Bridget Fonda and Danny Elfman have popped up in public together for the first time in 16 years.
The couple were photographed outside their Los Angeles home on Monday.
Fonda, 61, wore a black peacoat, a white T-shirt and a pair of dark sweatpants, while Elfman, 71, had on a black and grey shirt, black pants and a black baseball cap.
The stars, who have been married since 2003, appeared to be organizing items in their garage in the photos.
The retired actress and her composer husband are rarely spotted together. Back in 2009, they attended the “Inglourious Basterds” premiere at the Grauman’s Chinese Theatre in Hollywood.
Fonda has been photographed without Elfman a handful of times more recently.
In Aug. 2024, she arrived at LAX Airport with their son Oliver, 19, without her wedding ring on.
The outing sparked speculation that Fonda split from Elfman, who was previously accused of sexual abuse and harassment.
In 2017, pianist Nomi Abadi claimed she was sexually harassed by the star, who she accused of stripping naked and masturbating in front of her. Elfman denied those claims; however, he reportedly settled the lawsuit she filed against him for $830,000 in 2018.
Then in 2023, a second accuser — known as Jane Doe XX — stepped forward with allegations against the famous musician. Her lawsuit accused Elfman of allegedly “grooming” her when she was 21 and a student at the New York Film Academy in 1997.
Elfman denied the accusations against him, with his spokesperson telling The Hollywood Reporter: “The allegations of misconduct made against Mr. Elfman are baseless and absurd. His legal team is assessing all options and he will vigorously defend these claims in court.”
Fonda is a member of the famous Fonda family that includes dad Peter Fonda and aunt Jane Fonda. She’s appeared in well-known movies like “Singles” (1992), “The Godfather Part III” (1990), “Point of No Return” (1993) and “Jackie Brown” (1997).
She has not acted since the 2002 TV film “Snow Queen.”
Fonda retired from the silver screen after she was involved in a 2003 crash on the Pacific Coast Highway due to rainy conditions.
In April 2023, she told paparazzi while at LAX that she’d never return to Hollywood.
“It’s too nice being a civilian,” she stated.
