Joan, who is on vacation with her husband Percy, appeared upbeat as she tended to the terracotta tiles. Among the comments, Elizabeth Hurley – who just last week enjoyed a reunion with Joan – replied: "Domestic Goddess….who knew?"

Elizabeth's son, Damian Hurley, was also quick to respond. "Miss you already" he penned after returning from their joint vacation.

Looking seriously chic, Joan opted for a statement swimsuit, blue and white linen shorts and a Scandi-style gilet emblazoned with a floral print. A white watch, Audrey Hepburn-esque sunglasses, a silver rose ring and a large crucifix were among her accessories. 

Three days before her adventure at sea, Joan also remarked that she and Percy had been "Hanging with the Hurleys" at home. Joining them for dinner, Elizabeth rocked a white halterneck maxi dress, while Damian sported a black V-neck tee and dark jeans. 

As for Joan, the 91-year-old exuded radiance in an off-the-shoulder dress in ivory, complete with pearl earrings. Percy, 59, could be seen with his arms wrapped lovingly around his wife's waist, smiling in a pale linen suit.

In September 2023, Joan was asked to name her happy place. "In the south of France. We try to visit my place every summer. It's incredibly relaxing," she told Ideal Home

"There's no traffic, it's right in the middle of the hills of Provence and has a fantastic view. I can see the sea in the distance and rolling hills around. It balms the soul."

Joan and Percy, who tied the knot in 2002, are often seen travelling together on Instagram. Percy is Joan's fifth husband and during a candid chat with HELLO!, she lovingly referred to him as her "soulmate."

"It is my fifth marriage, and my happiest, and last. Percy is wonderful, he's my soul mate. That doesn't mean we don't bicker but we are very understanding of each other," she noted.

The actress has never been phased by her 32-year age gap with husband Percy

The couple may share a 32-year age gap, but it's never phased Joan. "I believe in marriage — which is why I've done it five times — and I finally have a wonderful marriage," the actress previously explained to Louis Theroux in a BBC documentary. 

"Percy is 30-odd years younger than me, but I don't even feel my age. I don't even talk about it, I don't even think about it."
