My dad was a carpenter and had a shop in West Hollywood. He made a storage box for Mr. Bergen to store Charlie. He took my sister with him to take the box to Mr. Bergen and she met Candice, they were the same age and Candice gave my sister a chameleon. She was down to earth, kind and not the least bit spoiled-acting. Very sad that she never heard her parents say "I love you" to her. I think she is the most beautiful, natural-looking lady ever and I hope she lives a long, healthy life and enjoys her grandchild.

[@mercygrrl]

In her book 'A Fine Romance' Bergen admits to some procedures while Murphy Brown was in production. Thankfully they didn't try to overhaul her appearance or attempt to freeze her back into her 20's-30's. She looks amazing at 75. She has good genes & has been a vegetarian for a long time, which I'm learning first-hand will help one navigate those older years.

[@susanford2388]

@@mercygrrl That reminds me of what Betty White said during the Golden Girls that she had a eyes done. So perhaps Ms Bergen has had some minor lifts here & there. But regarding a vegetarian lifestyle as long as one can consume a lot of protein, calcium & iron. So milk, cheese, legumes is a staple. Curried lentils are a cheap, delicious & nutritious go to. Actually, there is a quote from Ms. White regarding longevity about soya, wheatgerm & vegetarian stuff, she said throw it in the garbage & have a juicy pork chop, plus 8 hours of beauty sleep & 9 if you are ugly. So horses for courses. One should do what suits the individual. At 99 she has good genes, & perhaps whatever she eats she will still be 99. Richard Overton lived May 1906 - Dec 2018 smoked 12 cigars a day. Fact.

[@hawktchr8]

She has ABSOLUTELY had plastic surgery. A long time ago. She is 75. Admits to face lift and other forms. She doesn’t do fillers. And that’s why she looks “good” for her age.

My grandmother died a few years back and all my life I heard stranger after stranger tell her how much she “looked like Murphy Brown.” The first time i saw Candace was in those late 80s/early 90s Sprint commercials (the pin drops!) and their resemblance was uncanny. I mean, they could have been twins!! Now whenever I see Candace it makes me think of my grandma Linda and the heartbreaking pain of not being able to see and talk to her. 🥂 So here’s to Linda and Candace!! 🥂

She is beautiful and also nice , we bumped into her in midtown on a Sunday morning. Her daughter was perhaps (1) if that. And she was window shopping w/ her.

Classy and beyond beautiful!!!
