As she moved into middle age, she rejected the idea that getting older meant slowing down, maintaining an active lifestyle and a youthful presence. Known for her energy and charm, she credited consistent habits rather than extreme routines for helping her stay healthy over time.

While not calling herself a “health nut,” she emphasized lifelong awareness of nutrition, hydration, and staying active as key to aging well.
