Life Off-Screen
Off-screen, Carter built a fulfilling personal life with attorney Robert A. Altman. They married in 1984 and shared a close, family-centered life until his passing in 2021. Carter openly shared her grief and reflected on the love and support they gave each other.
Carter has also been candid about her personal challenges, including her journey with alcohol addiction. Thanks to the support of her late husband, she has remained sober for over twenty years, serving as an inspiration to others facing similar struggles.
Continuing the Legacy
Even decades after her iconic role, Carter remains a passionate advocate for important causes. In 2016, she celebrated Wonder Woman’s 75th anniversary at the United Nations, promoting gender equality and empowerment. She continues to make public appearances, championing women’s rights and inspiring audiences with her authenticity and resilience.
Now in her 70s, Lynda Carter embodies the very qualities that made Wonder Woman so beloved: strength, compassion, and living life with purpose. Her legacy goes far beyond television—she shows that true power comes from staying true to oneself, both on and off the screen.
