She was considered the most beautiful woman in Hollywood

Ali MacGraw, once the epitome of Hollywood beauty, is now 86 and recently stepped out in New York City looking elegant in a sleek black suit.

With her gray hair swept back and a simple black handbag, she appeared as graceful as ever.

MacGraw rose to fame in her 30s with her breakout role in Goodbye, Columbus (1969), winning a Golden Globe for Most Promising Newcomer.

A year later, she starred as Jenny Cavilleri in Love Story (1970), earning another Golden Globe and an Oscar nomination.

The film became one of the highest-grossing romantic dramas and cemented her place as a Hollywood icon.

Known for the iconic line “Love means never having to say you’re sorry,” Love Story turned MacGraw into a household name.

She left the film industry in the ’90s and has since kept a low profile. Reflecting on her rise to fame, she said it was surreal becoming a movie

star overnight at 30, having never formally studied acting. Now in her mid-80s, she remains admired for her talent, beauty, and timeless presence.
