Ending a relationship always comes with signs, sometimes noticed after the fact, but they are always there.
A surprising and darkly humorous moment marked the end of three marriages for Hollywood icon Jane Fonda, and countless women are relating to it.
Jane Fonda’s revelation about her marriages being over in a hilariously relatable way.
Well, that seems like a good indicator, right?
The 85-year-old actor had three husbands during her lifetime: French filmmaker Roger Vadim, activist Tom Hayden, and media mogul Ted Turner.
Fonda openly discussed the challenges she faced in all three marriages, from infidelity to drinking problems, as well as issues linked to her relationship with her father.
But what was the simple clue that gave her the insight about each failed marriage?
During a podcast interview, Fonda shared, “I always know when a marriage is going to end sooner or later because I’m starting to fantasize about his funeral,” she said, amidst laughter in the background.
The insight resonated with women who found themselves in a similar situation.
In addition to the death fantasies, Fonda also revealed her approach to maintaining friendships with her exes.
Fonda shared her personal technique of expressing anger by writing a letter and never sending it to her exes which helped her maintain a friendship with media mogul Ted Turner post the end of their marriage.
Fonda remains open to love, but with a caveat.
Fonda humorously mentioned her preference for a lover who is 20 because she doesn’t prefer old skin.
Fonda hinted at a possible burning of the letters to her exes as a symbolic gesture to focus on positivity and cherished memories.
