JANE SEYMOUR STARTING OVER AT 71

SHE'S RETURNING TO TELEVISION WITH A NEW SERIES AND LIVING HER LIFE BY HER OWN RULES

- Katie Bruno

On her new TV series, Harry Wild, Jane Seymour often dons a disguise to go undercover. "Sometimes she'll pretend to be an old Scottish or Irish lady so she can get information," Jane tells Closer. “No one is going to suspect her because she doesn't look dangerous, but she is!"

Like the crime-fighting former literature teacher she plays, Jane should not be underestimated, either. At 71, she's thriving as a character actress and finding purpose in philanthropy through her Open Hearts Foundation. Her personal life, with partner David Green, four children and three grandkids, also couldn't be happier. “My life is all about family, very close friends who I consider family, and trying to make a difference," Jane says.
