Joan Kennedy, 79, ex-wife of now-dead senator Ted Kennedy.
Another woman, so terrified of aging, that she is rendered unrecognizable and vaguely nonhuman from multiple and painful plastic surgeries.
Growing old is not easy, and must be especially difficult for women who were beautiful in their youth.
But there are women who wisely choose to age without plastic surgeries.
Actress Diana Rigg is a wonderful example — one of the world’s most beautiful women in her youth when she starred as Emma Peel in the pathbreaking British TV series The Avengers. Today, at age 77, she is still beautiful, albeit with lines and wrinkles. Most importantly, she still looks like Diana Rigg.
