Bo Derek Talks About Her New, Less Creepy Lover

Published on October 24, 2009 at 4:15 PM

OK, so the story of the Dereks has always been a huge media draw. Bo was 16 when she met her husband 30 years ago, John. He was 46 at the time. They began a creepy, pedo-like affair in Greece, lived in Germany until she was 18, moved to the U.S. once again, and married when she was 20.

The marriage lasted 22 years, and he eventually died of heart failure at the age of 72. It would be an incredibly romantic story if the then-married middle-age man had not gotten it on with a teenager, making the whole thing sound more like a Dateline program.

But the now 53-year old natural beauty has begun dating someone more age appropriate, and it experiencing the kind of love she has always dreamed of.

Meeting during the Oscars, Bo has fallen head over heels for John Corbett. the 48-year-old Sex and the City actor, who once played Carrie Bradshaws’ carpenter fiance, Adrian.

“I was going to the Oscars with a girlfriend and heard from a friend that John was also going and wanted to escort me,” she told The Daily Mail.

“I thought it would be fun to show my girlfriend the Hollywood experience if we went with someone like John, so I said yes. He knocked on my hotel door and it was love at first sight. I was crazy about him from that moment. He’s charming and funny – so different from my husband. And he’s younger than me.”

Well, we at Hot Momma salute you, Bo, for finally settling on a relationship that doesn’t make us cringe. Good luck to you both.
