Goodfellas veteran Debi Mazar, 61, stuns in a swimsuit as her husband of 23 years calls her his 'obsession'
Debi Mazar still looked incredible in a swimsuit even though she just turned 61-years-old this week.
The actress - who is best known for playing mobster Ray Liotta 's mistress in the 1990 movie Goodfellas - was seen in several new images on her husband Gabriele Corcos' Instagram page.
Mazar wore a black-and-red one piece swimsuit while on the beach in Castiglioncello, which is in the Tuscany region of Italy. She posed like a pinup model from the 1950s.
Her spouse, who works as a chef, was shirt-free and in swim trunks when he put his arm around his better half.
In the caption, he said that he was very much in love with her. 'You are my universe and my inspiration, My strength and my reason, My truth and my obsession. Happy birthday my love, I adore you!'
The two met in Italy 24 years ago and wed a year later.
Mazar - who is best friends with Madonna - wrote on Instagram: 'I wanted to Thankyou everyone for all my wonderful birthday wishes on August 13th! Had a great time by the sea. Thankyou to my host @patriziobp & Paiyawee ❤️ Here's to being grateful for another year to live & love!'
In 2020, Mazar moved to Firenze, Italy with her husband and their two daughters Evelina, 23, and Giulia, 19.
'At my age, I'm about to be an empty nester. And I'm going into a period where I've spent the past 23 years being on top of my children, and now I have more freedom to go work and not feel guilty,' Mazar told People last year.
'I have more freedom to walk around in the house naked or have sex whenever I feel like it!' she noted.
They met 24 years ago when she went on vacation in Italy.
Her husband was supposed to get her at the airport as a favor to their mutual friend, French pianist Katia Lebeque.
'I never arrived [at the Florence airport] because my flight was late. Long story short, the next day we were sitting next to each other at dinner, and he asked if I wanted to get a pack of cigarettes and a cocktail in the piazza. And I said yes, and we ended up sitting on these steps of a 12th-century church talking for like two hours,' Mazar said.
She added: 'And when I went to kiss him goodnight, I didn't know to go right to left or left to right with a double kiss, and our lips smashed, and there was all this electricity. We spent the entire summer together, and then we couldn't be apart. And that was 23 years ago, and we're still together.'
They wed in 2002.
And she said at the time she loves to travel.
'I'm exploring the world, and I love that I'm at an age where I'm fit and I can just jump on planes and discover new places and meet new people and take on different characters, working with different accents and different languages,' she shared.
'Here, it's not like America where the work is abundant and you make more money. It's the opposite.
'However, the roles that they write for women of a certain age are rich and complex, and they like women of a certain age here. So I feel that I went to the place that wanted me.'
And she is thrilled with her new life in Italy.
'Would I like to be younger for my energy? Sure. Would I like to be younger for my body? Sure. Nothing is the way it was, obviously.
'But for me, 60 means I've lived a good long life so far. I was also a person who lost hundreds and hundreds of friends to the AIDS crisis, and I just feel very blessed to have lived this long.
'You have to celebrate every day that you're alive. And I'm having the best time of my life. This past decade has been brilliant. I've learned so much. I've also learned how to be a bit more quiet, how to hear nature, how to not care what people say, to not care what people think of me.'
She also said she does not use fillers.
'I'm like, "I actually don't. This is natural!" My mother has these cheekbones. I have cheekbones. My lips are kind of collapsing, but I have naturally small but cute lips, and I always had snatched my hair back just to pull my face up,' she said.
'So 60, for me, it just means I go to the doctor more often. I have to get my checkups. I'm very on top of that. Here's the thing, you can find out anybody's age. So people might go, 'Oh, Debi Mazar, she's not a new idea.' But then they say, 'Well, look at Debi Mazar. She kind of looks good. And she's still funny.
'I've never hid my age because I've always had this respect for older people. They've lived. And I've always loved talking to old people, so my agent was always like, 'Why are you announcing your age?' and I'm like, 'I don't give a f---!' I really don't,' she says earnestly.
