Bo Derek recently opened up about why she never had children, despite considering having one. She admitted that her life was so crazy, that even when she wanted a child, she knew a kid wouldn't fit in with her lifestyle. While she is now in semi-retirement, she has had a long career as an actress, model, and producer. Bo is also known for her volunteer work and activism. When asked why she never had kids, she said, "I thought about it at one time, but my life was so unconventional. I think kids deserve at least a chance to have two parents that are committed but my life was so crazy. There were times I wouldn’t have a dog because my life was so crazy, let alone a child." Bo Derek said that kids didn't fit in with her lifestyle John Corbett and Bo Derek / Kristin Callahan/ACE Pictures/Image Collect This is part of the reason why Bo has not married her partner of 18 years, fellow actor John Corbett.
