British actress Jane Seymour, 62, stepped out with her estranged husband James Keach, 65, over the weekend, despite the fact that the couple are undergoing divorce proceedings. Days after their separation was announced, the stars put on a united front at the Open Hearts Foundation fundraiser as they posed with charity's beneficiaries, one of whom is shown below. Jane is closely associated with the social foundation, whose symbol she adopted for her jewellery collection.
The evergreen actress looked glamorous in her blue gown with scoop neck and jewelled shoulder straps. On Saturday it was announced that Jane, who recently appeared on US show Dancing with the Stars, was ending her 20-year marriage to film producer James. The couple were married in 1993 and are parents to twins John and Kristopher, who are 17. Jane also has two children, Katherine and Sean, with her ex-husband David Flynn."The couple confirm that they are separated and have been for several months," a rep for Jane and James told People magazine. "At this time they are negotiating the terms of their divorce." The statement added, "They will continue their relationship as devoted parents to their children, as business associates and partners, and in their joint dedication to preserving and furthering the charitable endeavours that they've worked on throughout their marriage."
It will be the fourth divorce for the actress, best known for her role in the TV series Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman and for finding fame in the 1973 Bond film, Live and Let Die. Her first marriage was to Michael Attenborough – a theatre director and prominent member of the Attenborough clan which includes Michael's uncle, the environmentalist Sir David Attenborough. After they divorced, Jane found love again with Geoffrey Planer, who was a friend of the Attenboroughs. They divorced after one year of marriage and Jane wed David Flynn, with whom she went on to have two children. Now, the star is separating from her fourth husband after 20 years together. Despite their personal differences, it seems Jane and James remain on good terms.
