Annie Potts is an actor who transcends generations.
Potts later reprised her role as Janine in the more modern “Ghostbusters” legacy sequels.
However,Potts' stunning transformationhasn’t been without its hurdles.
But she’s nothing if not a survivor and has only maintained that attitude as she’s aged.
“It’s like, ‘Man, this is great, because I almost didn’t have it.’
So I just attempt to relish it,” Potts toldSenior Planetin 2024.
“It’s made me really take care of my body because it got broken up pretty badly.
I have an appetite for life.”
With that in mind, here are some tragic details about “Young Sheldon” star Annie Potts.
Potts says the impact broke almost every bone in her lower body.
“I almost died,” Potts said point blank in her March 2024 interview with Senior Planet.
The actor spoke more about the life-changing incident that same month during a chat withThe Guardian.
“It took a very long time to recover.
I’m still trying to recover,” she confessed.
Despite the pain, Potts is very energetic and continues working to stay active and healthy.
As previously mentioned, Potts married her first husband, Steven Hartley, in 1973.
But when the 1970s ended, so too did Potts and Antonacci’s marriage.
She married film producer B. Scott Senechal in 1981.
The couple welcomed a son that same year, though they ended up calling it quits in 1989.
“It was like, Why did I think I needed somebody else?
I was totally self-sufficient and taking care of myself and happy about it.
I had my son in tow, and life was good,” she said.
However, the “Ghostbusters” star soon met her fourth husband, producer James Hayman.
The two wed in 1990 and have been together ever since, welcoming two more sons along the way.
“I really don’t understand why they canceled it because it’s the No.
1 show on Netflix.
I can say this now because it’s over: Are they stupid?”
“There’s been a lot of grieving,” she said of the show’s conclusion.
“I’m old, this could be my last rodeo.
