Candice Bergen will soon celebrate her milestone birthday!
Before she turns 80, the Emmy-winning star admits she’s having trouble wrapping her head around it.
In an interview with AARPs Movies for adultsCandice revealed that the idea of turning 80 seems impossible to believe.
She said, “Oh God. Oy. I deny it.”
I added, “I’m just in total denial. I don’t even want to talk about it. Being 80 is just unfathomable to me.”
“It doesn’t feel anything. You feel the same,” Candice also noted. “You feel like you always felt. Only maybe you walk a little slower and more carefully, because you don’t want to fall. So stepping off a curb is a big event for me.”
Besides ‘a few health issues’, Candice revealed she stays young by working out five days a week. She revealed that she goes to the same trainer who worked with her late husband Marshall Rose.
Candice Bergen said, “I’ve known him for years, and he worked with my husband when he was sick, and he’s just really smart and knows his stuff.”
“It’s very little cardio; I hardly sweat. I said today, ‘You’re just trying to keep me alive, right?’ It’s just remembering how to move things, maintain your joints… to get the blood pumping a little bit,” she added.
Looking ahead, Candice wants to spend more time with her daughter and grandchildren.
“They are the lights of my life. I love watching movies with them on the couch. They call me Toto. They just made it up, and now everyone in my family calls me Toto,” Candice said.
