The Hollywood actress is best known for her roles in the soap opera Dallas and Flamingo Road.
She also played mom to Matthew Perry's Chandler Bing characterin the hit sitcom, Friends.
Morgan rocked a black graphic t-shirt and leggings as she carried her shopping and was worlds away from her glamour looks she was most known for.
Born Patsy Ann McClenny, she was born on February 3, 1950.
Morgan starred in many films and TV shows including Flamingo Road, Dallas, Falcon Crest, Murphy Brown, for which she was nominated for an Emmy, and The Seduction.
She was nominated for a Golden Globe award for her work on the short lived Flamingo Road.
Morgan also guest starred on hit shows including Friends, Roseanne, and Two and a Half Men.
Between the years 1967 and 1973, she was married to American inventor Jack Calmes.
She met movie producer, Mark Seiler, in 1987 and they remained together until his death in 2023.
Known for her stunning looks and toned body, Morgan recently opened up on the aging process.
"Y"ou see a lot of bad aging in Hollywood and I have always tried to live real clean. So that helps. I did no drinking, smoking and no drugs," she told the Daily Mail in 2023.
"When you are younger you just do it because you think it is a good idea. But when you're older you see other people and say I am glad I didn't do that. A lot of that hard partying ages you a lot. I am just so boring."
Morgan aded: 'It is all about a good diet too. I grew up in Texas, so if I kept eating the way I did with everything deep fat fried it would be a whole other story. Part of it is just educating yourself on nutrition and different therapies.'

'Wednesday season three. It's official... we shall return.' One fan wrote in the comments section: 'And for many more seasons.'; 'I love this because then they can start filming soon and it won't be such a long pause between seasons! Or that's the hope!' The second series was announced in January 2023 - but by the time it comes out later this year, it will have been more than two years in the making. Other users wrote, 'Season three? Hold on!', and, 'I'm excited about this.' Someone else added: 'I'll be gripping the sheets in agony waiting but please... don't let us wait three years again.' Another commenter wrote: 'Shut up.

Scream queen Jenna, who rose to fame in slashers Scream, X and Scream VI, was embroiled in controversy in recent months for comments she made during a podcast interview. She said she spent her time on the show 'changing lines' and 'had to put my foot down' because 'everything I had to play did not make sense for the character'. Jenna said she felt terrible about this and never meant it that way, simply meaning to say she improvised a lot and was permitted to. Tim sympathised with her, feeling the comments had been interpreted in a way she had not meant. But the pair revealed that after these events, Jenna is now a producer on the show. Co-creator Alfred Gough - who made the show with Miles Millar - said this made sense, as she is already so involved in every part of the show, as well as giving notes on the script, in a way he praised. Wednesday's first series pulled in a whopping 252million viewers globally, making it Netflix's biggest English-language series of all time.

Netflix chief content officer Bela Bajaria, meanwhile, added: 'There's a lot to explore in the Addams Family.' New cast member Joanna Lumley previously told Netflix news site Tudum: 'There's always something thrilling about working for Tim Burton. 'His whole mind takes him to a different world, and the world that they've created here for Wednesday and Nevermore and the family is just intoxicating. 'It's wonderful. I get to wear many, many huge wigs, one on top of the other — and lots of quite constraining clothes, so I love it.' It comes after all Netflix fans had the same complaint as the streaming giant confirmed the release date of the much-anticipated second series of Wednesday. Bosses finally shared a major update with fans earlier this month after they patiently waited for the long-awaited date new episodes will drop. But in a major shakeup, Netflix revealed the series will be split into two parts.

While fans flooded their replies with excited comments, they were united on their take on the decision to split the release of the new episodes into two parts. One viewer said: 'Why must you break all the seasons in parts, Netflix? WHY?' A second chimed in: 'Interesting they're splitting the season. Wonder if this signals a tonal shift or just Netflix maximizing engagement?' 'Part 1 part 3 part 2 … Yall goofy just release the show together,' said a third. While a fourth penned: 'Season X part 1... that's stupid for any show you wait more than a year. Stop splitting seasons.' Netflix have confirmed part two will be available to stream on September 3. Wednesday is available to stream exclusively on Netflix.

'Acapulco' fourth and final season has a message about Mexico, star Eugenio Derbez says
In the Apple TV+ show 'Acapulco,' Máximo Gallardo was first introduced to viewers as the symbol of the American dream — a young, working-class hotel worker in Mexico who ultimately becomes a multimillionaire with a big mansion in Malibu, California. But Eugenio Derbez — star and executive producer of the bilingual hit series — wants viewers to remember Máximo in the show's fourth and final season as a dreamer who also represents the moxie and creativity of hardworking Mexicans. 'I want 'Acapulco' to be remembered as a vibrant, bilingual series that celebrated Mexican culture with warmth, humor, and authenticity,' Derbez said via email in an interview with NBC News. 'For American audiences, I hope it reshapes perceptions: that Mexico is more than headlines — it's rich in identity, beauty, resilience, and heart.' 'He's not modeled after one real figure,' Derbez said about Máximo, adding that his character's ambition and business instincts resonate with many self-made entrepreneurs in Mexico — people who work tirelessly to build something lasting.' Viewers first met Máximo in season one as he started to tell the story of himself as a young, energetic pool boy at the glamorous resort of Las Colinas in Acapulco, Mexico. (The young Máximo is played by Enrique Arrizón). Now in season four, Máximo is poised to reopen the hotel as its new owner, and restore the legacy that made Acapulco an international destination for the rich and famous. Hollywood legends Rita Hayworth, Errol Flynn and Orson Welles first made Acapulco popular for Americans in the 1940s. Elvis Presley and even the Flintstones expanded that Riviera fame in the 1960s. It wasn't just Americans who put Acapulco on the map — but Mexican icons such as comedic genius Cantinflas and Grammy-winning pop singer Luis Miguel also made the city a household name for Spanish speakers all over the world. Off screen, Máximo can mirror the tenacity and ambition of Derbez, who established himself as a one-man-show — writing, producing, directing and acting — in multiple series for Mexican television before moving to Hollywood. In the U.S., Derbez transitioned successfully to the big screen, starring in 2011 with Adam Sandler, Katie Holmes and Al Pacino in the comedy 'Jack and Jill.' In 2012, he was featured with Eva Mendes, Matthew Modine and Patricia Arquette in 'Girl in Progress.' But his big break happened in 2013 with 'Instructions Not Included,' in which Derbez demonstrated some of that Máximo moxie: The comedy about a Mexican playboy forced to raise his small daughter that he wrote, produced, directed and starred in became the highest Spanish-language box office hit of all time—grossing over $100 million worldwide. Since then, Derbez has had other successes with 'How to Be a Latin Lover' and 'Overboard.' And in 2021, he played a music teacher in 'CODA,' which won the Oscar for best picture. In 2023, Derbez challenged viewers with another heartfelt story about Mexico. He produced and starred in the Spanish-language comedy-drama movie 'Radical.' The film was inspired by a 12-year-old Mexican girl who was featured on the cover of Wired magazine in 2013 as 'The Next Steve Jobs.' Now, with 'Acapulco' kicking off its last season Wednesday, Derbez is looking for other ways to tell authentic dreamer stories. 'Going forward, I'd love to explore more stories from Mexico—and even stories from other Latin American countries that deserve global representation,' he said. Derbez is proud of 'Acapulco' because it represents Mexican culture 'without stereotypes.' And while Hollywood has made progress telling diverse stories, he calls on the industry for more work to be done. 'I think we need to go beyond token gestures. Putting a Latino actor in a supporting role doesn't automatically make a project inclusive,' he said. 'True inclusion begins when we tell stories about Latinos — stories that are authentic, layered, and compelling. Stories that don't just resonate with Latino audiences, but with the entire world.' And this, Derbez says, is what viewers can see in 'Acapulco.' 'It's not a show for Latinos—it's a show where Latinos are at the center, but the themes — love, ambition, family, failure — are universal,' he said. 'We just happen to be speaking Spanglish and wearing guayaberas.'
