Jane Seymour, 72, says she’s having ‘more passionate’ sex than ever with boyfriend John Zambetti, 73: ‘Your sex life doesn’t need to end at 60’

Jane Seymour revealed her sex life with boyfriend John Zambetti is better than ever.

The dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman star said she’s having the most ‘passionate’ sex of her life at age 72, in an essay for Cosmopolitan’s ‘Sex After 60’ digital edition, published Wednesday.

“Sex right now is more beautiful and passionate than anything I ever remember because it is built on trust, love and experience,” wrote the star, who has been married four times.

“I know myself and my body now, and John has had his own experiences in his life – it’s not like when you’re younger,” she added, referring to the Malibooz musician, 73.

‘Your sex life doesn’t have to end at the age of sixty. Ultimately, everyone is looking for something that gets the blood flowing in a certain area.”

“If you can figure that out, you’ll be a happy camper,” she continued.

The mother of four – who shot to fame after playing a Bond girl in the 1973 film Live and Let Die – dared to explain that sex becomes more centered around intimacy with age.

‘I suppose among the younger generations, people have sex first and then say, “Oh, by the way, hi. How are you?”

“The older I get, the more sex is based on emotional intimacy, on the fact that we have shared the ups and downs of life with someone: our feelings, our joys, our sorrows, our mutual passions and desires.”

She went on to joke that a “bonus” to having sex later in life is that you can’t get pregnant.

‘The funny thing is that at the moment I feel like I am both experienced and 16 years old. I really feel like sex and intimacy at my age are better than ever before.”

‘I actually mean that. And only after my marriage did I learn that I don’t have to disappear for sex and romance to click.’

Seymour explained that in previous relationships she would forget to think about herself.

“After more than fifty years together—four marriages, a few long-term partnerships, and lots of dates—my last breakup led to an epiphany: Whenever I was with someone, I disappeared into the relationship.”

“Dating someone was about ‘having it all’ – the career, the blended family, the marriage – not about romance and never about me.”

‘After my last relationship ended, I planned to be single and alone. I went to Greece and rented a small yacht on the South Ionian Sea. I went to Iceland and climbed glaciers,” she recalls.

It was then that she met John.

‘When John and I first met, he met me as someone who was happily alone and not looking eager. I was at my happiest surrounded by friends and family… John was immediately exposed to who I really am. And so despite my active disinterest in romance at the time, he still appreciated me and the privilege it was to see my life. I made him part of the gang.”

Seymour and John went public in October 2023, with the former Bond girl sharing photos of them cuddling together on Instagram.

In November, the couple opened up about their special union to DailyMail.com.

“She’s a great kisser, by the way,” Zambetti shared, adding that he always assumes she’ll lean in for a kiss when she turns his way. “I mean, can you blame me?”

Seymour said, “This is something unique and special and it is a gift at this time in my life.”

“And I think he feels the same way. He is sweet and clearly very intelligent, but also very supportive. Everyone I know loves him. They all love him.’

Seymour has been married a total of four times.

She was married to theater director Michael Attenborough from 1971 to 1973.

She later married author Geoffrey Planer from 1977 to 1978, followed by her marriage to businessman David Flynn from 1981 to 1992.

She shares daughter Katherine, 41, and son Sean, 38, with Flynn.

Finally, she was married to actor James Keach from 1993 to 2015. The couple share twins Kristopher and John, 27.
