Barbra Streisand Declares Her Desire to “Just Wander” with Her Spouse…
Spending her golden years with people closest to her heart is what Barbra Streisand desires.
The renowned singer and actress revealed her desire to spend more time with her family and her husband of 25 years, actor James Brolin, in an interview with the BBC before to the publication of her eagerly anticipated memoir, My Name Is Barbra, on Tuesday.
The outlet published an interview with Streisand, 81, that she gave on Sunday. “I want to live life,” she said. “I want to climb in my husband’s truck and head off on a wandering expedition, presumably in the vicinity of the kids. When they visit, I enjoy life more. We had a good time while they play with the dogs. “To be honest with you, I haven’t had a lot of fun in my life,” she continued. “And I’d like to enjoy myself more.”
“To be honest with you, I haven’t had a lot of fun in my life,” she continued. “And I’d like to enjoy myself more.” Along with her ex-husband Elliott Gould, Streisand is the mother of Jason Gould, 56, and the stepmother of James’ three children, Josh, 55, Jess, 52, and Molly, 35. In addition, she is the grandmother of Josh’s four children: Eden, 29, Trevor, 35, Westlyn, 5, and Chapel, 2.
The year prior, Streisand’s spouse, who is also an actress and whom she married in 1998, disclosed to PEOPLE the key to their enduring union. James, eighty-three, who was arranged on a blind date with Streisand, declared, “I think everybody needs to be a negotiator,” “Everybody needs to have patience and know when to take a walk.”
According to Streisand’s autobiography, she met her current husband “when I had pretty much given up on finding love.” To be honest, I didn’t mind being alone.” “I had my son, I had great friends to keep me company, my work was fulfilling, and I loved my new house in Malibu overlooking the ocean,” she goes on to say, “Maybe you have to be happy with yourself before you can be happy with someone else.”
In addition, Streisand said earlier this month that she will be narrating the audiobook version of her memoir, which describes her early years, her prodigious career on theater and cinema, and her ascent to fame.
