80s beauty who ruled primetime with NFL Hall of Famer husband in a hit family sitcom spotted on a rare stroll with pup in LA
This Canadian-born bombshell lit up screens in the 70s and 80s, earning an Emmy award and a Golden Globe nomination for her unforgettable roles as a trailblazing Olympic gold medalist, a daring pilot and a beloved sitcom mom. She held her own in blockbuster films as she starred alongside Hollywood greats Clint Eastwood and Gene Hackman. Alongside her real-life NFL Hall of Famer husband, she helped raise a precocious young boy who was adopted after the tragic loss of his parents in a hit 80s sitcom that became a staple of family TV. She showcased her beauty and assets in a Playboy spread devoted to her and took on a memorable role as Cherry Forever, a sex worker, in the hit sex comedy Porky's. Since the passing of her husband, a former defensive tackle turned actor, she has kept a low profile in Los Angeles. Can you guess who? It's Susan Clark from the sitcom Webster! This 82-year-old actress was spotted enjoying a sunny stroll through her Los Angeles neighborhood on Sunday. Accompanied by her small tan dog sporting a pink harness, the former screen star walked leisurely along a hedge-lined sidewalk. She kept things casual in a gray zip-up jacket, green pants, and black Hoka sneakers, topping off the look with a straw hat and black sunglasses for a touch of sun-smart style. The former actress later left her home in her blue Toyota Prius to go run errands in an all-black ensemble consisting of a sweater, pants and brown Oxford shoes with a tan purse tucked into her arm. Clark has stayed out of the spotlight since her career came to a crawl at the turn of the century, but her list of accolades reflects the substantial impact she left behind in Hollywood. After her walk concluded, she emerged from her house and got in her blue Prius to run some errands. She wore an all-black ensemble consisting of a sweater, pants, brown Oxford shoes and had a tan purse clutched in her arm Raised in Toronto, Canada, she started her career on stage before embarking on the big screen. Her first big roles came when she became employed by Universal Pictures in 1967. This new contract opened up a series of leading television and film roles, including Coogan's Bluff, where she starred alongside Clint Eastwood in 1968. Other big actors she played alongside with were Tell Them Willie Boy Is Here with Robert Redford in 1969, Valdez Is Coming with Burt Lancaster in 1971, Showdown with Dean Martin in 1973 and Night Moves with Gene Hackman in 1975. Clark earned her first Emmy in 1976 for her portrayal of multi-sport legend Babe Didrikson in the 1975 TV movie Babe. Didrikson won gold and silver medals in track and field at the 1932 Olympics before dominating women's golf with 10 LPGA major championships. She was nominated for another Emmy for Best Actress for her depiction of Amelia Earhart in a 1976 three-hour made-for-television biographical film. Not only was she a talented actress, but she was also a timeless beauty, which landed her a topless spread in a 1973 issue of Playboy. She later embraced a more provocative role as the mysterious sex worker Cherry Forever in the cult classic teen comedy Porky's. The actress met her husband Alex Karras, a legendary Detroit Lions defensive tackle and NFL Hall of Famer, when she co-starred alongside him in Babe, and married him five years later in 1980 – the same year they had their daughter Katie. Clark's biggest success would be a project she'd embark on beside her husband, who played her on-screen husband in the hit 80s sitcom Webster. The show ran from 1983 to 1989 and followed a newly adopted black boy adjusting to life with his white godfather, a former NFL star, played by Karras, and his loving socialite wife, played by Clark, in their Chicago home. This show Clark's ticket to a Golden Globe nomination for Best Actress in a Television Series or Comedy in 1985. When the show came to an end in 1989, Clark would try her hand at a few other TV films such as Murder, She Wrote (1991), Butterbox Babies (1995) and finally the series Emily of New Moon (1998-99). Both Clark and Karras would step back from Hollywood at the turn of the century and live out their retirement in Los Angeles until his death in 2012 from kidney failure.

Logies 2025: Home and Away's Lynne McGranger wins gold as Fisk dominates Australia's TV awards
The Home and Away actor Lynne McGranger has won the Gold Logie award for most popular personality on Australian television as she ends her record 32-year run playing the much-loved matriarch Irene Roberts. McGranger is the longest-serving female actor in any Australian drama, having played Irene for nearly 33 years. She announced her departure in February and her final episode will air mid-August. 'I am thrilled and honoured. This is going to be pride of place next to my 1974 Wagga Wagga drama festival best actress,' she said on Sunday night, to laughter. She thanked Home and Away's writers and crew, saying: 'Yeah, it is a soap. But it gives Australian actors and crew so much work. And we are so proud of it. Thirty-eight years the bloody thing has been going for, it just won't die.' The 72-year-old paid tribute to her almost all-female competition – Muster Dogs host Lisa Millar, A Current Affair's Ally Langdon, The Voice host Sonia Kruger, I'm A Celebrity … Get Me Out Of Here! host Julia Morris and MasterChef Australia judge Poh Ling Yeow and Lego Masters host Hamish Blake – as 'beautiful, fierce women of all ages. And I am the oldest!' As the only male nominee, two-time winner Blake had actively campaigned against himself this year, joking to the media: 'It would not be a great look if I won, so figure out your favourite lady, and get right behind her.' McGranger also won best lead actress in a drama for her performance in Home and Away, seeing off competition from Apple Cider Vinegar actor Kaitlyn Dever and Territory star Anna Torv. The ABC comedy Fisk was the big winner on Sunday, taking home best scripted comedy, best lead actress in a comedy for Kitty Flanagan for the second year in a row, best lead actor in a comedy for Aaron Chen, best supporting actress for Julia Zemiro and best supporting actor for Glenn Butcher. Flanagan thanked both ABC and Netflix 'for the viewing bump' and said she was particularly pleased that families watched Fisk, a comedy set in a suburban law firm. 'It makes me so happy to know we accidentally made a family show,' she said. 'We didn't mean to … the fact they appreciate a middle-aged lady in a baggy suit who mumbles, I have hope for the future.' The ABC had a strong night overall, with detective show Return to Paradise winning best drama, Australian Story winning best current affairs, Muster Dogs: Collies & Kelpies winning best structured reality program, Four Corners' Betrayal of Trust winning best news coverage or public affairs report, and Bluey winning the children's program category for a record fourth time. Guy Montgomery, the host of Guy Montgomery's Guy Mont Spelling Bee on ABC, also won the Graham Kennedy award for most popular new talent. The New Zealander gave a bullish speech, telling Australia: 'Suck it, we have one up on your country this time!' The actor and comedian Magda Szubanski was inducted into the Logie Hall of Fame months after she revealed she had been diagnosed with cancer, with the likes of film-maker George Miller, Kath and Kim's Gina Riley, Richard E Grant and the politician Penny Wong all paying tribute. The US comedy actor Melissa McCarthy called her 'one of the funniest humans, one of the smartest humans'. Szubanski was unable to attend the ceremony, but gave an emotional pre-taped speech. 'Let's just get this out of the way – I am not being awarded this honour because I have got the cancer. I am getting this because of 40 years of hard work – lobbying, bribing, threatening, whatever it took,' she joked. 'Finally it has all paid off.' Sign up for Guardian Australia's breaking news email She thanked the public for their messages of support. 'The love and support I have felt, like a tsunami, from the Australian public has been overwhelming and I have to tell you, it really helps … when I go online and I look at those messages, every time my heart lifts and I feel that much stronger to deal with the cancer.' Streaming platforms dominated the best drama nominees, but failed to win on the night. Netflix won just one award: best miniseries for Apple Cider Vinegar, its drama about the Australian fraudster Belle Gibson. Though Apple Cider Vinegar and Netflix's Territory dominated the drama categories, neither won. Instead, Fisk won the supporting categories, McGranger won best lead actress, and Sam Neill won best lead actor for his role in season two of The Twelve. The former tennis player turned commentator Jelena Dokic gave an emotional speech while accepting the Logie for her documentary Unbreakable: The Jelena Dokic Story, about surviving the physical and mental abuse dealt by her father, who was also once her coach. 'To every kid and person out there, I will say, to every single girl and woman out there, never allow anyone to take your worth or happiness or smile away. Believe in your goals and dreams,' she said. The Logies have historically been an unusual awards event, with a mix of popularly voted awards – which celebrities have always actively campaigned to win – and peer-voted awards. The system has been overhauled so that the 'best' categories – formerly called 'most outstanding' – are determined by a combined score, 50% of which is peer assessment and audience data supplied by the broadcasters and 50% of which is by popular vote. The Gold Logie, the Bert Newton award for most popular presenter, the Graham Kennedy award for most popular new talent and the new Ray Martin award for most popular news or public affairs reporter, remain determined entirely by popular vote. Gold Logie for most popular personality: Lynne McGranger, Home and Away, Seven Network Bert Newton award for most popular presenter: Todd Woodbridge, Nine Network Graham Kennedy award for most popular new talent: Guy Montgomery, ABC Ray Martin award for most popular news or public affairs presenter: Ally Langdon, A Current Affair, Nine Network Best lead actor in a drama: Sam Neill, The Twelve, Binge/Foxtel Best lead actress in a drama: Lynne McGranger, Home and Away, Seven Network Best lead actor in a comedy: Aaron Chen, Fisk, ABC Best lead actress in a comedy: Kitty Flanagan, Fisk, ABC Best supporting actor: Glenn Butcher, Fisk, ABC Best supporting actress: Julia Zemiro, Fisk, ABC Best drama program: Return to Paradise, ABC Best miniseries or telemovie: Apple Cider Vinegar, Netflix Best entertainment program: The Voice, Seven Network Best scripted comedy program: Fisk, ABC Best current affairs program: Australian Story, ABC Best comedy entertainment program: Have You Been Paying Attention?, Network 10 Best competition reality program: Lego Masters Australia, Nine Network Best structured reality program: Muster Dogs: Collies & Kelpies, ABC Best lifestyle program: Travel Guides, Nine Network Best news coverage or public affairs report: Betrayal of Trust, Four Corners, ABC Best factual or documentary program: Unbreakable: The Jelena Dokic Story, Nine Network Best sports coverage: The Olympic Games Paris 2024, Nine Network Best children's program: Bluey, ABC
