London - Jane Fonda has admitted that she is “not proud” of having had plastic surgery.
The 77-year-old actress said she grew up feeling “defined” by her looks and had no choice but to go under the knife.
But surgery did not solve any of her deeper problems and only created more “trouble” for her in later life, she revealed.
Fonda, who became a sex symbol after her role in 1968 film Barbarella, is often held up as an example of a woman who has aged gracefully and retains her beauty.
She has admitted to having work done on her face and eyes, leaving her with a complexion that belies her age.
In an interview with W magazine she said: “I did have plastic surgery. I’m not proud of the fact that I’ve had it. But I grew up so defined by my looks. I was taught to think that if I wanted to be loved, I had to be thin and pretty. That leads to a lot of trouble.”
