Sophia Loren grew up sharing a bedroom with eight people in extreme poverty — a child nobody called beautiful, who survived war and abandonment and somehow became the woman the entire world could not stop looking at for seven decades.
At 91 she still starts every single day with the same disciplined routine that has kept her strong and healthy — and what she said about aging, beauty and the secret to still being here and still being herself will make every woman who has ever been told her best days are behind her want to stand up and argue. Some women age. Sophia Loren simply keeps becoming more of herself.
