“Okay, so my thing on that — people would say, ‘Are you dating?’ and I’d say, ‘Well I don’t date much anymore because I used to date, and you’d look across the table at the guy and you’d think, ‘Okay, I wonder if we’re gonna end up in bed together,’ and now I look across the table and I just think: ‘When am I gonna have to change this guy’s diapers?’” she joked. “It’s just not that fun anymore.”

Instead of dipping her toes into the dating pool, Hatcher is learning French using Duolingo and spending time with her cat, Fig.

While people are apparently interested in her dating life, Hatcher says she is simply grateful for her age and health.

“There’s only one way to feel about aging and that’s grateful,” she said. “Every day above ground is a gift, so I do look at it with a lot of gratitude.”

“I’m so tongue-tied about it because it’s that balance of you want to just continue to be the best you can every day, but also there’s a lot of acceptance that comes with it, and that is just grace,” she continued. “I feel like when we’re young, we’re so hard on ourselves, and I feel like the expectation of it to be something other than what it is is lessons, and it’s really nice.”
