There’s no denying the talent and charm of Swoosie Kurtz, who’s been nominated for eight Emmys over her illustrious career. With over four decades in the TV industry, this remarkable actress continues to captivate audiences. At 73, she’s still making waves, most recently on Man With a Plan. But it wasn’t just her return to the screen that sparked conversation—it was her noticeable weight loss that had viewers buzzing.
On the Monday, December 4 episode of the CBS sitcom Man With a Plan, Swoosie Kurtz once again graced the screen as Bev, the mother of Matt LeBlanc's character, Adam. This marked her third appearance as the beloved character. While fans were thrilled to see her back, many couldn’t help but notice a significant change in her appearance. Swoosie, who’s already petite, looked even thinner, prompting speculation about her health. Could there be something more going on behind the scenes?

Thankfully, there’s no need to hit the panic button just yet. Swoosie Kurtz hasn’t mentioned any health issues publicly, and she’s always been open about her personal life. In fact, she’s shared some deeply personal experiences in the past, such as her decision to have an abortion. During a 2014 interview with The Huffington Post, she opened up about the emotional toll it took on her. “It was one of the most difficult things I’ve ever been through in my life,” she revealed. “Impossibly difficult.” If there was something serious going on, it’s likely she’d share it with her fans.
It’s worth noting that appetite changes are common as we age, especially for women. Swoosie, who’s now in her 70s, might simply be experiencing a natural shift in her eating habits. This could explain her slimmer appearance. In fact, this isn’t the first time fans have noticed changes in her size. Back when she was starring on Mike & Molly, viewers were already commenting on her weight loss, expressing concern on social media.
Swoosie Kurtz just doesn’t look well on the Mike and Molly show. I really hope she’s not sick. She’s just skin & bones….not a good sign.
