Mel Harris was an icon of the '80s thanks to her role as Hope Steadman on the beloved TV series Thirtysomething, and she's still an absolute stunner at 69.
Harris rose to fame in the role of Steadman alongside actors Ken Olin, Polly Draper, Peter Horton, Patricia Wettig, Melanie Mayron, and Timothy Busfield in the ensemble show, which ran from 1987 to 1991 on ABC. She went on to appear in a variety of made-for-TV movies and starred on the sitcomSomething So Right for two years. More recently, she appeared on the Hulu series Shut Eye and the Bravo series Imposters. But we're partial to her presence on social media, where Harris, who is a natural stunner with gray hair, shares fun content that includes baking pies and making wreaths on her upstate New York farm.

“I’ve been married six times,” Harris shared back in 2017 in a clip from Oprah: Where Are They Now?PEOPLE reported. “It is what I am. Sometimes things work out, sometimes they don’t. Out of those, I have two beautiful, wonderful children.”
While she had a few bumps in the road, the actress has tremendous gratitude for what she's been through.
“Clearly, I believe in marriage because I’ve kept trying it,” she says. “I’m married to a wonderful guy. I plan to be married to him forever and ever. I have a great life. I have lovely children. It has absolutely been the best — I’m going to cry — and the most rewarding thing I’ve done in my life. And the best blessing that anyone has ever given to me.”
The Potential For a Thirtysomething Reboot
Earlier this year, Harris took to social media to share some exciting news about a potential Thirtysomething reboot. While she didn't say anything too specific, Harris said there had been "significant progress towards a sequel to Thirtysomething and the streaming.”

While most of us know her as an actress, a whole new generation is following Harris for her Instagram content. Of course, one topic that's frequently brought up is her stunning gray hair.
"My gray is coming in nicely and I think I'll be happy with it when it's all in. But it's a hard balance," Harris told Next Avenue earlier this year. "I got a lot of comments on it. I mean, a lot of comments. A lot of people said, 'You don't need to ask other people for permission.' I want to reply, 'Clearly, you don't know me' (laughs). If the sequel goes and they want my hair to be more Hope's color, then we'll discuss that – you can have a wig or do temporary dyes. I think it would be great if one of the women were gray."
