Default Is Joan Van Ark anorexic?!

I was searching for some new pics of Joan today and came across this! She looks absolutely anorexic! I hope that she is ok!

She looks like she's had way too much plastic surgery. Pull that skin back any further and it'll break! On the reunion, the men looked their ages, but Julie Harris was the only woman who looked her age and she looked just fine. The others looked as though they were trying to look like they did then. I'd say Donna Mills came the closest to succeeding.

Joan Van Ark has 2 things in common with my mother - their first name and they were both born in 1943 (JVA in June, my mom in September). But while my mom looks her age (and beautiful - no cosmetic surgery or botox of any kind) - JVA has had WAY too many facelifts and botox. She just looks scary. When are some of these women going to realize it's just not worth it???

She's always been on the slim side but she looks way too thin in these pictures.

JVA has always been thin, that is a fact. However, what I have seen of her lately, she is horrifically thin. I hope she is not anorexic, I also hope she is not suffering from any other health issues. I worked for this one attorney who was extremely thin. She had heart issues and took meds for the problem. She did not have much of an appetite because of the meds and also because she needed to exercise (doctor's orders). There can be many reasons why she is thin but I hope she is not starving herself. So sad. She has also had too much plastic surgery.

What a shame, all her natural beauty gone because she decided that she wanted to look younger. Honestly, she doesn't look younger, just scary.
