She was an 80s sex symbol before famously playing Chandler Bing's mom, can you guess who she is?


She had a glittering television career that included roles on Dallas, General Hospital, Days of Our Lives, and Falcon Crest, in addition to being one of the most popular sex symbols of the 1980s.

Later in her career, she famously went on to play Nora Bing, the mother of Matthew Perry's character Chandler in iconic TV sitcom Friends, years after starring alongside actor's father in Flamingo Road. The blonde pinup later took on small roles on TV favorites like Kojak, Happy Days, Police Woman, The Bob Newhart Show, and a few episodes of CBS Radio Mystery Theater. Fairchild's last big project was the Lifetime film, Ladies of the '80s: A Divas Christmas, alongside Loni Anderson, Linda Gray, Donna Mills, and Nicolette Sheridan.
