‘Jeffersons’ Star Marla Gibbs Hits Gym at 94 After Near-Fatal Health Crisis: ‘It’s Never Too Late’

Marla Gibbs is inspiring fans with her strength and determination at 94 years old.

The Jeffersons legend shared a motivational gym snap via Instagram on Wednesday, May 13, showing herself lifting weights and staying active nearly 20 years after surviving a devastating brain aneurysm.

“At my age it’s easy to just lay in bed,” Gibbs captioned the post, which racked up more than 28,000 likes. “Then I remember … as long as I’m breathing, I still have a chance to enjoy life. It’s Never Too Late!!!”

Further proof she’s not letting the health setback slow her down? “I’m thinking about having a book signing or book discussion event in LA,” she wrote to her fans. “I’ll keep you all updated.”

Fans and celebrities quickly flooded the comments section with praise for the sitcom icon.

“You go gurl,” Arsenio Hall wrote, while Terry Crews cheered, “LETS GOOOOO.”

Even Beyoncé‘s mother Tina Knowles hit like.

Gibbs famously played sharp-tongued housekeeper Florence Johnston on The Jeffersons from 1975 to 1985. She later starred on the hit sitcom 227.

According to the Daily Mail in Gibbs’ memoir Never Too Late, the Emmy nominee previously detailed her difficult recovery after the brain aneurysm in 2006.

“Most people do not survive brain aneurysms,” Gibbs wrote at the time. “I knew God still had plans for me.”

The actress admitted she feared her career might be over after seeing “the old woman staring back” in the mirror following rehab. Still, she fought hard throughout her recovery — and it all paid off: Gibbs returned to acting and most recently appeared on Chicago Med earlier this year.

“Acceptance of where I was in my recovery was essential to me healing,” she wrote in the tome, per the outlet, “and I think acceptance is key to healing in life.”
