While the Monster-in-Law star has been single for a while now, there was a time it appeared that happily-ever-after was going to happen for her. She was married to CNN founder Ted Turner for nearly a decade. But in 2001, it was announced that they were getting divorced.

The then 63-year-old actress revealed, in a statement, that she felt "sadness" and mentioned that she would "always care" for Ted but it was time to move on.

Jane once opened up, in a poignant post, that she often found herself in a panic whenever she wasn’t in a relationship. However, after her divorce from Ted, "something felt different."

She revealed that she realized it was time to stop going from one relationship to the next, rather, she "needed to be still."

I was in a tiny bedroom with my golden retriever, Roxy, when suddenly it hit me: "I don’t need a man to feel whole."

Her choice to be single

Since her divorce from Ted in 2001, Jane Fonda chose to focus on being on her own life and finding happiness within herself.

During a recent interview with Vogue, she delved into this decision as she opened up about why she concluded it was best to stay single.

The 83-year-old actress shared that she was "way better now" as compared to where she was during her third divorce. She admitted she was "unhappy" about how things went down but she decided to devote the subsequent years into other areas.

The five years I put into writing my book and working on myself definitely paid off. I strongly recommend it. And I realize that I’m exactly where I want to be. I’m a single woman because I don’t have time to not be…single.
