, was photographed with Long, 34, in London on Saturday, June 7, as they enjoyed a coffee date. According to photos obtained by the Daily Mail, Wood and Long kissed outside a cafe during the casual outing. The pair have been linked since they filmed the upcoming BBC series Film Club, which was cocreated by Wood. They will play a couple in a show about Wood's character, Evie, who sets up a film club with her best friend Noa (Nabhaan Rizwaan). "It's Friday night. 7pm. Film Club Week 198. Evie hasn't left the house in six months after a wobble, and tonight, things are different. Noa's got big news. A dream job is taking him across the other side of the country, which means that all of this is ending," reads the official synopsis. "That reality is hitting. That they're going to be forced to consider for the first time they might be more than just friends." Walton Goggins and Aimee Lou Wood's Sweetest Friendship Moments: From 'The White Lotus' and Beyond The synopsis continued: "Neither of them are the best when it comes to emotions but this time those emotions might be impossible to ignore ... As if life weren't challenging enough already, Evie is going to be navigating this amongst the eccentricity of her family home — living with her fiercely loving single mum Suz, sister Izzie, and handsome boyfriend/sometime man of the house Josh." The description for the show describes Happy Valley as "a witty and emotional show about love and family, about whether we should follow our hearts or heads, and being in love with a friend." Wood's outing with Long comes after she recently made headlines with another costar. Earlier this month, Wood and her White Lotus love interest, Walton Goggins, broke their silence about their relationship. 'There is no feud. I adore, I love this woman madly, and she is so important to me,' Goggins, 53, declared during a joint interview with Variety on Wednesday, June 4, where he got "choked up" about Wood. 'This is Goldie Hawn. This is Meg Ryan. She can do anything, and she will. You watch what the next 20 years of her experience will be. I'll be on an island, I think Greece. But she's special. There is no feud. She is love and I know that I am that to her. We care about each other very deeply.' Walton Goggins, Aimee Lou Wood Just Followed Each Other on Instagram Again — Why That's a Big Deal Goggins made it clear that he and Wood "will be friends for f***ing ever.' Elsewhere in the interview, the duo revealed romantic scenes they filmed that ultimately got cut. 'We designed the whole journey, even down to the fact that Chelsea gets on Rick in the first [love] scene. Then in the last episode, it was Rick picking Chelsea up. It was so, so delicate,' Wood detailed. 'The last [sex scene] was two people who were free. It was this very long, suspended moment of these two people looking at each other. It was so powerful.' Goggins jokingly yelled a message for creator Mike White, saying, 'F*** you, Mike! We want a director's cut!'
