Jane Seymour Feels ‘Post-Traumatic Numbness’ Post-California Wildfires
Jane Seymour is thankful for her safety after her home was exposed to last week’s California wildfires.
“I’m very grateful, incredibly relieved,” Seymour, 73, told Us Weekly exclusively at the American Ballet Theater Annual Benefit in Los Angeles on Monday, Dec. 16. “It’s interesting, you kind of have a sort of post-traumatic numbness. It’s like, ‘Did that really happen?’ And it did.”
Many celebrities – including Malibu residents Cher, Barbra Streisand and more — had to flee their homes as a wildfire tore through the Southern California coastline. One Hollywood star, legendary actor Dick Van Dyke, was forced to evacuate just days before his 99th birthday.
The James Bond star explained that after she saw how the fires had affected other members of her community, she realized how lucky she was that her home was still standing.
A man is only as strong as the woman at his side! Ever since Ursula Andress made her debut as the original “Bond girl” in 1962’s Dr. No, the leading ladies of the iconic 007 action flicks became just as important as the man himself. More than 70 women have portrayed Bond girls through the […]
“Driving around Malibu and looking at all the charred remains is not fun,” she said. “But really considering what could have happened, we were all very fortunate.”
The actress is beloved for her appearance in the hit western series Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman, which ran for six seasons in the ‘90s. Seymour’s portrayal of Dr. Michaela Quinn — a physician who leaves Boston in search of an adventure — earned her a Golden Globe in 1996 for Best Performance by an Actress in a Television Series, Drama.
After the show was canceled by CBS in 1998, many fans were disappointed and, decades later, still long for a revival.
When asked if there were currently any plans for a reboot, Seymour replied, “Not that I know of.”
“I’m in the middle of my own series right now, Harry Wild,” she explained. “So, we’ve been doing that, and I did do a Christmas movie a couple of years ago with Joe Lando.”
The actress did, however, tease the possibility of a reunion between the two. “So, people are actively trying to find more material for us to do together,” she told Us. “Whether it’s Quinn or something else. We love working together.”
Even though Seymour’s Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman costar and her are now on good terms, according to Seymour they didn’t get along while filming the show because it took place right after they dated in real life.
“We didn’t actually talk to each other, other than in dialogue or making out for about six or seven years,” Seymour previously told Us in a 2019 interview.
Seymour went on to explain that the pair “couldn’t” actually be “together” in “real-life.” Despite the tension, Lando later became her “closest friend on the planet.”
