Rachel Ward was beautiful in her hey day and she’s just as beautiful now, with no Botox or fillers in sight. I loved her in the Thorn Birds.
I love Rachael-she's real. When she makes the comment about trying not to drink so much, l get the feeling that she's in some emotional pain, like so many of us around her same age. I struggle with that myself, as many women do. We love you Rachael.
My mom was born in '56 so I guess around the same age.
Do you have any advice for how I can support her? I guess she's struggling but not showing it.
I struggle too and am pretty much ambivalent and totally empty inside, it's hard to even care for myself and even harder to care for someone else. But I would like to support my mom if I could. But how do I do it when I don't even believe in myself.
Rachel Ward and her husband are Total Legends. Oh yes they are!
She was the star of the Thorn Birds. She was such a gorgeous young woman. Still beautiful.
That was one of my favorite movies EVER, I've probably watched it over 100 times...and I still have it on DVD 💞 the book was amazing too!
Haha I'm watching the Thorn Birds "AGAIN" as I write this!💞
So true!!! I loved her in Against All Odds and The Thorn Birds! Wish she never gave up acting as she was so natural, but glad she pursued other passions and has done very well!!
I loved these two in The Thorn Birds, and knew they'd married, but I hadn't heard anything about them since. SO nice to see that after all these years, they are still happy together! Still a handsome couple
They genuinely fell in love with each other on the set of The Thorn Birds.
I was IN the Thornbirds in 1982 on Kauai with RW and BB. I was in the scene with Rachel walking down the street when she was supposed to be eating something out of a paper cone. I was 19. That day I chatted with the director and at that moment I decided to major in TV production. I have two degrees in TV production and worked in prime time hour-drama television for 15 years in Los Angeles. At 40 I went to grad school for interior architecture at UCLA. I’m now a designer in LA. I still have the photos from the set that day of you both. I have many famous clients and friends here but that moment in time is still special to me. And I just realized I’ve been in a boat cruising past your home in Sydney and had no idea. Lol cheers, Kurt
That's amazing, as they say... Its a small world 😄The Thorn Birds was so good, read it as a young woman years ago...and watched it on TV also. I'm 54now...How the years fly. Greetings from Ireland 🍀🇮🇪
@@eleanorryanryan2442 I love Ireland too!
I went to school with Stephen Burns who played one of the brothers in the Thornbirds. Sadly he passed away.
@@KaliforniaLA Yes it is beautiful... My three sisters lived in Sydney for a couple of years back in 1989 aprox and loved the experience... 🇮🇪
I had to look up what age they are. Bryan is 73 and she’s 63. I’m glad they seem happy and had a successful marriage.
Gosh Bryan doesn't look 73
Both look great to me we all age unfortunately pure natural beauty no work done growing old gracefully I wanna hang out with them beautiful relationship beautiful family place peaceful fun stay strong stay safe Rachel and family takecare xxx
my favorite actress from the thorn bird
I love Rachel Ward so much . I recently watched Against all odds and their chemistry with Jeff is such amazing and Iconic 😭😭😭💔💔💔💔😍😍😍
Wow, she's still so beautiful just naturally beautiful!
Always admired her acting and beauty,I miss her acting,loved her hair styles in movies,especially in Thorn birds and all her movies,wish she come back on screen,love her,miss her
I’ve loved her since Against All Odds. ❤️❤️❤️😊🥰 🌹
My goodness! She is still gorgeous!
Such a wonderful genuine couple so talented warm and friendly. 🌸🌺🌻 such great Aussies 😊 thanks for sharing.
I love Rachel, I love the sound of her voice, she has amazed me always. I love Brian. My life has been so wasted and hers is so..so. there aren't enough words. 🌻
I'm sure your life has not been wasted. No one's is. Don't sell yourself short.
If you're a good friend and are there for others, your life isn't wasted 💕
It's funny she said the drink she's making is good for the brain but before that, she couldn't remember the name of the powder she was using 😆
The blueberries aren't working because the wine and joints are cancelling them out 😐
Beautiful home. Beautiful couple. Fun 5 mins. Thank you.
Ended too soon though!
Love Rachel Ward....she’s so talented and cute.....so genuine too. She’d be fun to hang with....her husband is funny too. They are both great actors ....love those Aussies!
Rachel humors him very well.
Take a look at her now. Aging gracefully!
Rachel Ward is still such a beauty. Love her!
They seem so laid back and live so normally which is lovely. Low maintenance by the looks of things.
What a voice!! Takes me right back to thorn birds lol .......Oh Ralph! ...haha
And he was the “evil”Luke😂
Omg they’re ADORABLE - I can’t STAND it! “Cholesterol”?! I’m dying. 😂
I write this from an emotional and spiritual state. I didn't know that Rachel Ward was married to Bryan Brown! I personally got to know both of these two magnificant people though each of their breake through love movies in the 80's - Against all odds and Cocktail. Beyond the great movies and the characters they played, I sensed something in them, some charisma and an energy in their eyes and smiles, that had to come from a warm place within. I wanted to know more about both of them, so I Googled both of them... And then, literally 5 minutes ago to my surprice I learn that those two were married! I can only say - the theory about connection through mutual vibration is real!
Advance Happy Birthday Miss Rachel Ward... God Bless and more candles to blow...
Great actors both and absolutely lovely couple, so very Australians, loved it! cheers
One of my fav movies !
Against All Odds 🎥
Rachel is 🔥 🔥 !
Jeff Bridges, James Woods such a good movie
She took my breath away as a wee lad. She struck me as one of the most beautiful creatures I had ever seen. A mere 40 years later...And She is still attractive to me! None of my other affectations are.
She was so gorgeous in Against All Odds
Aussies are always down to earth.
She's a British aristo
@@TheBeautifulWindsofAragon l know that.
Think Rachel Ward is English. Julia Johnson
She's actually British but lives in Australia
After watching the Against All Odds music video featuring Rachael andnthe scenes from that movie. ♥️ I Love this, she's still gorgeous. Note: Alcohol increases and exercise lowers cholesterol.
This is the teacher in that Fortress 1985 film that has been giving people nightmares since we all saw it as kids in the 1980s.
Had a huge crush on this lady back in the day. Great to see how NORMAL she is 😊
Indeed !
Thorn birds forever stay strong stay safe everyone sending love from UK takecare xxx
Love Rachel Ward & Bryan Brown ... cool house, amazing views ... brekky looks interesting :/
I actually loved Rachel Ward in After Dark, My Sweet. That movie had a sad sexiness to it. She and Jason Patric gave me goosebumps.
These two are just as good looking as they were on The Thorn Birds. Colleen McCoullough might not have like the screen adaptation of her book but I think the actors were amazing.
Why are you lying?
I love this lady and I love this house too. Totally unpretentious just like its inhabitants.
Rachel is by far the sexiest woman that ever lived.
OMG!! Rachel you are hysterical! Who knew?? XOXOXO
The most beautiful lady a have even seen when she was on thorn birds she stll is good looking for her age
When I started eating sardines three times a week, my bad cholesteral fell nine points and my good cholesteral raised up 11 points. No kidding. All in two months, too. My doctor said, "Wow, that's quite a change."
Wow really. Please would you let me know was this tin sardines or did you cook them??? I am desperately trying to get mine down font want to take tablets. Please let me know what you did to lower yours. From U.K. thank you
Yes I eat them good for my joints
There got a lovley colonial house, love how it's so homely pictures ect , good choice !

Rachel so down-to-earth and natural, what you see is what you get, and that is rare. Love their home, and I too think it's nice to sit down and chill with a joint
I just luv she forgot she had weed just sitting there😆
Brian Brown, outstanding actor.
I wish they would invite me to breakfast! I would even volunteer to wash the dishes!
This feels normal - I miss Sydney. Rachel is cool, Brian just wanted to get in on the act for a minute! Great video, thanks!
Great couple. Rachel seems really funny. "stick sister" lol...love it.
Rachel Ward is gorgeous as ever. Loved her in "The Thornbirds"

Not much of a breakfast....or brekkie as you Aussies say, however it was awesome to hang out with you guys for a bit!
I named our daughter after you Rachel!💕💕💕💕
She still looks attractive.
😮🎤 How can I just let you walk away?
Just let you leave without a trace
When I stand here taking every breath, with you, ooh
You're the only one who really knew me at all 🎵🎶 🎵
I thought she was going to convince me that that joint in the kitchen lowers her cholesterol.
Awe Rachel you look absolutely beautiful! We miss you. ❤ God Bless
Ward shines in film, SHARKEY'S MACHINE
I love this couple.
They both are beautiful still…yes they was and they are and they always be. 🥰💕💕💕
You can tell she hasn't had any work done.
Very nice, but a touch from the 50s on today's women wouldn't harm.
PORRA! DUAS LENDAS CASADOS? É ISSO MESMO! BROWN E WARD? ! QUE DUPLA? FAMÍLIA TALENTOSA.
