JENNY AGUTTER | 68

British actress, Jenny Agutter, who gained wider recognition after the release of the 1971 film Walkabout, where she played a character that was simply referred to as “girl,” opened up about beauty and aging for an interview with Hello Magazine in 2019, and said that turning 60 was her “defining moment.” Indeed, she says she’s found “freedom” now that she’s 60, and that she feels “liberated.” Why did she say these things, you’re probably wondering. Well, Agutter claims she’s lived life for so long trying to be a “certain way.”

And, to her credit, she’s been able to let go of those negative motivations and be free. She previously opened up about her family’s battle with cystic fibrosis, where none of them knew about until her niece acquired symptoms of the condition. The disease is hereditary, and it eventually causes damage to the nervous system, the lungs, and the heart.
