She famously bid adieu to Hollywood nearly 25 years ago and has not looked back.
Linda Kozlowski is now living a quieter life with her second husband Moulay Hafid Baba and their four-year-old Golden Retriever named Thaddeus in the peaceful town of Ojai, California. DailyMail.com has uncovered.
The 66-year-old former actress rose to fame starring in the popular 1986 movie Crocodile Dundee alongside her former husband Paul Hogan, who is now 85.
She gained massive attention for introducing the trend of thong bodysuits following a famous scene in the film where her character, New York reporter Sue Charlton, changes into a black bodysuit and while trying to fetch water, finds herself in a dangerous situation with a sneaky crocodile in the Australian Outback.
Luckily she is spared from danger after Hogan’s character Mike Dundee, who had been spying on her nearby, jumps in to rescue the stunning blonde damsel in distress.
But as these exclusive DailyMail.com images show almost forty years on, Linda now embraces her brunette hair and less sexy attire.
Linda Kozlowski appears to be enjoying a more lowkey lifestyle nearly 25 years after leaving Hollywood for good
The retired actress was snapped enjoying a day at the park with her second husband Moulay Hafid Baba and their golden retriever at a park in Ojai, California, this week
Linda, dressed in black top and leggings with Nike sneakers, and Moulay took their precious pooch to a park on Tuesday afternoon to let him run off leash and roughhouse with other dogs in the grassy area.
They could be seen throwing a frisbee and laughing when the adorable pooch refused to chase it and instead rolled around on the field.
When Thaddeus was thirsty, Moulay went back to the car to get him a bowl and water while Linda patiently sat with him smiling.
Linda and her second husband appear to have a solid partnership, and a love of seeing the world in common.
Since meeting a decade ago, the two have traveled all over the globe, including Africa, Spain, Greece, Italy, Japan, Australia and more, all documented on Linda’s official Instagram account.
Moulay, a tour guide from Morocco was introduced to Linda through mutual friends in 2014.

Two years ago the couple purchased a newly remodeled single story, four-bedroom, two-bath home in Ojai for nearly $2million.
Ojai is a haven for artists, and people who love the outdoors with its numerous biking, hiking, and horse trails.
Moulay can be seen doing landscaping on the property, chatting with neighbors, and running errands to nearby hardware stores.
The adventurous couple work together on their business Dream My Destiny, which arranges tours for tourists around the world, and scouts movie locations for the film industry.
Linda was previously married to her Australian co-star Paul Hogan for 24 years.
The two fell in love on set of the iconic film while Hogan – 19 years Kozlowski’s senior – was still married to wife Noelene Edwards. The couple wed in 1990, welcomed son Chance eight years later, and divorced in 2014.

Hogan would later leave his home country behind and settle with Kozlowski in Los Angeles in the 90s.
As DailyMail.com previously reported, their troubled son Chance, 26, is currently living with his father in Venice, California. Chance is no stranger to scandal – after all, his parents’ relationship was one of the biggest tabloid stories of the late 1980s.
Last month Hogan was reported to be ‘worried sick’ about his son after concerning photos continue to emerge of his youngest child.
Chance was recently spotted looking disheveled as he loitered in a back alley close to his father’s lavish Venice Beach home.
His online behavior has also become more erratic, sparking further concerns.
He recently shared a bizarre video of himself ominously claiming something is about to ‘begin’ as he bared his inflamed gums to the camera.

According to New Idea, family friend’s say Paul, 85, has become ‘stressed’ about his son’s lifestyle.
‘Paul is at a crossroads over how to handle all this. One option would be to move back to Australia, but Chance doesn’t want to leave America,’ the source said.
