In a candid interview on comedian Heather McMahan's podcast, Absolutely Not, iconic actress Jane Fonda, at the age of 85, faced the intriguing topic of dating in her golden years.
With a twinkle in her eye, Fonda confessed, "I'm ashamed to say this, but if I were to take a lover, he'd have to be 20." When pressed on why she set the age bar at 20, she unflinchingly declared, "Because I don't like old skin."
Amidst the laughter of McMahan and the podcast producers, Fonda maintained her seriousness, asserting, "I don't!"
The viral interview has ignited a storm of reactions, with some celebrating Fonda's unfiltered candor, while others raise curious eyebrows at her unconventional dating standards.
This isn't the first time Fonda has opened up about her personal life. In 2018, she pledged to steer clear of the dating scene, and in 2021, she candidly shared her disinterest in pursuing romantic relationships. Fonda consistently challenges societal norms surrounding aging and relationships, embracing a life without the traditional confines of love.
Fonda, who believes she feels "younger now [at age 84] than I was in my 20s," attributes her rejuvenation to a 70-year quest for "becoming young."
In a bold move back in 2020, Fonda announced she had "closed up shop" and was bidding farewell to the dating scene after three marriages. The saga of Jane Fonda's love life continues to be a fascinating and unapologetic journey, challenging stereotypes and embracing a unique perspective on romance at every turn.
