After stepping away from the spotlight, Fonda's weight changed as she began living a more private life.

Iconic Career
Fonda comes from a family of mega Hollywood icons.
Fonda comes from a family of mega Hollywood icons – including her grandfather Henry Fonda, her father Peter Fonda and her aunt Jane Fonda.
During the 1990s, Fonda was a successful actress and received two Golden Globe nominations throughout her career, as well as a Primetime Emmy nomination.
Despite having an iconic resume of gigs, she admitted in a 2000 interview that she felt insecure when watching her work.
Fonda said: "What is it with my low self-esteem? I'm trying to be happy with my career. I think I should give myself a break, but I've got this bug that rides me. 'You should be doing better.' Every time I work, I'm frustrated with my physical inability to catch up to my mental picture."
Years prior to that, while promoting 1994’s Camilla, she hinted at feeling the same way towards her project saying: "I play a musician with terrible stage fright who has these big, hungry dreams. She’s got talent, but she is so acutely aware of those who are geniuses that she feels small and not good enough. It’s my life."
Her last screen credit was back in the 2002 television film 'Snow Queen.'
A few of Fonda's most iconic roles were in films like Single White Females, Jackie Brown and Point of No Return.
Her last gig was back in the 2002 television film Snow Queen, which was released the year before she was involved in a horrifying car accident.
While she was driving in the rain on a highway, her car flipped and rolled down a hill – which left her with two fractured vertebrae.
After giving birth to her son Oliver, who she welcomed in 2005 with her husband Danny Elfman, she took a step back from Hollywood.
The pair, who had not been spotted together on the red carpet since 2009, were seen in public together for the first time in 16 years outside their Los Angeles home in early May.
