Bond girl Jane Seymour's new fiancé was left red-faced after getting stuck under her bed naked following his marriage proposal. The screen star calls it a “miracle” she found her soon-to-be third husband, John Zambetti, who recently announced their engagement after three years of dating. However, despite her saying 'yes' to his proposal, things did not go according to plan for the veteran couple, now in their seventies.
The Proposal That Went Wrong
Composer Zambetti, 78, recounted the mishap: “I got down on my knees, the whole thing. I had the ring hidden in the safe, pulled out the ring. I opened the box, and the ring popped out of the box, onto the bed.” That is when things went awry: “Then I had to climb under the bed, and then I couldn’t get out, and she had to get out of the bed and pull me out of the bed.”
Seymour revealed that neither of them were “wearing any clothes” and she struggled to help her man in the buff. “Serious bedhead involved,” she said. “But the funniest part was that he couldn’t get up afterwards. His knee was now stuck from being under the bed and I’m not strong enough to pull him up because he weighs almost twice what I do. We looked at one another and started laughing hysterically.”
Love Later in Life
Former Bond girl Seymour, 75, is thrilled to be marrying the 78-year-old musician so late in life. “I love him. I cannot believe that I got lucky enough to find the perfect person at this time in my life,” she told Page Six. “I was not available before, and he wasn’t available before. So, you know, now is it, right now.”
Neither has any plans to retire or slow down after getting hitched. “He understands that I love what I do. I understand how much he loves what he does. And we’re just equally supportive of one another, and it’s great. I go off and make a movie, he is there with me. I turn around, and he’s put out four albums. I’m like, what? And then I’ve become his muse. So, now he’s written some amazing songs,” Seymour said.
A Youthful Spirit
Ageless Seymour added they “wake up like teenagers” every day together, while Zambetti said: “It’s like we’re at our parents’ house, but our parents never come home.” Seymour was previously married to director Michael Attenborough from 1971 to 1973, and then to Geoffrey Planer until 1978.
