90-year-old Joan Collins stuns in sizzling swimsuit photo

Using any yardstick you use, Joan Collins is unquestionably a legend.

It’s safe to say that, as she approaches her 90s, her most glamorous and flamboyant days are behind her, but that doesn’t mean she’s stopped having fun and flaunting her physique to the world.

Joan Collins has many lessons to teach about grace, elegance, and proper behavior for even the most ‘new’ superstars. What an incredible life this woman has led and continues to lead!

The Paddington, London-born actress of English descent is primarily remembered for her role as Dynasty’s Alexis Carrington Colby.

Dynasty turned Joan into a global celebrity, and in 1984 it was the most watched television program in the US. She was making $15,000 every episode back then. Every week, about 21 million homes tuned in to see her, eager to see what her egotistical and vicious persona would come up with.

“She was the initial strong woman on television.” And for that, I took a lot of heat. She’s such a vixen, so spiteful, and such a ballbreaker! Joan said to CBS in 2019 that “you know, I was just standing up for myself as an independent woman!”

Amazingly, over 70 years after making her on-screen debut, Collins is still employed in the entertainment sector.

Wikipedia states that she starred in two film-related projects in 2022, Tomorrow Morning and The Gentle Sex, and that she is currently filming In Bed with the Duchess.

She uses social media quite frequently as well.

For most of the US, last month was unseasonably chilly; storms delivered exceptionally low temperatures to many locations. However, Joan Collins was all about the heat.

According to sources, the legendary actress thought that the holidays would be the perfect time to post a picture of herself and her 57-year-old husband, Percy Gibson, practically sizzling.

Many people anticipate that at Christmas, family would gather around the fireplace and exchange gifts while the chilly breeze from outside the window blows in.

However, Joan Collins discovered that she was deviating from the custom this Christmas.On December 26, she posted to her roughly 300k followers, saying, “Had a terrific #christmasday.”

“I had a great lunch at the Bricusses after swimming in 82F in Beverly Hills—thank you, Evie and Adam Bricusse!”

Reactions to Collins’ chic leopard print swimsuit were swift. Even though the actress is about to turn ninety, she looked simply lovely.

She was pictured next to her spouse Percy in another picture; the two of them have been together since 2002.

All told, Collins has been married five times. The first marriage lasted four years, to actor Maxwell Reed. The second marriage was to singer-songwriter Anthony Newley. After she wed billionaire Ronald S. Kass, Newley welcomed Swedish pop sensation Peter Holm into her family.

“I did that too many times and I regret several of my marriages. I made a mistake. I don’t regret my marriage to Tony [Newley], though, as I had two amazing kids, Tara and Alexander, and one gorgeous daughter, Kathy, from my marriage to Ron [Kass]. Joan stated last year, “I truly regret getting married to Peter Holm, a Swede.

Collins claims that she has formed the closest relationship with Percy. She disclosed details about their connection during the pandemic.

“I’ve realized how strong our relationship really is because of being in lockdown,” the woman remarked. “I used to like traveling, hosting parties at the villa, and interacting with people, but due to constraints, it’s now just Percy and I. The best aspect is that we are conspirators, partners in crime.

Whatever others may say, Joan Collins is a legend, an icon, and incredibly beautiful for her age!

I Kicked Out My Grandparents, Who Raised Me, From My Graduation — Karma Quickly Taught Me a Lesson

My name is Sarah, and my story began with a tragedy. When I was two, my mom died in a car accident, and my dad left us. My grandparents took me in. They became my whole world. They loved and supported me through everything. Thanks to them, I just graduated from high school and got into a great college.

Graduation day was supposed to be perfect. I couldn’t wait for my grandparents to see me get my diploma. I was so excited.

“This is for you, Grandma and Grandpa,” I thought as I put on my cap and gown. I couldn’t wait to see my grandparents’ proud faces when I walked across the stage. They had given me everything.

Suddenly, I heard someone call my name. “Sarah?”

I turned around and saw a man I didn’t recognize. He had a kind face but looked a bit worn out. “Yes, that’s me,” I said cautiously.

He smiled, his eyes sad. “It’s me, your father.”

I felt my breath catch. “My father? No, my father left me when I was two.”

His face fell. “No, that’s not true. I’ve been looking for you all these years. Your grandparents hid you from me.” The man opened his wallet and showed me my childhood photo with a young man I knew as my father. This was the only photo of him I’ve ever seen.

My mind spun. “What? They said you abandoned me.”

He pulled out his phone and showed me text messages. Angry, hurtful words from my grandmother. “They told me to stay away, Sarah. They never wanted me around.”

Tears filled my eyes. Could this be true? My grandparents had lied to me?

“Why would they do that?” I whispered, feeling a mix of anger and confusion.

“I don’t know, Sarah. But I’m here now. I’ve always wanted to be part of your life,” he said softly.

I saw my grandparents sitting in the audience, smiling and waving at me. My emotions were in turmoil. I couldn’t believe they had lied to me for so long. I marched over to them, anger boiling inside me.

“Leave,” I said loudly, my voice trembling with rage.

Grandma’s smile faded. “Sarah, what’s wrong?” she asked, her eyes filling with tears.

“Leave now!” I shouted, my voice echoing in the hall. People turned to look.

Grandpa stood up slowly, his face pale. “Sarah, please, talk to us. What’s happening?”

“You lied to me! You kept my father away from me all these years. Just go!” I insisted.

My father approached me, placing a hand on my shoulder. “Thank you, Sarah. I know this is hard.”

“Why did they lie?” I asked, tears streaming down my face.

“I don’t know, but we can talk about it,” he said gently. “Let’s get through today first.”

Later, I sat across from my father in a quiet corner of the cafe, my coffee growing cold in front of me. I studied him, trying to reconcile the man before me with the stories my grandparents had told.

“So,” I began, my voice trembling slightly, “tell me everything. Start from the beginning.”

He sighed and took a sip of his coffee. “It’s a long story, Sarah. But you deserve to know the truth.”

He paused, collecting his thoughts. “When your mother and I first got together, everything was great. We were young and in love. But your grandparents never liked me. They thought I wasn’t good enough for her.”

“What do you mean?” I asked, my eyes searching his face for honesty.

“They were always judging me,” he continued, shaking his head. “Your grandfather thought I was a loser because I didn’t have a fancy job. They wanted your mom to marry someone else. When you were born, it got worse.”

My heart ached. “Why didn’t you come back? Why didn’t you try to find me sooner?”

Silently, he pulled out his phone and showed me old text messages from Grandma. They were filled with anger and demands to stay away.

My hands shook as I read them. “I can’t believe they would do this.”

“They thought they were protecting you,” he said softly, squeezing my hand. “They didn’t trust me, and I can’t blame them for being angry, but they lied to you. I’ve been trying to get back into your life ever since.”

Tears welled up in my eyes. “Why did you come to my graduation?”

“I heard about it through an old friend,” he explained. “I wanted to see you, to congratulate you. I thought maybe enough time had passed that you’d be ready to meet me.”

I nodded slowly, absorbing his words.

“We fell on hard times,” he said. “My son, your half-brother, is very sick. I need a lot of money for his treatment, and I thought I could borrow at least $1000 from you.”

I looked at him, torn between anger and pity. “Why didn’t you tell me all of this before?”

“I didn’t want to ruin your big day,” he said with a sad smile. “I wanted to wait until we could talk properly.”

I sighed, feeling a mixture of emotions. “This is a lot to take in.”

“I know,” he said gently. “Take your time. I’m not going anywhere.”

I looked out the window, watching the world go by. “I need to talk to my grandparents. There’s so much I need to sort out.”

“Of course,” he said, reaching across the table to take my hand. “I’ll be here when you’re ready.”

I squeezed his hand, then stood up. “I need to go. But thank you for being honest with me.”

“Thank you for listening,” he said, his eyes hopeful.

As I walked out of the cafe, I felt a heavy weight on my shoulders. I had a lot to think about and even more to discuss with my grandparents.

I walked into our house, feeling a heavy weight on my shoulders. The decorations from the graduation party were still up, and the colorful balloons seemed to mock my confusion. My grandparents were sitting at the kitchen table, talking quietly. Their faces lit up when they saw me, but the joy quickly faded when they noticed my expression.

“Sarah, what’s wrong?” Grandma asked, her voice full of concern.

I took a deep breath, trying to steady my trembling hands. “I’m so sorry,” I began, tears welling up in my eyes. “I shouldn’t have made you leave my graduation. I need to know the truth. Please, just tell me everything.”

Grandma’s face softened, and she reached out to take my hand. “Oh, Sarah, we understand. It must have been so confusing for you.”

Grandpa nodded, his eyes sad. “We did what we thought was best to protect you. But you deserve to know the whole story.”

I sat down, my heart heavy with guilt and curiosity. “Dad said you kept him away from me. He showed me messages, Grandma. They were from you.”

Grandma sighed deeply, her eyes filled with pain. “Yes, I sent those messages. Your father…he wasn’t a good man, Sarah. He started drinking and using drugs after you were born. He was drunk when he caused the accident that killed your mother. We didn’t want him to hurt you too.”

I swallowed hard, trying to process their words. “But he said he’s been sober for years. And he said he needed money for his son’s treatment. Is that true?”

Grandma and Grandpa exchanged a worried glance. “He always knew how to manipulate people,” Grandpa said softly. “If he’s back, it’s because he wants something.”

I took a deep breath. “I need to know for sure. Do you think we could find out more about his life now?”

Grandpa nodded. “We can try. Maybe we can find something online.”

We all moved to the living room, and Grandpa opened his laptop. He logged into Facebook, and we began searching for my father. It didn’t take long to find his profile. His profile picture showed him with a woman and a young boy.

“Is that his new family?” I asked, my heart pounding.

“It looks like it,” Grandpa said, clicking on the woman’s profile. Her name was Lisa, and her profile was public.

We scrolled through her posts, looking for any mention of the boy’s illness. My heart ached as I thought about the possibility of my father lying to me.

“Look at this,” Grandma said, pointing to a post from a few weeks ago. It was a picture of the boy playing soccer, smiling and healthy.

“Doesn’t look like he’s sick,” Grandpa muttered, scrolling further. There were more pictures of the boy, all showing him active and happy.

Grandma hugged me tightly. “We’re so sorry you had to go through this, Sarah. But we’re glad you know the truth now.”

I nodded, tears streaming down my face. “I’m so sorry for doubting you. I should have trusted you from the start.”

Grandpa put his arm around me. “We forgive you, Sarah. You were just looking for answers.”

We sat together, the three of us, finding comfort in each other. I knew I had made mistakes, but I also knew I was loved and forgiven. My grandparents had always been there for me, and now, more than ever, I realized how lucky I was to have them.

The next day, my father came to the house, looking hopeful. “Did you get the money?” he asked.

I shook my head. “No, Dad, I can’t give you any money.”

He frowned. “But it’s for your brother’s treatment.”

“I know you lied about that,” I said firmly. “I saw the photos. He’s not sick. You just wanted the money.”

His face turned red with anger. “You’re just like your grandparents,” he snapped. “I should’ve stayed away.”

“Maybe you should have,” I replied, my voice steady. “I’m done with your lies.”
