72-Year-Old Jane Seymour Says The World Considers Women Over 50 ‘Useless’

Hollywood actress Jane Seymour recently addressed the topic of aging and post-menopause in an interview with Hello! magazine. She also revealed the secrets to her youthful appearance at 72, noting that she goes for “temporary enhancements” rather than plastic surgery.

She also hopes to break the stigma surrounding being an older woman as she embraces the process. “The world is against aging. We hate aging. We look at aging and we go, ‘Oh, no, there’s a wrinkle, oh my God. Get rid of it. Grey hair. No. Terrifying!'” she told the outlet.

The bright side of aging

Rather than see the wrinkles and whitening hair as something to get rid of, Jane sees it as a sign of opportunity. “You can look at it the other way and you can say, actually, I now have time in my life to do things I really want to do,” she said. “Maybe I can now become the person I want to be.”

She also encouraged women to be more optimistic about aging rather than try to fight it. “No one wants to talk about aging, especially women, because they’re doing everything they can to look 20 or 30 years younger,” she added. “So the last thing they want to do is to talk about that, and there’s always been this whole thing that when you turn 50, you’re not having babies anymore, so now you’re kind of useless.”

The mother of four prefers to keep her face natural, only doing touch-ups as needed; this is partly because she sometimes has to play dynamic roles requiring her to look older or younger than she is. “That’s why I don’t do the things a lot of people are doing because I’m a blank canvas. I’m an actress,” she noted. “I want to be able to play every emotion there is because it would be like having a string instrument and taking a few of the strings off or numbing them.”

While she is not one of the “obsessive exercise people,” being a former ballet dancer has contributed to her fitness, coupled with her Mediterranean diet and intermittent fasting. “I don’t eat much meat. I exercise, but I don’t exercise every day,” she said in an August interview. The Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman star, also noted that she prioritizes her eight hours of sleep each night.
