Linda Kozlowski’s ascent from a struggling actress to a prominent figure in Hollywood commenced unexpectedly in the mid-1980s when she secured the role of Sue Charlton in “Crocodile Dundee.” This low-budget Australian comedy transformed into a worldwide sensation, earning $328 million globally.
The success of the film not only propelled her career forward but also sparked a genuine romance with her co-star Paul Hogan, who was nearly two decades her senior and married at the time. Despite facing intense media scrutiny, their relationship thrived, culminating in marriage in 1990, which captivated the public for years. However, Kozlowski’s career in Hollywood did not adhere to the conventional path; she became typecast and grew disenchanted with the monotonous roles presented to her. Following her appearance in the unsuccessful “Crocodile Dundee in Los Angeles” in 2001, she chose to step back from acting to prioritize her family. Her marriage to Hogan lasted 23 years, concluding amicably in 2014. Subsequently, she discovered new love with Moroccan tour guide Moulay Hafid Baba. Embracing a new chapter, she relocated to Morocco, co-founded a luxury travel company named Dream My Destiny, and engaged in a life rich with adventure and entrepreneurial pursuits. With financial stability from her divorce settlement and prudent investments, Kozlowski has successfully crafted a life beyond the Hollywood limelight, enjoying travel, style, and business opportunities far removed from her previous career.
