Sean Connery to eat non-stop on 80th birthday
August 25th, 2010 - 10:55 pm ICT by IANSLos Angeles, Aug 25 (IANS) “James Bond” star Sean Connery will celebrate his 80th birthday by eating “non-stop” to put on some weight which he lost after a recent surgery.
The Hollywood legend has plans to spend his birthday Wednesday with his wife Micheline and other loved ones at his home in the Bahamas, reports imdb.com.
“I’m swimming every day and I’m even trying to get the golf swing working again - but that might take a little bit longer. During the summer, I wasn’t in pain, but I wasn’t feeling great.
“I came to the Edinburgh Film Festival in June then when I left for the south of France, I realised I’d lost a bit of weight and needed to change my regime. I’ve done that and the last few days have been pretty special with the family here. We’ve eaten non-stop and it has been a great celebration,” said Connery.
He has been lying low in recent months after undergoing surgery on his shoulder, but says he will be fine soon.
