Future plans

Despite her age, the Absolutely Fabulous star does not want to give up on her career. She has had over seven decades of acting experience, and she has no plans to stop there.

She is intended to do it as long as she is given parts. But the actress honestly thinks she’s more suitable to play characters in a wheelchair or a bed because it’s a bit difficult for her to walk about too much.

Changing her lifestyle

Speaking of the latter, this may be the reason the legendary actress has left her big house and moved to a care home. But Whitfield enjoys it because she is surrounded by friends and peers there! And she doesn’t need to worry about the plumbing, the roof, or any other responsibilities.

But it is also possible that the actress just doesn’t want to live alone anymore, as she lost her husband 16 years ago and had lived alone ever since. Unlike the majority of modern showbiz relationships, June’s marriage with Tim Aitchison lasted 45 years. That’s the milestone not everyone can boast of!

On being made a dame

Prior to revealing the news of moving to a care home, Whitfield also opened up about the day she was made a dame. In 2017, the Duke of Cambridge gave her the honor for her achievements in entertainment and drama.
