Jane Fonda has grown up in the spotlight, the daughter of socialite Frances Ford Seymour and legendary Hollywood actor Henry Fonda, and has quite the storied life to prove for it.
The star, now 86, has not only made headlines for her acclaimed on-screen work and her passionate activism and political views, but also her personal life, comprising her many romances.
However, despite being linked with some of the world's most incredible figures throughout the decades, the actress only tied the knot three times, and has been unmarried (and thriving) since 2001.
Below, here's what you need to know about Jane's three husbands, all of whom encapsulate very different phases of her life…

Jane's first marriage came in 1965 with French filmmaker Roger Vadim, who was a renowned playboy at the time, known for his romances with younger, beautiful actresses (he'd already been twice married, to Brigitte Bardot and Annette Stroyberg).

The couple began dating in 1963 and tied the knot in 1965, welcoming their daughter Vanessa in 1968, the same year Roger directed her in the iconic Barbarella. However, by 1970, separation reports began surfacing, and their separation was official in 1972, though they remained friends.

They also adopted a teenage daughter, Mary Luana Williams, in 1982, whose parents were Black Panthers. While the pair fell in love thanks to their shared love for activism and their political beliefs, it couldn't keep them together. They were estranged by 1988 and officially divorced by 1990.

In 1991, Jane tied the knot with controversial media mogul Ted Turner, who founded CNN and is known for his many philanthropic donations, with a net worth of over $2 billion. While Jane and Ted didn't have children, she became stepmother to his five kids (plus two of Roger's).
