Jane Seymour, 73, blasts ageism: There’s no ‘sell-by date for women’

Age is just a number for Jane Seymour.

“Life does go on, and I don’t think there is a sell-by date for women unless they choose it,” the actress, 73, told Page Six exclusively Tuesday at the premiere of “Irish Wish” in New York City.

Seymour added that she has no desire to turn back the clock.

“A lot of people say, ‘Don’t you wish you were younger?’ and, in a funny way, no because I’ve had so much experience, and I’ve had such a rich life and made so many friends and so many extraordinary experiences,” she said. “My life is very full now, and hopefully I’m wiser.”

Part of that “full” life is the “Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman” star’s relationship with her boyfriend, John Zambetti.

Earlier this year, Seymour shared that she is having the best sex of her life with the musician.

“Sex right now is more wonderful and passionate than anything I ever remember because it is built on trust, love and experience,” she wrote in an essay for Cosmopolitan’s “Sex After 60” digital issue.

“I now know myself and my body, and John has had his own experiences in his life — it’s not like when you’re younger.”

Several years ago, Seymour shared that a “major” producer asked her to visit his home in 1972 to screen test for a role and then allegedly harassed her.

After rebuffing his aggressive advances, he allegedly threatened her.

“‘If anyone knows you ever came here, if you ever tell anyone, ever, I’ll guarantee you never work again anywhere on the planet,’” she recalled him saying. “And he had that power. I got in the cab and cried, terrified.”

The incident led Seymour to briefly quit acting and move back to the UK.

“Women have put up with a lot, and I think they still do,” she told Page Six.

“I’ve recently done a campaign about women being unseen and unheard, and it’s true, especially when I talk to women who have gone to doctor’s offices and places like that. Women need to be encouraged to stand up for themselves, especially my generation; that wasn’t the case back then.”

Now, Seymour is acting again, most recently appearing in “Irish Wish” as Lindsay Lohan’s mother.

“I was only on the movie [set] for two days, but I had a blast,” she enthused to us. “When you watch the movie, I’m in it quite a lot, but we shot the whole thing in two days. I keep bopping up!”
