She said: "I shouldn't say this, but I'd never dated anyone that I wanted to marry.
“I didn't think it was going to be out there for me. But the minute we were married, I felt the difference: I felt like I am no longer alone. I got married - and I married a doctor!”
Jane is also stepmother to Lara’s eight-year-old daughter Haden and though the actress is currently renovating her property so her new family can move in, she is still finding the time to bond with the youngster.
She said: “I took her to school. I picked her up. I went to lunch with her. So I kind of had a test run. We’re pretty darn good together.”
The 50-year-old actress is struggling to cope while the renovations are being carried out because most of Lara’s possessions are packed away in boxes at their home and she is desperate to start tidying them away.
She admitted to America’s More magazine: “I’m a little OCD. I don’t want to start going through the boxes and saying, ‘Well, we can get rid of this, and that!’ But it’s hard.”
