podDIVA is on their summer holidays, so we're sending you some of our favourite episodes of the year. Because they're worth firing up the barbie and re-sizzling.

Jennifer Beals is an icon.

You'll know and love her for playing Bette Porter on Showtime's The L Word for very nearly 20 years.

But her illustrious career has spanned a plethora of culture-defining cinematic moments and performances.

The show's current iteration, The L Word Generation Q, sees her navigating the choppy waters of teen parenting, with and without her long term significant other, Tina Kennard.

In this intimate interview, DIVA's stunning January cover star discusses

• love
• the power of L-Word fans
• her friendship with actress Laurel Holloman on and off screen.

Interviewed by her royal DIVA-ness, DIVA magazine Editor Roxy Bourdillon.

This episode first aired on podDIVA in February 2023.
