Jane Fonda recently shared some surprising revelations about her romantic life during a guest appearance on Heather McMahan's podcast.
Despite being a Hollywood luminary, Fonda is often associated with her advocacy for women's rights, marked by the feminist movements of the 1960s.
While Fonda has maintained her status as a symbol of beauty and fitness, her recent statements have shifted attention to her dating life at the age of 85.
During the Absolutely Not podcast, she candidly admitted, "I'm embarrassed to say this, but if I had to have a lover, I'd have to be 20 years old," eliciting both surprise and laughter from the host and production team.
Pressed to elaborate on this unconventional preference, Fonda attributed it to the impact of aging on the human body, expressing a distaste for "old skin." This lighthearted revelation added a unique twist to the interview, showcasing Fonda's candid and humorous approach to discussing personal matters.
This isn't the first time Fonda has openly discussed her romantic life. In a 2020 interview on the Ellen DeGeneres show, she declared that she was no longer engaging in intimate relationships, citing a lack of time and the richness of her life experiences. "I don't need it now because I'm too busy," she quipped, offering a glimpse into her priorities at 85.
Moreover, Fonda emphasized feeling rejuvenated and lighter in her older age, contrasting it with a sense of burden during her youth.
Reflecting on the essence of youth, she described it as a feeling of being "young, light, without feeling a great burden on my shoulders." Fonda shared insights into her philosophy of embracing the present, accepting life's uncertainties, and acknowledging that challenges are inevitable but surmountable.
