On a personal level, Channing has kept a low profile. The Grease star, who has always been ”reckless” with a restless streak in her, has no children.
She has been married and divorced four times. As for today, she finds comfort in her constant companion of several years, her dog.
In recent years, Channing has also received attention for her changing look. It all started in 2017 when Lorraine, a British breakfast television show, interviewed her.
Channing was invited to talk about her acting career and the characters she’s played, but many people were more interested in how she looked. They were surprised by how much she had changed, and there were lots of comments on Twitter and articles in magazines.
Some viewers were shocked and wondered if she had gotten plastic surgery. One person wrote, “Oh my god, what happened to Rizzo?” Another said they were “shocked” by her appearance on the show “Lorraine” and questioned why she had undergone surgery.
One article in the Daily Mail even had a surgeon speculating that Channing had used Botox. But thankfully, others stood up for her. It’s normal for people to age, and it’s natural that an 80-year-old woman’s appearance changes over time.
To me, Channing still has that same cool and sexy personality she had when she played Rizzo. In an interview with Out magazine in 2011, she joked about doing “everything I can” to stay in shape.
“When you reach a certain age, you often end up playing a lot of mothers. Maybe if I had kids, I’d feel differently, but I don’t like being seen as someone’s mom,” she laughed. “Maybe they watched a lot of ‘The Golden Girls.’ I’m grateful for anyone who grew up with ‘The Golden Girls,’ but times have changed, and I hope people see that.”
I love Stockard Channing in Grease, she was absolutely amazing as Rizzo! We wish you all the best in the future!
