This Is How Former Bond Girl Jane Seymour Stays Fit and Fabulous Without A Strict Diet At 74

Hollywood actor Jane Seymour, known for her role as psychic Solitaire in the James Bond film Live and Let Die, has truly aged like a fine wine. The 74-year-old says she maintains her amazing looks by balancing fitness and a healthy lifestyle.

According to the British actress, she stays youthful following several strict health tips, but they do not involve a strict diet. “People ask me if I have a cheat day with my diet, and I respond that I am never on a diet; I just make good choices and stick with them,” Seymour told the Daily Mail. “If you think you are on a diet, you will lose trac you will cheat,” she argued. “But if you find healthy foods you love that make you feel good, you never feel shorted.”

Seymour says healthy diet tips include allowing herself one big meal during lunch at around 1.30 pm. “I start my day with coffee and hard-boiled eggs for protein, and it isn’t till later, around lunchtime, that I have a full meal because then I can really enjoy it,” she said.

As for her dining preferences, Seymour pointed out that she loves the Mediterranean way of eating. “It works so well, and it tastes good. It includes a lot of delicious food like tomatoes, olives, and fish.”

The Mediterranean diet is considered healthy because it emphasises whole, nutrient-dense foods and limits processed and refined foods, which are often high in unhealthy fats, added sugars, and salt. According to experts, this way of eating—loaded with fruits, vegetables, whole grains, legumes, and healthy fats—is associated with a range of health benefits, including a lower risk of heart disease, diabetes, and certain cancers.

The former model said she grows a lot of her own vegetables, and she loves to snack on cucumbers and celery with hummus throughout the day to keep full. “I do love nuts,” she added. “I am a savoury person; I like the salt.”

For her fitness, Jane says she believes in being consistent. Her daily routine includes lifting light weights and incorporating Pilates. “You have to keep moving!” Seymour said.

Jane says while she exercises regularly, she also stays away from fad weight loss diets and drugs like Ozempic, believing in the power of balancing diet and working out. “I feel much sexier now than I ever did when I was younger,” Seymour told Playboy at the time. "Then I was like, ‘Oh gosh, I’m supposed to be sexy. What is that?!’”
