They Were the Stars of Yesterday, But You Won’t Believe What They’re Doing in Retirement

They were the glitterati of the yesteryears, wowing audiences of all ages with their beauty and talent alike. Decades later, we wonder what have become of these once-shining stars. While there are some that are still very much visible in movies to this day, there are others who are now comfortable in retirement. Some can even claim to have just as much drama in their personal lives as the roles that they once played, be it in the guise of divorce or alcoholism. Regardless of where they are now, these stars of yore can all say for certain that they enjoyed their high net worth and success to the fullest.

Diane Ladd – 85 Years

More than sixty years of electric Hollywood career deserves its very own star on the “Walk of Fame.” Diane Ladd proved that her dramatic blonde hair and gorgeous face are only next to her versatile acting. Ladd’s first acting role was in the Broadway production of “Orpheus Descending” in 1959, followed by a string of films in the 60s, “Something Wild” and “40 Pounds of Trouble” and tv show appearances in “Mr. Fugitive.”

After appearing in various projects, she finally gained recognition in the 1974 film “Alice Doesn’t Live Here Anymore,” earning her first “Bafta Award for Best Actress.” Ladd’s latest work is the ongoing Hallmark drama series “Chesapeake Shores.”
