Jane Seymour: "70 is the new 50" (4 photos)

Today, 01:39

Jane Seymour believes that age is just a number when it comes to her love life. In an interview with Hello! magazine, the actress shared that at 70, after four marriages, she found love again. Two years ago, she met emergency room doctor and musician John Zambetti.





"Honestly, I never thought I'd find a true, committed, and wonderful relationship at this age. But I'm incredibly happy to have it," the actress shared. "70 is the new 50."

The star of the series "Dr. Quinn: Medicine Woman" considers herself lucky to have met Zambetti as an adult.

"You've had a life. Many lives. Children, grandchildren, a career, ups and downs. You know what you want. I think we're both very lucky to have found each other now, because it wouldn't have worked out before."



"His life was dedicated to medicine and touring, and mine was dedicated to traveling and filming. We met at the right time."

Seymour and Zambetti met through their children.

Jane has four children, and John has two from a previous marriage that lasted 43 years.

"Our children have brought us very close," Seymour said.

Zambetti and Seymour's love story began at a Schweiz concert, whom the British actress calls their "mutual best friend."

"Schweiz knew I would go to his concert because I've always supported him—I'm like a second mother to him. And, as it turns out, John has always been like a second father to him," she said, explaining that she's known the musician since he was seven years old.





When they first met, Zambetti had no idea about Seymour's illustrious acting career.

"He'd never seen my work. The first thing he said was, 'I want to see what you do.' It's funny, because I haven't seen half of it myself—I didn't watch most of Dr. Quinn because I was too busy filming."



74-year-old Seymour spoke candidly to the publication about her relationships. She emphasized that sex still plays an important role in her life.

"My parents' generation, and many people, when they reach a certain age, say, 'This is no longer part of our lives; it's not necessary.' I just think with maturity, you begin to understand your body, which is enjoyable, and you gain knowledge, so you need to use it," the actress admitted.
