Blue Lagoon star Christopher Atkins is looking for a 'highly sexual' girlfriend

It's been over 40 years since Blue Lagoon came out, but Christopher Atkins feels like he hasn't aged a day.

The actor, 60, recently joked he's looking for a "highly sexual" girlfriend to keep up with his "spontaneous craziness."

"I want a woman, obviously no drama, I'm too old for that," he told Page Six.

"A woman who loves to laugh, can be spontaneous … has to be open and what I mean by open is I believe that a good relationship is how healthy your intimacy is and what I mean by intimacy is not sex. But the ability to express oneself on an intimate basis without judgment and ridicule."

"As time goes by, of course, it's going to die down to maybe once," Akins, who starred in the 1980 film opposite Brooke Shields, jokingly added.

Akins was married to Australian actress Lyn Barron — they share two children — for 20 years, explaining that he's a "serial monogamist."
