You may remember her as one of the iconic Bond girls, but if you were to pass her on the street today, you might not even recognize her. Maud Adams, now 79 years old, has certainly changed since her days of fame and glory. She made history by being the only woman to appear in two James Bond films, with a decade separating her roles. However, she now prefers to keep a low profile and live a quiet life with her husband of 25 years, retired judge Charles Rubin.
Recently, Maud was spotted leaving her Los Angeles home wearing a cap and large sunglasses, making it almost impossible to recognize her as the blonde-haired star from her prime acting days nearly 50 years ago. Back then, she was known for her voluminous brown locks and dazzling smile. Her last acting role was in the African drama series Blood Legacy, and since then, she has chosen to stay out of the spotlight.
But before her retirement, Maud made a guest appearance on That 70's Show in 2000, playing Tanya Roberts' bridesmaid alongside her fellow Bond co-stars Kristina Wayborn and Barbara Carrera. It was a memorable moment for both the show and the actresses, as they all had the title of "Bond girl" at some point in their careers.
Maud's first Bond film was in 1973, where she played the mistress of Christopher Lee's villainous character, Francisco Scaramanga, in The Man with the Golden Gun. This role propelled her career, and she went on to star in her second Bond film, Octopussy, in 1983. What's even more impressive is that Maud is the only Bond girl to have appeared in more than one film.
After her success in the Bond franchise, Maud's career took off. She starred in the American television series Emerald Point NAS and Jane and the Lost City, but was unable to secure any leading roles after her time as a Bond girl. However, her performances in the films were highly praised, and she even earned a special place in the heart of film producer Albert Broccoli.
Aside from her acting career, Maud has been married twice, first to Roy Adams for nine years and currently to Charles Rubin. She does not have any children, but she was recently spotted walking her two adorable dogs. It seems that Maud has found happiness in a quiet and private life after her time in the spotlight.
