Dukes Of Hazzard pin-up Catherine Bach steps out in Hollywood for rare outing… see her now at 72

In regards to her iconic outfit on the show, Bach shared she had been behind the look while talking to Fox News. 

She said that the creators of the show 'wanted me to wear a poodle skirt that matched the tablecloth. 

'I said, "You want me to match the tablecloth? That's demeaning to women." They went, "We didn't come up with that!' 

Bach remembered grabbing her 'jean shorts that I could never get even, with cowboy boots and a little top... They loved it.' 

Four films followed the series which came to an end in 1985, with the most recent being The Dukes Of Hazzard: The Beginning (2017). 

After her time as Daisy Duke, Bach appeared in other shows such as The Love Boat, African Skies and Monk. 

From 2012-2019, the actress also portrayed the character of Anita Lawson on The Young And The Restless. 

Her latest acting credit was the 2024 movie Holy Cash. 

Last year in October, Bach faced a health scare when she was hospitalized for an embolism.

It is 'an obstruction or blockage in a blood vessel. Most often, it starts as a blood clot from elsewhere that breaks off and travels through your bloodstream,' per the Cleveland Clinic. 

Bach was previously married to David Shaw from 1976 until their divorce in 1981. 

She later married entertainment lawyer Peter Lopez in 1990 and the pair welcomed two children. In 2010, Lopez died by suicide at the age of 60.
