ACTRESS Felicity Kendal says that she and her ex-husband have pondered remarrying but they cannot be bothered.
The Good Life star, 67, and director Michael Rudman, 75 - Kendal's second husband - were together for seven years after tying-the-knot in 1983. Years after their marriage broke down, the pair, who have a son together, reunited in 1998.
The star told Good Housekeeping magazine: "Michael and I talk about marriage and then we decide we can't be a****.
"I think marrying the same person twice looks like carelessness - that's the way we look at it!" Asked what she had learnt about love, the actress replied: "It comes and goes" and she said of what draws and keeps individuals together: "Sex! (and) more sex!"
Kendal, who famously played Barbara in 1970s sitcom The Good Life, has previously told how she gave up Botox because it looks "silly" on women of a pensionable age.
"There is pressure in the movie business (to look a certain way), but I'm not in that."
Kendal said that thanks to yoga, Pilates and weights, she is "fitter and stronger now than 20 years ago, and I've never felt so good."
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
