“I’m 73 and I think I’m the only one in my generation and maybe before who has been a single woman all her life,” she said.

“I don’t think it would have been a good idea for me to have married, and I’m really glad I didn’t, and I’m sure they’re happy about it, too.”

In 2021, she told Lisa Kudrow she never married because of her own personal freedom. “I didn’t want to give up my independence,” she said.

“I don’t remember anyone calling me, going, ‘This is so-and-so. I’d like to take you out.’ They don’t happen. Of course not.”

“I didn’t even ask for her. He came to me and said, ‘I think you need this dog.’ I was like, ‘OK, I guess?’ Of course, now I just love her. Dogs are irresistible. They’re just idiots. Reggie is a big jerk, and she’s a great jerk, and she’s hilarious,” she said.
