In an interview with Fox & Friends in January, Somers was asked about the huge response she got after sharing her birthday picture that she captioned: ‘Here I am, 73 in my birthday suit.’
‘It got 168 million hits. But I wasn’t naked,’ she recalled before describing the scenario.
‘I was on the property with [my husband] Alan [Hamel] and we’re walking. I went, wow, this grass is the same color as my hair. I leaned down so that my hair would look like it was part of the grass.’
She added, ‘I dropped my top — I was all covered. I didn’t think it was a controversial picture. But it became controversial. And then I thought, ‘Well, that’s not bad.’ Because I looked like I was naked, but I wasn’t.’

Some chastised her over the age factor and questioned her motives. But, for the most part, her fans wished her a happy birthday and raved over her glowing smile and age-defying looks.
In hindsight of the controversy, Somers had a message to both women and men, in regards to the picture: ‘It ain’t over. It’s how you take care of yourself going forward.’
She added, ‘We are going to live longer now. There is life extension whether you like it or not. But no one’s really thinking about quality… I’ve been putting quality back.’
