Over the years, she continued working selectively in entertainment. She made guest appearances on television programs, participated in charitable initiatives, and occasionally returned to the public eye for special projects.
In 2016, she competed on the popular television series Dancing with the Stars, introducing herself to a new generation of viewers.
Beyond television, Maples developed a strong interest in wellness and holistic living. She has spoken publicly about the importance of mindfulness, balanced nutrition, fitness, and personal well-being.
Through interviews and social media, she frequently shares insights about healthy living, self-care, and maintaining meaningful relationships.
Maples has also dedicated time to philanthropic work, supporting organizations focused on children’s welfare, health initiatives, and environmental causes.
