French icon Brigitte Bardot, known for her ageless beauty and famous film roles, made a rare appearance on her 89th birthday. After years out of the spotlight, Bardot was spotted driving a car in the south of France for the first time in a long time.
Throughout her stellar career, Bardot has not only captivated audiences with her screen presence, but has also been an active advocate for animal rights.
Offstage, Bardot shares a strong bond with her devoted husband Bernard d’Ormal, whom she secretly married in 1992. Despite initial doubts from friends, Bardot and d’Ormal survived, celebrating 31 years of marriage.
Their strong partnership has survived some scary health-related moments, including recent breathing problems earlier this year, from which Bardot thankfully recovered with the support of her husband.
Although Bardot has aged greatly, her presence continues to inspire. Her recent outing serves as a reminder of her enduring legacy and the impact she has had on fans around the world.
Despite the passage of time, Bardot remains a timeless symbol of elegance, perseverance and unwavering passion.
