[on why her first marriage to photographer Roy Adams ended in 1975] I was more successful than Roy, and it ultimately broke up our marriage.

I had never been in a situation of this scale before; it was pretty nerve-wracking. I had never received this kind of attention. I was just completely overwhelmed when they had the first press conference before we'd even started shooting The Man with the Golden Gun (1974). I remember walking in just expecting a few journalists to talk to me but instead it was this giant room crammed full of journalists from around the world. Suddenly I realized just how big the Bond world was. I was pretty intimidated and beleaguered. But Roger Moore had handled this in the past and was pretty cool about it all. He was very sweet and supportive. [interview with David Giammarco, Elle Canada, November 2002]
