Jane Seymour and Olivia Newton-John have been pals for quite some time!
The actress told the super bizarre story behind meeting Olivia four decades ago to Access Hollywoodβs Sibley Scoles at this yearβs Industry Dance Awards & Cancer Benefit Show at the Avalon Theater in Hollywood on Wednesday.

βI was her sisterβs roommate, and her sister just had a baby, who my father delivered. My father came home one day and said, βThere is this remarkable woman, and she just had a baby β¦ and she sings.β So I listened and I heard Olivia.β
Jane also noted that the pair have been on so many adventures throughout their long friendship, and have shared βa lot of comedic momentsβ together.
The 68-year-old also opened up to Access Hollywood about how proud she is of her dear friend amid Oliviaβs public battle with breast cancer.
βShe is thriving. I am just so happy because it was rough there, really, really rough,β she said. βWe are very, very close, we share (everything.) I would never be without her; I am hopelessly devoted to her.β
