Hilarie Burton Morgan is embracing her natural gray hair with pride, declaring herself “the youngest woman” in the exclusive “Gray Hair Club.” The 42-year-old actress and author, who has been wearing her gray hair for years, shared an Instagram Reel highlighting iconic celebrities who’ve also embraced the silver strands, including Sarah Jessica Parker, Jamie Lee Curtis, and Jane Fonda.
The video, titled How to Style Grey Hair, was created by @styledbyfrancescacairns, and Burton Morgan reposted it on her Instagram Stories, sharing her enthusiasm for being part of this empowering group. “In the BEST company here and proud to be the youngest woman in the Grey Club,” she wrote.
Burton Morgan, married to actor Jeffrey Dean Morgan and mother of two, has been open about her journey with gray hair. In a candid appearance on The View last October, she spoke to co-host Joy Behar about her decision to embrace her graying locks. Reflecting on the pressures of being a teen drama actress and the societal expectation to remain youthful, Burton Morgan shared that accepting aging has been liberating.
“It’s a weird thing when you were a teen drama actress, and the expectation to be 17 forever is out there,” she said. “I didn’t necessarily like my younger years. I dealt with some dark stuff in my younger years. So this idea that you can level up and get to the place where you’re the salty one in the room was exciting to me.”
The actress revealed that her role models were stars like Bea Arthur, Ruth Gordon, and Betty White, and she embraced the natural aging process with the same confidence and grace. “Going gray early had been a relief,” she added, reinforcing her positive outlook on aging and self-acceptance.
Burton Morgan’s journey of embracing her gray hair has resonated with many, showing that beauty and confidence grow with age.
