Jane Seymour admits she's having 'more passionate' sex than ever at age 72

Jane Seymour has said that her sex life at the age of 72 is better than ever.

The 72-year-old actress revealed that she and her musician boyfriend John Zambetti, 73, are incredibly "passionate" in the bedroom in a new essay for Cosmopolitan's Sex After 60 digital issue, published on Wednesday.

"Sex right now is more wonderful and passionate than anything I ever remember because it is built on trust, love, and experience," said the Dr Quinn Medicine Woman star, who has been married four times. 

"I now know myself and my body, and John has had his own experiences in his life—it's not like when you're younger.

"Your sex life doesn't need to end at 60," she insisted "At the end of the day, everyone is looking for something that puts blood into a certain area.

"When you can figure that out, well, you're going to be a happy camper,"

Seymour, who became a sex symbol after playing a Bond girl in 1973's Live and Let Die, who also shared her belief that sex is better with age as it's more centred around "intimacy and mutual desires", added: "The crazy thing is, right now, I feel like I'm both experienced and 16 years old...

"And it took being single after my marriages to learn that I don’t have to disappear for sex and romance to click."

The star has also become increasingly candid as she gets older. Last year she finally admitted to having cosmetic surgery after previously insisting she’s never had any work done.

“My eyes were done when I was 40 and at the same time I had my boobs done," she said, before also telling the Times that she has had Botox, but wouldn’t get it again.

“I have tried it,” she said. “But as an actress I don’t think it works. I don’t have anything against it.

“I’m just saying if I’m playing a woman of my age who has to be animated I think it’s useful to actually have the muscles working.”'

Seymour also did a shoot for Playboy for the third time at the age of 67, making her the oldest woman to ever pose for the magazine.
