This 79-Year-Old Beauty Icon Says She’s Okay with Being ‘Fat’ — See What She Looks Like Now
Candice Bergen’s remarkable journey spans modeling, acting, and embracing aging with unapologetic honesty. Once a 1960s Vogue cover girl typecast as an “ice princess,” she reinvented herself as Emmy-winning “Murphy Brown” and later embraced roles showcasing wit over looks. Now 77, she openly discusses weight gain, memory lapses from mini-strokes, and rejecting Hollywood’s pressure to diet or over-correct wrinkles.
After outliving two husbands—filmmaker Louis Malle and businessman Marshall Rose—Bergen finds joy as a grandmother, hand-painting quirky designer bags, and living by her own rules. “I just thought if I’m going to get older, I’d like to do it with credibility,” she says. Fans celebrate her authenticity, proving her legacy extends far beyond her iconic roles.
