The actress frequently visits France in the summer months

Joan is very open when it comes to her age-defying secrets. She credits her youthful appearance to sun protection and reportedly never leaves the house without SPF on.

"I have always worn sun protection and have kept my face away from harmful rays since I was 20," she told You magazine in 2014.

"You should see me when I wake up in the morning: my face is so white, it's like a sheet."

The Dynasty star has shared some of her beauty secrets over the years

Meanwhile, in 2019, she told the Mirror: "I'm very disciplined. I don't go to bed without taking off my make-up and putting on night cream. My mother had me and sister Jackie doing that when we were 14."

Joan's lavish getaway comes after she nailed horticultural chic at the much-loved Chelsea Flower Show alongside her husband Percy Gibson.

The duo appeared in high spirits as they toured the gardens

For the splendid occasion, the star looked radiant in a pair of white leg-lengthening flared trousers which she teamed with a simple cream top and a rose-hued blazer.

She elevated her look with some stylish espadrilles and a fabulous wide-brim straw hat complete with a whimsical tulle bow.

Adding a dose of horticultural glamour, Joan also wore a dramatic floral brooch featuring pink-tipped petals and a pair of pearl-embellished flower earrings. Stunning!

The couple looked so loved-up as they posed for photographs

In photos shared from the idyllic outing, Joan was pictured with her husband, Percy. The couple, who tied the knot in 2002, looked smitten posing for numerous photos with broad grins spread across their faces.

Echoing his wife's elegant attire, Percy, 59, looked dapper in a pair of neutral chinos, a periwinkle blue shirt and a navy blazer studded with gleaming gold buttons.

Who is Percy Gibson?

Percy is a Hollywood producer known for his work on shows such as Who Wants to be a Millionaire. The star, who is 31 years Joan's junior, is her fifth husband, following her previous marriages to Maxwell Reed, Anthony Newley, Ron Kass, and Peter Holm.

"He takes care of everything," Joan told Saga magazine. "He takes care of my children and all our finances. He's the love of my life. It's a great marriage, a great relationship."
