It was great to see them all back together again.

However, filming the show wasn’t an easy time for Smith.

She went through 2 divorces over the 5 series of Charlie’s Angels.

And her bad luck didn’t stop there…

She went through another divorce in the late eighties.

Then, in 2003, the star was diagnosed with breast cancer.

She told the Daily Mail about her experience: “It’s part of my history and it changes you: you need to seize the day.”

She continued: “And we need to be more grateful.

“Maybe we all complain a little too much.”

But now, the star has revealed the secret to staying young…

And it’s really not what you’d expect!

Smith says she owes her youthful looks to her own fat!

She said: “I don’t believe in fillers and I haven’t done any cutting. If I put anything in my face, I use my own fat, which is hard to do.”

The star, now seventy-six years old, lives in Los Angeles, where her business is based.

Her skincare and clothing business is worth millions of dollars.

Smith also revealed why she shies away from Botox: “My husband says if you do Botox over and over, it totally collapses the muscle.

“You can overdo it in this town like nobody’s business. And when you get done it’s not a good look.”

The actress went on to discuss how she managed to avoid the drug-fuelled culture of the seventies.

“Some of it went against my upbringing,” she said, “I had never seen a drug.”

She concluded: “I never walked with that crowd. I took a detour. I’ve still never touched drugs.”
