Barbara Bach, known for her iconic role as Triple X in the James Bond film “The Spy Who Loved Me,” has always been a strong and independent woman. But she didn’t need a spy to save her. Instead, she embarked on a journey to find her true love, her knight in shining armor – rocker husband, Sir Richard Starkey, better known as Ringo Starr.
Now at 75 years old, Bach has achieved great success in her career as an actor and model. Her role in “The Spy Who Loved Me” catapulted her to stardom. In the film, she portrayed the captivating love interest and potential adversary to the womanizing secret agent, James Bond. Bach wasn’t afraid to speak her mind about the character, referring to Bond as a “chauvinist pig who uses girls to shield him against bullets.” Roger Moore, who played Bond, shared her sentiment and confessed to being a male chauvinist pig himself. He had always tried to break free from the stereotypes of women in the media.
