This 80s Hollywood beauty was struggling off-screen. This is her today at 66 years old


Heather Thomas, 66, known for her role as Jody Banks in the TV series “The Fall Guy,” became a household name. The show’s opening credits, featuring Thomas in a bikini, cemented her status as a sex symbol, a label she had mixed feelings about.

Career and Personal Life

Her relationship with Rosenthal ended the same year “The Fall Guy” concluded in 1986. Thomas continued to act in smaller roles, including appearances in “Cyclone” and “Red Blooded American Girl.”

However, her career was disrupted again in 1993 when a deranged fan appeared at her home with a screenplay. This incident prompted her to take out a restraining order and describe the individual as “disturbed.”


Life After Acting

By 1998, after obtaining 45 restraining orders and facing diminishing acting opportunities, Thomas decided to retire from acting.

She shifted her focus to family life, particularly parenting her stepdaughters, Kristina and Shauna, from her marriage to attorney Harry Brittenham. The couple also welcomed a daughter, India Rose, in 2000.

New Ventures

Though she stepped away from acting, Thomas remained connected to the entertainment industry through writing. She sold the rights to several scripts and screenplays and published a satirical Hollywood novel titled “Trophies.” In 2020, she delighted “The Fall Guy” fans by reuniting virtually with former co-stars Lee Majors and Doug Barr.

Political Activism

In recent years, Thomas has channeled her energies into political activism. She uses her home as a venue for liberal Democrats to engage with affluent potential donors.

Heather Thomas’s journey is a testament to her resilience and adaptability. She navigated the turbulent waters of fame while finding new ways to contribute to the causes she believes in.
