A lot of people had a crush on her in the 1980s, but look at her now…

After her breakout role in “Crocodile Dundee”, Linda Kozlowski found herself thrust into the international spotlight. Starring opposite Paul Hogan, the film marked a significant milestone in her career trajectory. However, following the “Dundee” series and a handful of other projects, Kozlowski gradually veered away from the glitz and glamor of Hollywood.

Hailing from Fairfield, Connecticut, Linda Kozlowski was born on January 7, 1958, with aspirations of treading the boards. She pursued her passion for acting by enrolling in the prestigious theater program at the Juilliard School. Upon graduating in 1981, she made her mark in various off-Broadway productions before transitioning to minor roles on Broadway and television. Notably, she starred alongside Dustin Hoffman in the television movie “Death of a Salesman”, marking a significant milestone in her career.

Linda’s path to fame wasn’t without its hurdles. Following her stint as a waitress post-“Death of a Salesman”, she relocated to California. It was there, under the wing of her mentor Dustin Hoffman and his wife, that Linda found refuge in their Malibu beach house. It was from this humble abode that Linda embarked on an audition that would alter the course of her life.

Dustin Hoffman’s endorsement landed Linda the coveted role of Sue Charlton in “Crocodile Dundee”, a character she portrayed with aplomb. The film’s astronomical success, raking in over $320 million against a $10 million budget, catapulted Linda Kozlowski into stardom virtually overnight. Interestingly, her fame initially soared in Australia due to the film’s early release there.

Despite her newfound celebrity status, Linda felt somewhat overlooked in Hollywood. While she reprised her role in the “Crocodile Dundee” sequels, she declined numerous offers for roles that pigeonholed her as the quintessential girlfriend of a comedic lead. Ultimately, Linda decided to bid adieu to acting after the third installment of “Dundee”.

In her personal life, Linda Kozlowski found love on set with her co-star Paul Hogan during the “Crocodile Dundee” series. They tied the knot in 1990 and welcomed their son, Chance, in 1998. However, their marriage dissolved in 2014. Following her divorce from Paul Hogan, Linda received a substantial settlement, empowering her to chart her own course. She turned her gaze towards Morocco, where she crossed paths with Moulay Hafid Baba, a native tour guide, sparking a profound life transformation.

Together, Linda and Moulay Hafid Baba founded the luxury travel agency Dream My Destiny in Marrakech. Crafting bespoke travel experiences tailored to their clients’ desires became their passion. Linda seamlessly transitioned from the glitz of Hollywood to the enchanting vistas of Morocco.

While Linda Kozlowski may have bid farewell to the silver screen, her legacy as Sue Charlton in “Crocodile Dundee” endures. At 63, she embraces her adventurous spirit and finds fulfillment in her new life in Morocco. She believes that reality surpasses fiction, channeling her intuition honed during her acting career into curating unforgettable experiences for travelers around the globe.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to Jon Bon Jovi and his family for their tragic loss

Days before her birthday, Jon Bon Jovi’s mother Carol Bongiovi passed away.

She was dubbed a “force to be reckoned with” by the singer.

JON Three days prior to being eighty-three, Bon Jovi’s mother, Carol Bongiovi, passed away.

Jon, 62, spoke empathetically about Carol following her death on Tuesday at Monmouth Medical Center in Long Branch, New Jersey.

Jon told PEOPLE, “Our mother was a force to be reckoned with; her spirit and can-do attitude shaped this family.”

“We will miss her terribly.”

Carol, a former Playboy bunny, founded the fan club for her son’s band.

She met her future husband, John Bongiovi, Sr., after she enlisted in the U.S. Marine Corps in 1959.

Following that, they relocated to Holmdel, New Jersey, where she lived until her passing.

It was reported that Holmdel Funeral Home will oversee Carol’s private funeral.

Her three children, Jon, Anthony, and Matthew, as well as her 63-year-old husband, will miss her.

Jon has previously stated that when he was a child and desired to be a musician, his parents provided him with “incredible support.”

In November 2020, he said, “Even if you weren’t good at your craft, you could work on it if you thought you were,” to The Big Issue.

“As I grew older, I realized how wonderful my parents’ gift to me was.

“They genuinely believed John F. Kennedy was directing them to travel to the moon.” “You can go to the moon, of course.” Just go, John. I visited that place.

The performer told about how his parents used to take him to concerts when he was seventeen.

When Jon was seventeen, his parents allowed him to perform at events, which allowed him to pursue his aspirations.

“They were always there for me, which was amazing looking back,” he remarked.

“Because I could have to be at school at eight o’clock and get home at one or two in the morning.”

“They just told me to go to school on time, you know that’s my responsibility, but follow your dreams.”

The girl Jon fell in love with in high school, Dorothea Hurley, is the wife he married.

Together, they are parents to three sons, Jesse, Jake, and Romeo, and a thirty-one-year-old daughter, Stephanie.

Model Jake wed Stranger Things actress Millie Bobby Brown in a tiny, private ceremony in May 2024, according to the first story from The Sun.

The parents of Millie and Jon attended the little wedding.

He expressed his excitement for the wedding to The Sun the week prior.

“My grandchildren will have more English ancestry than Italian or any other heritage I may have” That must be absurd, right? The musician screamed.

“Your kids are married and talking to you about having grandchildren all of a sudden? Wow!” In my book, this is the longest chapter.
