When you think of Lara Flynn Boyle, you might remember her as the beloved star of Twin Peaks and other hit shows and movies from the ’90s. But nowadays, it seems like she has disappeared from the public eye. In fact, when she was recently spotted in Los Angeles walking her dog, it was quite a surprising sight.
At 50 years old, Lara Flynn Boyle looked noticeably frail, covering herself with an oversized coat to shield herself from the scorching California sun. What caught people’s attention was her decision not to wear a face mask during her neighborhood walk. But despite that, the actress appeared makeup-free, showcasing her flawless complexion.
Lara, who was once romantically linked to Jack Nicholson and Kyle MacLachlan, is now married to Donald Ray Thomas II, a real estate investor. They tied the knot in 2006 in Texas after her previous marriage ended in divorce.
In recent years, Lara Flynn Boyle has preferred to keep a low profile. We rarely see her in public, and her most recent public appearance was back in 2018 when she was photographed behind the wheel of her car, holding a bottle of Johnnie Walker Red Label. It’s safe to say she wasn’t discreet about indulging in the strong spirit while driving.
But despite the rumors and speculation surrounding her, Lara Flynn Boyle remains unfazed. She has never officially addressed the plastic surgery rumors that have been swirling around for years. And in a recent interview with The Hollywood Reporter, she addressed the criticism she has faced throughout her career with a positive outlook.
“This career I have chosen has been kinder to me than it hasn’t,” Lara said. “If I can’t handle the choppy and bumpy ride, I don’t have any business being on a roller coaster in the first place.”
When it comes to the negative attention and unflattering images that circulate online, Lara stays oblivious. She doesn’t own a computer or smartphone and relies on positive people around her to guide her in the right direction.
“Ignorance is bliss,” she emphasized. And besides, she knows that accepting the negative attention is just part of being in the spotlight.
While Lara Flynn Boyle may have stepped out of the Hollywood limelight, she will always be remembered for her iconic roles and her fascinating personal life. She continues to embody the spirit of an enigmatic star, captivating the hearts of her fans even as she chooses to live life on her own terms.
