It warms my heart how much she talked about her husband after so many years of marriage. They clearly adored each other. RIP Helmut ❤️

[@janataylor6869]

Ohhh,nooo. He did pass? 🙁

[@JordanPAT]

Gorgeous woman! Why aren't older women on the cover of magazines and in commercials Harper's Bazaar? Gena Rowlands and Susan Lucci are women I want to look like when I grow older. We should celebrate beauty at all ages!

[@debbiem6406]

Are you listening, Harpers? Older women on your covers.

[@theEricWalker]

...because they don't sell magazines

[@dothedeed]

Advertising is about getting NEW customers. The older people get, the more set in their ways they are and less likely to try new brands / new products. So the younger the age group, the more valuable they are to advertisers.

Miss D. Thanks for bringing it up. I agree!!!!

[@vmagallon4524]

You can tell she loves him so much! How she holds his hand and he reciprocates, how lovely.

[@MissIsabella97]

This woman is 71!? I thought she was in her 50's! My jaw dropped, she looks incredible! This is what a good diet and exercise does

[@weronikavanbree837]

Celine Adrienne honey..it's more than just diet and exercise 🤣🤣

[@MissIsabella97]

I have had family members die before the age of 70 due to poor diet/no exercise and they were skinny too. Everyone in my family is naturally slim but if you don't work out or eat right it doesn't matter. Health problems will arise if you don't watch what you put in your body or take care of it properly. The comment was coming from my own personal life experience and what I've witnessed. Diet is very important. I also don't care if people get plastic surgery and I think whatever she's done looks great on her. To each their own

[@caligulalonghbottom2629]

Then you lack critical thinking and observation skills. Her neck is grotesque as are her feet. You can tell her face is pulled tight but the rest is a bit saggy.

[@MissIsabella97]

bet you're gonna look perfect at 71:)

[@caligulalonghbottom2629]

I didn't say nor imply that but I think most people are easily hyped and mesmerized my celebrity to where they bullshit and lie. She does look good for 71, I guess. My grandmother has fewer wrinkles and is a little heavier, shorter and less 'glamorous'. She has gray hair. I think there is something to aging gracefully. Honestly, IDGAF about this woman nor do I really wish to diminish her but if anyone saw this same woman at Wal-Mart in a velour track suit they wouldn't be thinking the same about her. Its artifice. She starves herself, dyes her hair to a ridiculous color for her age, has an outdated hairstyle at that, plasters on makeup, has her face pulled, injects poison into her face, etc. Im sure anyone with her privilege and money could look this 'great' at 71. But to say she's flawless is a stretch and to say she would pass for 50 is utterly ridiciulous and bullshit. If anyone 50 ever looked like that, they're dying.

[@therenaissancewoman2080]

Love that they're doing this video together. They've had such a nice long marriage. So sad he's passed. I can't imagine how heartbroken she is after 52 years of marriage. My condolences to her and her family. May God lift them up and give them peace that passes all understanding.

She was a passenger on my flight years ago. So long ago, it was on a 747! I cannot tell you how many celebrities, politicians, and famous people I have met. She was one of the kindest, sweetest people I have ever met. She was so genuine. They certainly are cute together, aren’t they? I’m happy for her.

[@HealthyGroceryGirl]

[@alos4025]

I love them together! Such a sweetness about them, like they are still in the honeymoon phase. I loved when he said “I love you, baby”. A lot of men wouldn’t be as open and sweet on camera.

she's amazing!!! cannot believe she is 74, looks better than most 40 year old stars!!!!

[@whitb850]

Honestly all three of these meals look delicious. Very healthy & light, but still filling enough and very high-quality and yummy. I don't see a meal plan like that as being too unattainable either. It's nothing crazy. Coffee & yogurt for breakfast, a no-bread open-faced turkey sandwich for lunch, and salmon with veggies & salad for dinner. Yeah, greek yogurt, avocados, and salmon all the time will add up for your wallet - but there are some easy substitutions in there and overall this would be one of the easier and most reasonable celeb diets to follow IMO. I'll definitely be trying to recreate that salad - the apples and everything looks so good and I've never thought to include chives.

[@Mmmkay10]

You can tell this stunning woman nourishes herself from the inside out. Her commitment to wellness, happiness and love is why she looks as amazing as she does. Relationship goals for sure❤
