==Writing and fashion career==

In the 1980s, Seymour began a parallel career as a writer of self-help and inspirational books, including ''Jane Seymour's Guide to Romantic Living'' (1986), ''Two at a Time: Having Twins'' (2002), ''Remarkable Changes'' (2003) and ''[[Among Angels (book)|Among Angels]]'' (2010). She also co-wrote several children's books, with her then-husband [[James Keach]], for the ''This One 'N That One'' series.<ref name=":0" /><ref>{{Cite web |last=Salasya |first=Bill Cyril |date=2024-03-06 |title=Jane Seymour's net worth from acting and entrepreneurship |url=https://www.tuko.co.ke/facts-lifehacks/celebrity-biographies/540389-jane-seymours-net-worth-acting-entrepreneurship/ |access-date=2024-06-09 |website=Tuko.co.ke - Kenya news. |language=en}}</ref> 

In 1985, Seymour appeared at [[Fashion Aid]], a one-time fashion show fundraiser held at the [[Royal Albert Hall]] in London. An event organised by [[Bob Geldof]] to raise funds for the ongoing [[1983–1985 famine in Ethiopia|Ethiopian famine]] caused by the policies of [[dictator]] [[Mengistu Haile Mariam]], the finale of the show saw her partake in a mock wedding with [[Freddie Mercury]]. Seymour wore a white lace wedding dress that was designed by [[David Emanuel (fashion designer)|David]] and [[Elizabeth Emanuel]] – who had previously created [[Wedding dress of Lady Diana Spencer|Princess Diana's wedding gown]].<ref>{{cite news |title=Remember when Freddie Mercury had a fake wedding? |url=https://www.crfashionbook.com/culture/a22885382/freddie-mercury-fashion-fake-wedding-jane-seymour/ |access-date=17 April 2019 |agency=Cr fashion book |archive-date=19 April 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190419095338/https://www.crfashionbook.com/culture/a22885382/freddie-mercury-fashion-fake-wedding-jane-seymour/ |url-status=dead }}</ref>

In 2008, Seymour replaced [[Selina Scott]] as the new face of fashion label [[Country Casuals|CC]] (formerly known as Country Casuals) under the [[Austin Reed (retailer)|Austin Reed]] banner of retailers.<ref name="vogue">{{cite magazine|last=Pyle |first=Ally |title=The New Face of CC |magazine=Vogue |url=http://www.vogue.co.uk/news/2008/03/19/the-new-face-of-cc |access-date=9 January 2012}}</ref><ref name="cc">{{cite web|title=The CC Brand Country Casuals |work=CC |url=http://www.ccfashion.co.uk/ |access-date=14 January 2012}}</ref>

Likewise in 2008, Seymour teamed up with and designed the "Open Heart Collection" for [[Kay Jewelers]], which promoted it with the advice, "Keep your heart open and love will ''always'' find its way in."<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.janeseymour.com/contact-adirondack/|title=Jane Seymour Biography|website=Jane Seymour|access-date=10 December 2015|archive-date=11 December 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20151211010153/http://www.janeseymour.com/contact-adirondack/|url-status=dead}}</ref> Beginning that year, she saw to it that she would always be wearing one of the collection's necklaces whenever seen in public while not in character for any of her acting performances. In the same year, Seymour also wrote and published the books ''Open Hearts: If Your Heart Is Open, love Will Always Find Its Way In'' and ''Open Hearts Family.''

A 2.08-carat cushion-cut fancy vivid blue diamond in an 18-karat rose-gold-plated platinum setting was named "The Jane Seymour" in her honour by World of Diamonds Group, which had mined it in Russia, cut and set it. The ring was presented to Seymour in April 2016 in Singapore while she was there to star in ''[[The Vortex]]''.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.britishtheatreplayhouse.com/vortex.html |title=The Vortex |work=britishtheatreplayhouse.com |publisher=British Theatre Playhouse |access-date=30 July 2016 |archive-date=4 April 2016 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160404103153/http://www.britishtheatreplayhouse.com/vortex.html |url-status=dead }}</ref><ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.jewellerymonthly.com/the-jane-seymour-presented-by-world-of-diamonds/ |title=The Jane Seymour Presented by World of Diamonds |work=jewellerymonthly.com |publisher=Jewellery Monthly |access-date=30 July 2016|date=7 June 2016 }}</ref><ref name="peak">{{cite web | url=http://thepeakmagazine.com.sg/2016/04/actress-jane-seymour-is-grace-in-blue/ | title=Vortex actress Jane Seymour gets warm Singapore welcome | publisher=SPH Magazines | work=thepeakmagazine.com.sg | access-date=26 July 2016 | author=Chen, Jennifer | date=29 April 2016 | archive-date=25 July 2016 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160725164142/http://thepeakmagazine.com.sg/2016/04/actress-jane-seymour-is-grace-in-blue/ | url-status=dead }}</ref>
