She once turned heads in the iconic red swimsuit on Baywatch, but Nancy Valen kept it casual during a rare outing this month.

The 59-year-old actress, best known for playing lifeguard Samantha Thomas on the hit ’90s series, was spotted looking relaxed and low-key in Los Angeles. 

Trading in her famous beachside glamour, Valen stepped out in a cozy navy hoodie, matching sweatpants and white sneakers.

The star, who appeared alongside Pamela Anderson and David Hasselhoff during Baywatch’s heyday, attempted to fly under the radar as she kept her long brown hair hidden under a blue Los Angeles Dodgers cap.

Despite the contrast from her television days, Valen radiated ease and confidence.

Though she has largely stepped out of the spotlight in recent years, Valen remains a beloved part of Baywatch’s legacy, a show that continues to live on in reruns and reboots.

Baywatch ran from 1989 to 1999 and became one of the most watched TV shows in the world, with a weekly audience of 1.1 billion in 148 countries.

The show was translated into 44 different languages.

Over her career, she has guest starred on 23 series including Friends, CSI: Crime Scene Investigation, Boy Meets World, Full House, Charles in Charge and Miami Vice.

Valen has been happily married to actor and producer, Nels Van Patten, since  1994.

The couple share sons, named Jake and Alex. 

Last month, her family took in a four-month-old stray kitten they found 'under' their house. 

While making the announcement on Instagram, she revealed they named the cat, Ishkabibble. 

In January amid the devastating fires in Los Angeles, which burned 37,000 acres and more than 16,000 structures, Valen shared an update on how she was holding up. 

'It was a tense night. Running errands yesterday I saw a tremendous amount of smoke coming from Mulholland Drive. We’re in the flats, and out of any zone that typically experiences fire so I was in disbelief last night when I saw this near my home,' she captioned a photo of the fire from a distance. 

She continued: 'Astonishing the Palisades fire is cresting Mulholland and threatening the San Fernando Valley. We are just outside the evacuation zone and hoping the winds stay calm. Praying for all you who are in harms way. Every day we hear of friends who have lost their homes.' 

'Thank you to the firefighters and all those who have reached out,' she concluded. 

At the time, her fans sent their prayers and commented that they were 'sending love' amid the 'unimaginable' tragedy.
