That we are all destined to grow old and grey is an immutable fact of life (for now, at least, who knows what the future holds with regards to technology and science).
It doesn’t matter how much money we have, how strictly we control our diet or exercise, how much sleep we get, or what we do for a living… sure, we might age differently, but in the end we’re all headed in the same direction. It’s basic biology, and not something we can do too much about.
Which is why it’s somewhat amusing that we can still be shocked when we see the hand of Father Time working its magic. Perhaps you haven’t seen someone for years, only to be taken back by how much they’ve aged? Or you spot an old movie star you remember from your childhood, only now their hair is white, their youthful exuberance gone.
It’s an interesting thing actually, the way celebrities age. Their appearances change as they get older – just as with any human being – only their path to old age is documented for the whole world to see. Be it from film to film, red carpet to red carpet, they leave a trail one can literally follow with their finger.
Now, time for today’s not-so-subtle segway: who remembers Meg Foster?
Of course you do! With her captivating, icy blue eyes, piercing gaze and raw beauty, how could you not? The American actress made her acting debut alongside Michael Douglas in Adam at 6am (1970), going on to star in numerous projects including The Six Million Dollar Man, Bonanza, The Twilight Zone and Murder, She Wrote.
Once a burgeoning talent and in-demand actress, Foster’s star has steadily shrunk from the limelight in the last two decades. These days she looks virtually unrecognizable from the woman who Mademoiselle magazine said had “the eyes of 1979”.
I mean, that’s hardly a surprise given that she’s now 76 years old, but it appears that people on the internet simply can’t grasp just how much she’s changed. We’ll be honest, some of the comments to be found are borderline cruel, while others simply reinforce the idea that the actress looks nothing like she did.
That said, we think that her decision to age naturally – without resorting to the plastic surgery that has become so commonplace in the film and TV industry – should be commended, not lambasted.
In any case, Foster continues to work within film and TV, as well as reportedly breeding horses from a large range which she owns by herself.
Do you remember Meg Foster? What do you think to how she looks now? Let us know in the comments.
Kаtе Middlеtоn’s Rесоvеry Uрdаtе
On a recent visit to the Isles of Scilly, Prince William provided a rare update on his wife, Kate Middleton.
The Princess of Wales is currently undergoing preventative chemotherapy after a cancer diagnosis that followed an abdominal surgery earlier this year.
In March, Kate announced she was receiving treatment and would step back from public duties until deemed fit by her doctors.
While visiting a community hospital on the islands, Prince William responded to inquiries about her progress, stating, “She’s doing well, thank you, yes.” The trip also included engagements such as visiting a new project aimed at tackling homelessness and spending time with local groups on the beach.
Arriving by boat, the Prince engaged with the community, discussing upcoming summer preparations with harbour operators and local businesses. His visit, filled with personal and official interactions, highlighted ongoing royal commitments amidst personal challenges.
His father, King Charles, has also resumed public duties after his own health issues, underscoring a period of resilience for the royal family.
