What are Barbara's secrets to a long, healthy life? She credits a balanced diet of protein and vegetables. In a 2021 interview with Closer, she said, "I’m a carnivore … I like steak. We eat a lot of pork, chicken, steak [and] vegetables." Barbara explained that, while she maintains a healthy diet, she indulges her sweet tooth: "We don’t stint ourselves on desserts. I eat a lot. I like dessert. I like gumdrops. Those are fun." She stays active by walking and weight training.

Barbara told People that she sees her decades-long career as a "gift": "All through the years, I’ve noticed that many people don't realize what a joy it is and what a gift it is to be able to work in an arena that you really love. So many people have to work in jobs they hate, and they have to do it just for sustenance, but aren't we lucky when we can study for something, enjoy it and know that other people enjoy it? I think that's a gift that life gives us, if we are willing to work for it."

Words to live by from a Hollywood icon!
