It's been more than four decades since Stefanie Powers captivated television audiences as glamorous amateur detective Jennifer Hart in the hit series Hart to Hart, but the actress remains every bit as stylish today.

The Hollywood star celebrates her 84th birthday on Monday, November 2 2026, and recent photographs reveal that she has retained her signature red hair and elegant sense of style.

Stefanie recently stepped out at the Newport Beach Film Festival in California, where she posed for photographs alongside fellow actress Joanna Cassidy.

The television icon, who starred opposite Robert Wagner in the beloved '80s detective series, has enjoyed a remarkable career spanning more than six decades and continues to make appearances at Hollywood events.

And while she has largely stepped away from the spotlight in recent years, Stefanie remains close to her former onscreen husband, now 96.

Stefanie and Robert became household names playing wealthy married couple Jennifer and Jonathan Hart in the ABC series, which ran for five seasons from 1979 to 1984.

The glamorous pair traveled the world solving mysteries together, with their undeniable chemistry making them one of television's most beloved couples.

Their friendship has continued long after the cameras stopped rolling, and in a recent interview with People, Stefanie revealed that the two remain in regular contact.

"He's like my brother. He's a tremendous part of my life, and I love him dearly," she said.

Stefanie also reflected on their onscreen chemistry, explaining that their close friendship didn't necessarily guarantee they would work so well together.

The pair reunited for eight Hart to Hart television movies between 1993 and 1996, much to the delight of their devoted fans.

Long before finding fame as Jennifer Hart, Stefanie appeared in a string of Hollywood productions, including The Girl from U.N.C.L.E., The Interns and Herbie Rides Again.

Away from acting, she has dedicated much of her life to wildlife conservation, a passion inspired by her late partner, Hollywood legend William Holden, who died in 1981.

Stefanie founded the William Holden Wildlife Foundation in his memory and has spent decades working to protect endangered animals and their habitats.

Her tireless efforts have earned her recognition in the entertainment industry, and she is set to receive the Ms. Wonderful 2026 honor from The Thalians in December.
