Jan Smithers, best known for her role as Bailey Quarters on the popular television series "WKRP in Cincinnati," has been relatively out of the spotlight in recent years. This article focuses on what has happened to the actress since her days on the beloved sitcom.

Jan Smithers rose to fame in the late 1970s when she landed the role of Bailey Quarters, the intelligent and soft-spoken receptionist at the fictitious radio station in Cincinnati.

Her portrayal of Bailey endeared her to audiences, and she quickly became a favorite among fans of the show. Smithers' chemistry with the other cast members, particularly Howard Hesseman's Dr. Johnny Fever, further solidified her place in the hearts of viewers.

However, after the conclusion of "WKRP in Cincinnati" in 1982, Smithers stepped away from the limelight and chose to focus on her personal life.

She married actor James Brolin in 1986 and the couple seemed to lead a blissful life together. They had a daughter, Molly, and were often seen attending events together. Unfortunately, the marriage did not stand the test of time, and they divorced in 1995.

Following her divorce, Jan Smithers largely retreated from the public eye. She made only a few sporadic appearances on screen, including a guest role on the television show "Murder, She Wrote" in 1997.
