Evans left "Dynasty" in 1989, four months before the series came to an end, after only appearing in six episodes of the 22-episode ninth and final season. After leaving "Dynasty", Evans semiretired from acting and made only occasional television appearances. Instead, she devoted her time to fitness issues and set up a small chain of fitness centers. In the 1990s, Evans hosted infomercials for Rejuvenique, a mask for toning facial muscles. She had previously written the "Linda Evans Beauty and Exercise" book in 1983. She also kept in touch with Forsythe, until he died on April 1, 2010, and she was very devastated by his passing. Evans was asked when she first met Forsythe, as an unfamiliar actress, for her first speaking part, with him: Her agent "signed me up for "Bachelor Father" and John Forsythe gave me my first speaking part."
