Iconic 70s actress sparks strong reactions after walking her dogs.

Walking away and starting anew

However, leaving her marriage was not a simple task.

“I couldn’t breathe in that environment any longer,” she admitted.

Despite the pain, her love for him remained genuine. “I didn’t really want anything from him. I just loved him. There was no hidden agenda.”

In the years that followed, she reflected with appreciation rather than resentment.

“There are some joyful memories with Cary. I’m thankful for the experience. It has shaped me into the woman I am today.”

The conclusion of their relationship signified the start of a long journey back to herself — a journey characterized by resilience, introspection, and faith.
