Bridget Fonda, 62, makes rare public appearance as ’90s Hollywood star showcases new look in Los Angeles
Known for her roles in hits such as The Godfather III, Single White Woman, Singles, Point of No Return, This Could Happen to YouAnd Jackie Brown, Brigitte Fonda was a 90s icon who made a name for himself on the big screen. But in 2002, she stepped away from the spotlight and retired to spend time with her husband, Danny Elfmanand his family.
Although Fonda is rarely seen in public, fans recently spotted the 62-year-old during an outing in Los Angeles. And the celebrity sported a new, slimmer look.
This isn’t the first time photographers have taken photos of a finishing Fonda. In 2025, the Daily Mail reported that she lost what appeared to be about 75 pounds. The proof may have been in the photos, but Fonda never confirmed or denied the weight loss.
More recently, Page six has revealed new snaps of the ever-svelte reclusive star in classic black pants, a taupe top, a mustard yellow button-down shirt, white sneakers and a sleek black cross-body bag.

Of course, Fonda is more than just any 1990s star. She’s also Hollywood royalty. His grandfather was an actor Henry Fonda of On the golden pond And 12 angry men fame, his father was Easy rider icon Pierre Fondaand her aunt is 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. actress and activist Jane Fonda.
Given her family’s history in Hollywood, fans were shocked when Fonda (Bridget, of course) abandoned the celebrity lifestyle and quit acting in 2002. If you’re wondering if you’ll ever see her on screen again, the chances are slim. That is, unless you watch one of his ’90s gems.
Fonda rarely comments on her decision to retire, but in 2023, the former actress told the Daily Mail that she had no intention of returning, saying: “I don’t think so, it’s so good to be a civilian.”
What does it mean for Fonda to be a “civilian”? Based on the new photos, that includes strolls through stores in Los Angeles. Over the years, she also spent time with her famous music composer husband and their son Oliver (born 2005).
Although she seemed to insist on staying out of the spotlight, a source said in February Closer exclusively, “She feels really energized again. She’s lost a lot of weight and has really improved her health.” The source continued, “Her son is an adult now, (so) she has time to devote to herself and her own interests again, and her heart has returned to acting.”
