Seymour's Squirt Cost Her A Thorn Birds Role

British actress [Jane Seymour](https://contactmusic.6lgx.com/jane-seymour) lost out on a lucrative role in TV drama THE [Thorn Birds](https://contactmusic.6lgx.com/thorn-birds) after squirting breast milk all over [Richard Chamberlain](https://contactmusic.6lgx.com/richard-chamberlain).

The [Dr Quinn](https://contactmusic.6lgx.com/dr-quinn), MEDICINE WOMAN star had given birth to her daughter KATE FLYNN just weeks before her big audition, and she was advised to stop breastfeeding the baby - because she was looking "too voluptuous."

But she regrets the advice cost her the role of MEGGI and the part made [Rachel Ward](https://contactmusic.6lgx.com/rachel-ward) a star instead.

She explains, "I was lying on top of Richard and my hormones jolted. My milk came back. There was a puddle on Richard's chest. I was mortified. I looked like someone in a wet T-shirt contest."
