There are some celebrities who are so iconic and legendary that you don't really think about them as being, you know, humans that age and get older. To me, Dame Judi Dench is definitely one of them.

"I can't tell you how pleased I am to see Dame Judi Dench, the unassailable queen of stage and screen, starring on her first Vogue cover at the age of 85," wrote Edward Enninful, the editor-in-chief of Vogue, on Instagram.
The title was previously held by Lauren Hutton who, in 2017, took the title at the age of 73 — even though she no longer holds the record, that's definitely no small feat!
While the photos were taken in March before a lockdown was introduced in the UK, Judi touches on the current situation in the interview, saying, "I am sure I feel like everyone else, such unprecedented times are quite hard to comprehend."
"If a great deal of kindness comes out of this, then that will be a plus."
What an excellent message! Congratulations on your Vogue cover, Judi!
