Jane Seymour is an accomplished actress known for her versatile career. She was born Joyce Penelope Wilhelmina Frankenberg on February 15, 1951. Her successful Hollywood career took off when she played the Bond girl, Solitaire, in the James Bond film "Live and Let Die" in 1973.

The actress's talent, timeless beauty, and elegance have seen her soar, winning Golden Globes and Primetime Emmy Awards. Aside from her career, Jane has been married four times and has had an eventful love life.

The actress got married to her first husband, Michael Attenborough, in 1971. The two had no kids together. Jane went into marriage again in 1977 with Geoffrey Planer. However, the union was short-lived, as the pair divorced in 1978 and had no children.

Jane's oldest kids are from her third marriage. The actress married David Flynn in 1981 and welcomed their son Sean and daughter Katherine Flynn. David and Jane divorced in 1992. A year later, in 1993, the actress married her fourth husband, James Keach.

James and Jane share twins, Kristopher and John Keach. The pair separated in 2013, and their divorce was finalized in 2015. Aside from her kids, Jane is close with David's child from his previous relationship, Jenni Flynn, and James's kid from a past union, Kaelen Keach.

Jane learned a lot from her four marriages, especially the divorces. She said the most significant lesson she got from her past relationships was perspective. She learned to let go, find a way to communicate, and keep what was good in the relationship.

Still, the actress described her divorces as painful, depressing, and anger-stirring. She always looked back at what she would have done differently and saw that because of her work, she was mostly gone. "And sometimes you may be in a relationship where they would rather that you were there 24/7 and never worked," she explained.

Jane Seymour figured that the only thing she did wrong in her marriage was work, but she lamented that she had to work because she was providing for the whole family. She hilariously pointed out that she never ended her marriages; the men she was with ended the unions because they found someone else.

The actress managed to move away from the pain of her marriage ending by acknowledging that everyone in life faces challenges, a lesson she got from her mom. Besides her marriages and divorces, Jane delved into how she navigated life and her career with her kids.

Jane emphasized that it was hard to be a mother who worked as sometimes, she'd be gone for a long time. However, she insisted that she always did her best. "I took my kids all over the world whenever I was working, I had them on-set with me. And I somehow managed to juggle it," she noted.

The 72-year-old also shared about the challenges she went through with her kids. Jane recalled that before she was cast on "Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman," she was "homeless" and "penniless," having come out of a marriage. She called this period her "lowest depths of despair."

Jane's ex-husband at that time had lost all her money, leaving her nine million dollars in debt, with lawsuits from every major bank. The broke actress called her agent and told him he would do anything. The agent contacted the networks, and they said they have a little movie of the week for her.

However, the catch was that Jane would have to sign for five years if the movie was turned into a series. The actress also had to start the next day, less than 12 hours from when she was informed. That's how Jane landed in "Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman" and starred in it for five years, starting in 1993.

This casting saved Jane's life. She got a roof over her head and money to rebuild her life again. Her kids would go with her on the "Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman" set and do their homework in a trailer. "They wrote the most beautiful material ever," Jane gushed.

Jane's kids are now all grown up, and she praises them on social media, showing her love for them to the whole world. In 2023, when her twins, John Stacy and Kristopher Steven, turned 28, the actress shared a gorgeous photo of them.

A few days ago, Jane's daughter, Katherine, turned 42. Katherine, whose birthday is January 7, is an actress like her mom. Jane shared a throwback photo of her and her daughter, saying how her brilliance illuminated her world the moment she was born.

Jane is proud of the incredible woman Katherine has become. She wished her daughter a lifetime of moments and achievements as remarkable as herself. The actress's son, Sean, is also in the entertainment industry. The director, producer, and fine art photographer often shares his work on Instagram, gushing about how proud he is of how far he has come.

Jane is grateful for her kids, who are essential to her dating life today. The actress is dating her boyfriend, John Zambetti, with whom her kids set her up. John Zambetti revealed that the two don't have to worry about their kids approving their relationship because they got them together. "I'm very lucky to be with her," he added.

The couple believe their union was written in the stars. Jane confessed that John Zambetti got her because he wrote three love songs for her. She joked that the songwriter had an album on the way, all written for her.

On October 1, 2023, Jane went Instagram-official with her relationship with her man. The lovebirds posed leaning next to each other and looking gorgeous in a post that the actress captioned, "I've never been happier. 🥰."

Jane and John Zambetti adore each other and love to spend time together. The duo has a shared love for music, and they love going to see their musician friends play. He loves introducing the actress to places with good music, a side of Los Angeles that Jane didn't know about as much as she has lived in the area for a long time.

Jane is now feeling absolutely fantastic and admitted to having the happiest time of her life in many ways. She and John Zambetti treasure their love and have a romantic tradition of celebrating their anniversary each month. The actress joked that, at her age, she won't wait 50 years before commemorating milestones.
