But after a whopping 80 years in Hollywood, it makes you wonder how she still stays so fit at her age (she turned 90 in 2025). But Dame Julie Andrews isn't shy about sharing what she does to stay active as she has aged, giving older women the blueprint for the perfect morning workout.

Andrews' workout routine may have had some slight tweaks as she got older, but it's a surefire way to get into exercising in your 50s and beyond. 

Living a healthy lifestyle is par for the course for Julie Andrews. And it's not surprising, especially after she revealed that her parents who instilled the importance of health in her and her siblings. Aside from developing a workout routine from a young age, the Oscar winner is also a stickler for eating clean as often as possible. "I have good eating habits which I learned as a child. We had lots of salads, fresh vegetables and meat ...  and we ate fruit instead of puddings for dessert," Andrews shared in an exclusive article with Lydia Lane back in 1963.

And her decision to stick to what her parents taught her has certainly paid off. She maintains healthy eating habits well into adulthood, which Andrews has credited for helping keep her active. "I have a very high protein diet ... I find that I'm much more energetic when I keep to it," the seven-time Golden Globe winner revealed in a 1973 article for Beauty Plus Magazine. And it seems her healthy lifestyle has also done wonders for Andrews' appearance, as she's one of the celebs confronting aging with confidence.
