Bo Derek Stole 30-Years-Older Man at 16 from Actress She ‘Worshipped’ — They Were Married for 22 Years

Today, Bo Derek is happily married but once ruined the marriage of an actress she adored by stealing her husband. Although Bo and the man eventually tied the knot and were married for 22 years, she still hates herself for doing it. Here are the details.

American Actress and Model Bo Derek has been in the movie industry for many years. Her career skyrocketed in 1979, following her appearance in the romantic comedy “10.”

Afterward, the Hollywood star bagged roles in other productions such as “Bolero,” “Tarzan, the Ape Man,” “Ghosts Can’t Do It,” and many others.

Although Bo only shot to fame in 1979, she had already been in the acting business. At age 16, she was cast in “Fantasies,” directed by John Derek, a man who would eventually become Bo’s first husband. During a chat with Interview Magazine, the actress recalled how the interview for the movie role made her meet John.

According to Bo, she had gotten a call from her agent, explaining that she had an interview for a role in a few days. Next, she told her inquisitive mom, who was by her side, that the interview was with John Derek.

Immediately, the actress’s mom was excited and could not hold back her thoughts about how handsome the director was. A few days later, Bo would confirm her mother’s words when she saw John for the first time. In the “Bolero” star’s words:

A LOVE AFFAIR IN A FOREIGN LAND

When Bo and John first met, the latter married Veteran Actress Linda Evans. The director was also 30 years Bo’s senior, but the age gap and John’s marital status did not stop the “10” star from falling in love.

During the chat with Interview Magazine, Bo explained that their romance blossomed in Mykonos, even though her mom was there, making it feel awkward and strange.

According to the actress, she and John’s love was incredible. Bo explained that John admired strong women, and she was one, even though she was very young.

So, while at Mykonos, the actress knew their love was not as one-sided as many may have thought. Their romance grew with each passing day, and after filming was over, the pair were ready to go public with it.

Following the controversies surrounding Bo’s 22-year first marriage, the actress never expected to find love again.
