Bond girl to Beatle's bride: See Barbara Bach 44 years into marriage
Share this @internewscast.com

Barbara Bach, now 79, became an icon for many American fans as the enchanting Bond girl in “The Spy Who Loved Me,” starring alongside Roger Moore.

Decades later, she conjured images from her husband Ringo Starr’s legendary Beatles era.

While parking her car and feeding the meter, she bore a resemblance to the character “Lovely Rita.”

This character was immortalized in a classic Beatles song written by Ringo’s bandmate Paul McCartney. The tune, inspired by a parking ticket McCartney received outside the famed Abbey Road studios in London, is a beloved track from the “Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band” album.

Barbara was vigilant in ensuring she wouldn’t meet the same fate as McCartney, carefully depositing enough money to ward off any eager parking officers.

Despite the passage of time, Barbara still exudes charm at 79. She has been happily married to Ringo for 44 years, after their paths crossed in 1980 on the set of the film “Caveman.” Their chemistry was undeniable, transforming the beloved Bond girl into the rock star drummer’s leading lady.

She had already found fame as KGB agent Anya Amasova – not too subtly referred to as Agent Triple X –in the tenth James Bond movie which centered on a plan by a megalomaniac’s plans to destroy the world and create a new one under the sea.

Before that she was one of the most sought-out faces in the modeling scene, posing for fashion magazines such as Vogue and Elle. 

One of her most iconic shoots was in a Playboy spread in 1981, a year after she caught the eye of one of rock’s greatest legends.

The couple endured their share of turmoil in the early years, from a near-fatal car crash to battles with addiction, before checking into rehab together and turning their lives around – trading their rock n’ roll lifestyle for outreach work and a commitment to vegetarianism.

Now, four-and-a-half decades after their love story first began she appeared radiant and effortlessly chic.

Dressed in sleek black slacks, a graphic T-shirt layered under a sharp blue blazer and pink-and-black sneakers, the American actress effortlessly nailed the balance between athleisure and business casual.

Bach has two children, daughter Francesca, 47, and son Gianni, 44, from her previous marriage to Italian industrialist Augusto Gregorini - she and Ringo never had children together but have remained married for over 44 years

She completed the look with a black designer bag, a stack of gold bracelets, a delicate necklace, multiple gold ring and a pair of classic aviator sunglasses.

While her husband wasn’t by her side for this outing, Ringo, 85, has been busy preparing for the launch of his latest exhibition of original artwork, set to open at Las Vegas’s Animazing Gallery. 

The collection draws inspiration from the vibrant 1980s ‘Spin Art’ style – with 100 percent of the proceeds will benefit their charity, the Lotus Foundation. 

The couple, who got sober together in 1988 after entering rehab, went on to co-found the Lotus Foundation in the 1990s. 

The organization focuses on funding, supporting, and promoting charitable projects that protect vulnerable animals and advance social welfare in areas ranging from substance abuse recovery to terminal illness care. 

The couple tied the knot in 1981 at London’s famed Marylebone Town Hall – just a year after meeting.

Since then, they have been nearly inseparable, with Bach joining The Beatles legend on numerous tours, appearing in several of his music videos and even inspiring lyrics in his songs.

Though they never had children together, both came into the marriage with families of their own. Bach shares two children, daughter Francesca, 47, and son Gianni, 44, with her ex-husband, Italian industrialist Augusto Gregorini, whom she divorced in 1978 after a decade of marriage.

Ringo, meanwhile, is father to three children from his previous marriage to Maureen Cox: Zak, 50, Jason, 48, and Lee, 45.
