A new campaign, a first-time shoot, and a quiet history of pushing through pain — this “Holidaze” alum is showing what strength looks like behind the scenes and in front of the lens.
Jennie Garth, best known for her role on “Beverly Hills, 90210,” revealed her first-ever underwear photoshoot, sparking a buzz. The actress made the announcement through a June 5, 2025, Instagram post, highlighting her pride in embracing her body and stage in life.
“I never thought I’d be doing my first underwear shoot at 53… but here we are! And I’ve never felt more confident, or comfortable in my skin,” she wrote.
Garth partnered with ThirdLove for the shoot, modeling items from the company’s TempSync™ collection. The product line claims to be the first temperature-regulating series of bras and underwear made with natural volcanic minerals.
Garth shared that the line has become her “go-to from hot flashes to long travel days and everything in between.” She ended her caption with gratitude for the brand, stating, “Thank you @thirdlove for helping me feel strong, sexy, and supported—exactly as I am.”
In one image, Garth is shown in a black bra and underwear set, partially covered with a cream-colored cardigan as she gazes away from the camera. Another frame captures her in a beige matching set, smiling while wearing a light blue robe draped over her shoulders.
A third image shows her in mid-movement, putting on a pair of denim jeans over her underwear while wearing a yellow shirt. In yet another photo, she poses confidently in a pale blue set, her expression calm as she looks off into the distance.
Her post quickly drew attention, with many Instagram followers praising her appearance and confidence. One person wrote, “A natural Beauty 😍 love you Jennie ❤️[sic],” while another added, “🔥 Girl you do the work in the gym and it is such an inspiration for us 50+ ladies [sic]!”
Some comments focused on admiration for her dedication to fitness. “Jennie!🔥 send me your workouts and meal plan. I’m jealous [sic] 👏,” one individual remarked.
Support continued with compliments on her youthful look and self-care. One netizen shared, “Wow! Incredible! I can’t believe it’s you! You’re a sexy woman! You look 40 years old, not 53! Underwear suits you and looks good on you! Well done, good job and keep up the good work!”
Another person expressed nostalgic admiration by writing, “The years will not pass by you!!! You will always be the queen!! Kelly forever.” A different supporter commented, “Good work!! Power to you! You chose you to keep yourself healthy!”
While Garth’s latest campaign may showcase her confidence, strength, and wellness at 53, her journey to this moment hasn’t been without challenges — particularly in terms of her health.
In a personal essay published in September 2024, Garth opened up about living with chronic joint pain. She described a history of discomfort in her hips, sharing that the clicking sounds when lifting her legs had been ongoing for years. Initially, she attributed the pain to a lifetime of physical activity, including horseback riding and dancing during her youth.
However, the pain gradually worsened, limiting her mobility to the point where walking her dogs became difficult. Garth said she suspected arthritis, especially given her family history. “Both my parents and sisters have this disease,” she revealed, adding that she had a strong feeling it was eventually going to affect her too.
Her suspicions were confirmed through medical scans. “My doctor confirmed those suspicions via an X-ray and an MRI: I had osteoarthritis in my thumbs, knees, and hips—all the joints that you don’t want to stop moving.” She recalled the moment clearly, saying her doctor told her gently, “I can see some arthritis coming.”
The diagnosis came when she was in her mid-40s. Garth admitted that she felt “old and confused” by the news, acknowledging how serious and progressive the condition can be. Still, she remained committed to staying active, expressing a desire to keep moving despite the discomfort.
From managing the realities of osteoarthritis to stepping into new roles with confidence, Jennie Garth continues to navigate aging on her own terms. Her openness about both her challenges and triumphs offers a clear message: strength and self-acceptance are not defined by age but by resilience and self-awareness.
