Jenilee Harrison was one of the bright spots on the fun sitcom Three's Company.

The actress, now 67, rose to fame as a sex symbol starlet at the age of 21 when she landed the role of Cindy Snow on Three's Company in the '80s. 

She was replacing the perky Suzanne Somers, who had left the show in 1981 following a contract dispute where she demanded equal pay to her male co-star, John Ritter.

Harrison also starred with Larry Hagman on the hit drama Dallas, portraying the long-lost Ewing cousin Jamie Ewing Barnes in a recurring role for two seasons. 

And she appeared on the hot TV shows of the day, Fantasy Island and The Love Boat. 

She portrayed a sex worker in the 1984 action-comedy Tank and has also made appearances in the  drama soap Murder, She Wrote.

And she played a guest star role on That '70s Show in 1999. But she ultimately left Hollywood behind in 2002 to take care of animals on her ranch in Southern California.

She recently shared a post to Instagram, see her now.

She was a blonde bombshell in the '80s.

And then she left it behind to do the wholesome work of rescuing animals and tending to them in her Southern California ranch.

Before she left showbiz to pursue her passions of caring for animals and car racing, as well as focusing on her real estate investments, she became a soap star in the early '70s.

She got her big break when she landed a part on Three's Company, portraying the ditzy and pretty California blonde roommate.

Her role was created to replace Somers, who exited the series due to a dispute with the studios.

Harrison starred on the sitcom for two years before she was written off the show.

She went on to star in Dallas, appearing in 70 episodes until she decided to leave the show in 1986. 

In addition to appearing in the movie Tank, she also starred in Fantasy Island, The Love Boat and They Came from Outer Space.
