Susan Lucci is usually seen at fancy events in stunning dresses, so fans are used to her dressed up.
But this week, the “All My Children” star shared a photo in a casual outfit, which got a lot of attention from her followers! Susan posted a picture from the Lindt Chocolate Factory in Zurich, Switzerland, wearing skinny jeans, a fitted jacket, and white sneakers.
She ended the runway show in style, walking to the song “I’m Every Woman” by Whitney Houston while wearing a stunning green off-the-shoulder gown.
Afterwards, she shared her excitement on social media, saying: “Good morning! I’m at Good Day NY wearing a fabulous Dennis Basso polka dot outfit! I love him and feel so honored to be the finale of his beautiful Spring/Summer 2025 Fashion Week show in New York yesterday!”
Susan was the perfect fit for the show, which celebrated beauty at every age. At 77, she looks amazing as always and recently shared her beauty secret with HELLO! magazine while attending the City of Hope Awards in New York, where she was honored for her charity work.
She revealed that her beauty routine is actually very simple—and the best part? It’s almost free!
Susan shared her routine: “I start my day with coffee and then drink hot water with lemon throughout the day! I mostly follow a Mediterranean diet—lots of fresh fruits, vegetables, and fish! I also do Pilates almost every morning.”
She’s feeling better than ever now, after going through a tough time in recent years. In 2022, she began having shortness of breath and chest and jaw pain, but even with her health history, she hesitated to see a doctor at first.
In an interview with People, Susan said, “I couldn’t believe it. After telling women for years to not be afraid to call the doctor and take care of themselves, I ended up not following my own advice.”
Doctors found that she had an 80% blockage in one of her arteries due to cholesterol and had to put another stent in her heart to clear the blockage after she was rushed to the hospital.
In early March, she told People, “I’m doing really well. I always keep track of how I’m feeling,” and added that her recovery is “so far, so good.”
‘Families don’t have to match’ – Black couple share their journey to adopting three white children
Sadie and Jarvis Sampson tried everything for years to get pregnant, and eventually they accepted that they would only ever be aunt and uncle. Then, one day, they received a text that completely turned their world upside down.
Since getting married in January 2018, the pair has been trying to get pregnant, so when that didn’t work out naturally, they tried everything else.
The Houston mother told Love What Matters, “Ovulation tests, prenatal vitamins, cycle tracking apps, fertility monitors.”
“We didn’t even try our luck at following the unsolicited counsel of strangers, friends, and family. We tried, prayed, and waited for fourteen months. Month after Month. pregnancy test negative following negative test. It appeared like we would require help getting pregnant. We even went so far as to discuss it with medical professionals.
The couple seemed to get little assistance from the doctors. Sadie was advised by everyone that she would get pregnant if she reduced weight. Since she had no other options, she underwent gastric surgery and shed 28 pounds.’
“She informed me that since she was unable to give me the fertility medication, she would refer me to a fertility specialist if I wasn’t pregnant within six months,” Sadie recalled. I was ecstatic to hear that. We finally received a response other than “no”! We were ecstatic to hear “not right now.”
Unfortunately, though, the couple felt as though they had begun over after Sadie lost the weight and they were unable to conceive.
Connecting the Dots – Adoption Puzzle Fundraising EventAs everyone is aware, we received a call regarding our little two weeks ago.

Sadie said, “I had always felt like I was meant to be a mother.” “I was still not pregnant even though my surgeon had spent a long time to warn me about how fertile I would be following surgery. Thus, we gave up. We came to the realization that our only destiny was to be our nieces’ aunts and uncles and our goddaughters’ godparents.
The couple had just come to the painful conclusion that they would not be able to conceive when Sadie’s friend texted her to ask if they would be willing to foster a child that a couple she knew was thinking about for themselves.
At first, the couple was apprehensive since they had been instructed by a caseworker to look after the child while the mother sought therapy. The couple was concerned that they would grow overly devoted to the child. But soon after, the narrative was altered.
The caseworker stated, “The birth mother decided she would prefer you guys adopt the child instead.”
“Holy crap!!” was the first thing Sadie uttered out loud when she learned she was expecting a child.
“Overnight, we went from not having any kids to possibly fostering one to, ‘You guys are parents!’” Still in shock, I listened to the caseworker as she spoke. After hanging up, I dialed my spouse! “Baby!” They desire that we adopt the child! They want us to have kids,” I cried out. Hold on! Really? He exclaimed, “I assumed they just wanted us to foster him.” “Nope!” “They want us to be his parents,” I remarked.
Over the weekend, the couple not only processed the surprising news but also braced themselves in case the mother had second thoughts.
On Monday, the mother not only expressed her desire for them to adopt the child, but also stated that she was prepared to sign the adoption papers independently.
At 33 weeks, their son had been born—seven weeks ahead of schedule. His weight was 4 lbs. 5 oz. Sadie writes, “He fit in one of my husband’s hands.”
Sadie said, “He was so small, swaddled in a white blanket with stripes of pink and blue.” He was early, therefore he couldn’t eat on his own, thus an NG tube was coming out of his nose. But my goodness, was he adorable!
The couple was urged to create a registry after they announced their announcement on social media. In just three days, 55 of the 72 goods they had advertised had been purchased.
Following the adoption of Ezra Lee, which was completed in October 2020, the couple had the cutest family portraits shot, sporting t-shirts that said, “Families don’t have to match.”
Through embryo donation, Sadie and Jarvis became parents to twin twins, Destinee and Journey, in 2021. The black couple, adhering to their family credo, “Families don’t have to match,” gave birth to three white children: two girls and one boy.
There is just one reaction for anyone who judges this lovely family: love is the strongest foundation there is.
