For Andie MacDowell, dates aren’t a priority anymore
While talking about looking and feeling beautiful, MacDowell also explained that her love life isn’t a priority for her right now. “Having to go on dates,” she laughed.

“One thing I forgot to mention in this [acceptance] speech is the intense amount of love you feel,” she said. MacDowell added, “Because so many other things fall out that don’t matter to you as much. And so you have a greater opportunity to have a bigger heart and a compassionate love and empathy for all kinds of different people. So, it’s not like I’m looking for a relationship. Like, I could have a great friendship with you and be very satisfied with the compassion and love I could feel for you, or for other people. It’s just a change that happens with age, which feels really good.”
