Sharon Stone has revealed her recent relationship with a younger man ended because she refused to get Botox.

As reported by Page Six, the 64-year-old Basic Instinct star shared in her September 2022 cover story for Vogue Arabia that she was no longer getting the wrinkle-easing injections.

After Stone’s partner asked if she used Botox, the actor responded, “It would probably be really good for your ego and mine if I did.”

“I saw him one more time after that and then he wasn’t interested in seeing me anymore,” she told the magazine.

“If you don’t see me for more than that, you’ll please find your way to the exit.”

The Total Recall actor did use injectables in the past before giving them up for good, and opened up to the magazine about her “painful” history with the treatment.

“There were periods in the super fame when I got Botox and filler and stuff, and then I had this massive stroke and a nine-day brain haemorrhage and I had to have over 300 shots of Botox and filler to make the one side of my face come up again,” she recalled.

The near-death experience, she added, changed the concept of Botox from “cute luxury to some kind of massive, painful neurological need”.

These days, Stone prefers to celebrate her age, and fans are responding; in late July, a topless bikini photo she shared on Instagram (caption: “Gratefully Imperfect on a Perfect Day”) quickly went viral.

“I posted it because I feel like women become invisible once we become mums and you’re 45 and people walk by you like you’re not there,” the mum-of-three shared.

She also said the photo was snapped during an afternoon with a pal, with each woman taking the other’s photo because “life doesn’t always make you feel like a winner as you grow older”.
