Jane Fonda on Cloud nine after third divorce
COPEHAGEN: Actress Jane Fonda has said she's happier than ever after her third divorce was finalised in May.
"Oddly enough, this is the most wonderful period of my life," she told reporters on Wednesday.
The 63-year-old actress was granted a divorce from CNN founder and billionaire Ted Turner, ending a marriage of nearly a decade.
"While sad, divorce doesn't necessarily mean failure. The things which cause us the most pain are also the things we learn most from," Fonda said at the International Council of Nurses' World Congress. She attended to help muster support for the nursing profession worldwide.
"Nurses are not paid enough because it's primarily a female profession, and they don't get the respect they deserve," she said. "But nurses are the bedrock of health care."
An activist since the Vietnam war, Fonda's recent conversion to Christianity - which Turner cited as a factor in their breakup - has given her social commitments extra drive.
"It doesn't matter if you're a late bloomer as long as you don't miss the flower show," she said. "I question everything I do in the light of what Jesus Christ would have done." (AP)
