Jane Seymour Asserts Her Photos Are Authentic & She Doesn’t ‘Retouch’ Swimwear Snaps

Aug 14, 2023

Jane Seymour is a seasoned actress. However, her first stint in acting was an uncredited role in Richard Attenborough's British comedy musical war film "Oh! What a Lovely War," the actress has enjoyed a successful career. After her role, Seymour played several minor and major roles in movies and TV, but it wasn't until 1973 that she got her big break in the movie industry.

Seymour was cast as a Bond girl in the eighth installment of the James Bond spy film franchise. Her role as Solitaire in the 1973 film "Live and Let Die" brought her international fame, making her all the more popular and skyrocketing her career to newer heights in the movie industry.

Seymour rode on her newly found fame, earning lead roles in several TV and film projects after her big break. She rode the wave, building a career that has lasted to date. Besides being in the movies, Seymour wore other hats. She delved into writing in the 1980s, publishing inspirational self-help books. She also excelled in the fashion industry, teaming up with a celebrated designer to collaborate on design projects.

Although known for her talents across different niches, Seymour's skills weren't limited to her popularity. Her relationship life was nearly as popular as her acting career. Seymour's beauty and persona endeared her to so many men, but somehow, her relationships always turned sour. Despite her horrible experiences with her ex-husbands, the actress still maintains her glow at 72. Seymour is happy to share unedited photos of herself on social media, showing just how beautiful she truly is. Read on to find out the details of Seymour's timeless beauty.

Seymour's beauty is enchanting, and naturally, that feature, combined with several others, made her attractive to the good, the bad, and the ugly. While her life seemed perfect career-wise, her successful career couldn't translate into her marital life — she has been married four times, all of which ended in divorce.

Jane walked down the aisle for the first time in 1971, at 20. The actress's first marriage was to theater director Michael Attenborough, the son of movie director Richard Attenborough. The former couple was married for two years, from 1971 to 1973. After about four years away from the marital institution, she moved on from her first divorce, marrying Geoffrey Planer in 1977. The marriage between the former couple barely lasted for a year and was over in 1978.

Seymour gave love another chance after her second divorce. She fell in love with costar Christopher Reeve during the making of "Somewhere in Time." Although the love between the costars was genuine, they had to end things when Reeve discovered that his ex-girlfriend was expecting his child. 

The actress gave marriage another shot in 1981 when she walked down the aisle with David Flynn. The couple share two children together and were married for 11 years until their divorce in 1992. Seymour's divorce from Flynn was particularly painful because it left her homeless and bankrupt.

In 1993, she tied the knot for the fourth time with actor James Keach. Seymour's marriage to Keach was her longest; the couple was married for 20 years until they announced their divorce in 2013. The marriage crashed after she caught her husband cheating with a woman she knew. Seymour and Keach share a set of twins.

The "Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman" star is drinking from the fountain of youth. If anything, the picture Seymour posted on her Instagram page on June 11, 2023, proved that she is a timeless beauty. In the picture, she donned a brown swimsuit paired with a hat of the same color in a lighter shade and sunglasses to complete the look. She was all smiles as she sat on a log, enjoying the bliss of summer. 

"The warmth of summer's arrival is like a gentle breeze whispering hope into our souls, reminding us that amidst life's uncertainties, there's always room for joy. 🥰," Seymour wrote in her caption.

In the caption, she continued to encourage her followers to have a positive outlook on life. Seymour's enchanting beauty captivated her fans as they were filled with admiration for the picture. "Sun kissed and gorgeous!," one fan wrote. "... .What an appearance! You are really a feast for the eyes!" wrote another.

Seymour also opened up to Playboy magazine about aging and admitted she doesn’t harbor any yearnings to return to her youth:

“I feel much sexier now than I ever did when I was younger. There’s an enormous freedom in having lived as long as I have. … I’m comfortable in my own skin.” 

She added staying authentic is very much a priority for her: “I haven’t done any surgeries or injections or anything. I haven’t done any of it. So I still look like ‘me.’ Everyday I’m kind of tempted, but then I look at people I know and I don’t (recognize) them. I’m authentically being me. That’s important to me.”

Even at 72, Seymour’s commitment to remaining genuine carries into the photos she shares of herself, in particular, photos of her in swimwear. She told People she doesn’t “retouch any of those pictures, it's just me out there.” 

“You can tell in the one in the waterfall, I certainly didn't put hair and makeup and do anything for that. I was getting splashed by a serious, serious waterfall there,” she added in reference to a clip she posted in April 2023.

Seymour revealed that she isn’t a high-maintenance beauty and keeps her routine low-key, explaining:

“I felt that there are a lot of people I know who just give up. They have the babies and they say, ‘Okay, I'm done caring about how I look and staying in shape.’ And then I think they think that people like me go to exotic spas and do all kinds of special treatments and I don't do any of that. I think I wanted to show people what would happen if you just did a very simple regimen like I do, where you're not on any specialty diet, you eat as sensible as you can, everything in moderation.”

Besides a healthy diet rich in fish, nuts and vegetables, Seymour said she’s also practices intermittent fasting. As for her skin, the actress said:

“I exfoliate really, really well. Then I use Crepe Erase — and I tend to use a lot of it. I love it and I put it in the regular places, on my chest, my arms, my legs and even my face. It's all about plumping this skin up and enabling it to reset itself, too.”

She added she often does her own hair and makeup for the red carpet and “had fun with it.”
