Her journey to stardom began modestly, fueled by ambition and undeniable talent. A breakthrough moment came when she landed a role in “The Bionic Woman,” playing Jaime Sommers, a tennis pro who becomes a crime-fighting hero after receiving bionic implants.

“Wow! My childhood hero!!” one person commented on a throwback post the actress shared of herself on Instagram. Another typed, “Absolutely Beautiful!!😍😍😍.”

She even wrote the show’s final episode, saying, “How Jaime Sommers was feeling — not like a woman but like a kind of robot — was the way I was feeling about the series.”

The demands of fame took a heavy toll. Working 16-hour days left her physically and emotionally drained, and inter-studio battles added to her stress. The actress confessed to turning to alcohol and drugs to cope, saying, “I felt betrayed, friendless. […] I knew I had to make some changes; I had to become more relaxed about people and within myself.”

Defenders claimed that much of her behavior stemmed from the relentless pressure placed on her by Hollywood executives. She later reflected, “I was raised by the Golden Rule, but no one in this business has heard of it. At one point I found myself talking to God, yelling, ‘You forgot the movie industry!'”

Later, she suffered from chronic urticaria, a condition that caused painful welts and swelling across her body. “It would burn. It would itch like crazy. It’s something that could just make you go insane,” she recalled.

Treatments like steroids and antihistamines offered temporary relief but came with side effects. After eight months of suffering, she was desperate for a cure.

Her personal life was equally tumultuous. Her first marriage, to music publisher Allan Rider, lasted only two years. Her second, to actor Michael Brandon, ended after three years. A third marriage, to stuntman Henry Kingi, began with a Lake Tahoe ceremony where the couple recited a Paiute Indian blessing.

Despite their romantic beginnings, the marriage ended in divorce. Friends described their relationship as volatile, with one noting, “It was like living with a roller coaster.”

Emotionally and physically depleted and recognizing the need to rebuild, she turned inward and began focusing on personal growth. “I went back to reading the Bible,” she revealed. She credited her renewed faith with helping her find balance and overcome her fears.

Her journey toward wellness didn’t stop there. She adopted a holistic approach to health, inspired by teachings she had encountered as a teenager. After suffering from severe ulcers and gallbladder problems, she avoided surgery through alternative methods.

Then after years of focusing on her well-being, the former Hollywood star felt drawn back to Hollywood. In 2018, she made a return to acting, appearing in the film “Samson” and taking on a role in “Grey’s Anatomy.” Speaking about her comeback, she said, “I’m kind of being guided to come back. The heart wants what the heart wants, as they say.”

“😍😍Lindsay ahhhh eternal child in love, the most beautiful woman on the planet,” another person said of Lindsay’s timeless beauty.
