Sharon Lawrence has fans doing a double take after a new photo surfaced showing the NYPD Blue actress looking radiant and virtually unchanged from her TV days. The 64-year-old star appeared in a new behind-the-scenes group selfie shared on Instagram alongside fellow Hallmark Channel actors Sarah Drew, Erin Cahill, Jonathan Bennett, Eliza Hayes Maher, and Stacey Farber. The cast is teaming up for the network’s Countdown to Christmas special, but it was Sharon’s timeless glow that quickly became the focus.
Wearing a silky blouse printed with gold chain motifs, Sharon smiled brightly at the camera with softly styled blonde waves and flawless, glowing skin. Her natural makeup look, defined lashes, rosy cheeks, and a mauve-pink lip, accentuated her youthful appearance.

"I was shooting in Calgary, where we went for COVID testing three times a week. I received a text from Larry Powell and it couldn’t be more perfect coming from him. He is the origin of this beautiful work that will last forever, but of the tribe that came together to make it. This series felt so important to me."

"Acting is about evolution and transformation. If you stay rigid in your expectations and even in your needs, you are limiting yourself. It is important to realize that you are a good fit for those realities," she added.
