Teri Hatcher posts bra-less snap from Kenyan lagoon during night swim

Desperate Housewives star Teri Hatcher, 60, sparked attention with a new Instagram post showing her emerging from a lagoon in Kenya wearing a white tank top with no bra beneath and a wet, cling­ing fabric.

The image captures her dripping wet, smiling as she wades through the water with friends. In the caption, Hatcher jokes that “this is me walking into a scary lagoon at night in Kenya! Note the socks I was certain would keep me safe.” The timing of the trip isn’t clear, but she is shown with her father, Owen Hatcher Jr., in the photos.

A separate family photo from the same trip shows Hatcher and her father on a daytime savannah excursion, posing in front of a passing pair of giraffes. The posts indicate that her parents were part of the journey, and she has posted about them previously, including a video four weeks ago of her bringing homemade tacos to their home.

The Kenya post also served as a plug for her podcast Desperately Devoted, which Hatcher hosts with her daughter Emerson Tenney, 27, and actress Andrea Bowen, 35, who played her character’s daughter on Desperate Housewives. The plug sits alongside chatter on social media about the long-running series and its cast dynamics.

Hatcher remains best known for her role as Susan Meyer on Desperate Housewives, a show whose ensemble cast has long been the subject of online speculation about on-set tensions and possible reunions. In recent years, comments from cast members have revived interest in old rumors. For example, Jesse Metcalfe, who played her one-time love interest on the show, addressed questions about set drama at a panel last month, telling People he was grateful to be on the series and that, while there were stories about drama among the leads, he was largely unaware of them firsthand.

Beyond the headlines, Hatcher has spoken publicly about maintaining her health and fitness. In an interview with the Daily Mail several years ago, she described a diet focused on vegetables, dark leafy greens, fruits, protein, and whole grains, and she criticized processed foods, sugar, and alcohol. She said she supplemented this with meditation and regular exercise to help keep her body adaptable for years to come.

In a separate post last month, she shared a makeup-free collage from a sunset stroll, describing her lines as “a story of real human effort, successes & flaws,” and adding that she chooses gratitude for the time gifted in every wrinkle.

Overall, the Kenya post highlights a blend of carefree travel moments, family ties, and ongoing media visibility for a star who has remained a persistent presence in popular culture since her peak years on network television.
