Dick Van Dyke was seen using a walker while strolling with his wife, Arlene Silver.

In photos obtained by Page Six, the pair went for a walk in Los Angeles Tuesday and stopped by a Starbucks to grab some refreshments.

For the rare outing, Van Dyke, 100, wore dark blue sweatpants and a white collared shirt. Silver, 54, sported a black, off-the-shoulder graphic shirt with black pants.

At one point, Silver assisted her husband in getting out of their car and transitioning to the walker.

The couple was last seen in April at the opening of Malibu Urgent Care — where the Disney legend was spotted dancing and happily chatting.

During the event, Van Dyke used a cane as he sat beside iconic musician Herb Alpert. Silver also joined him for the outing.

The couple tied the knot in 2012, with the “Mary Poppins” star crediting the makeup artists for keeping him young.

“I met Arlene in 2006 and she quickly became my soulmate and the love of my life,” he said during an interview with “Good Morning America” last December.

“Without question, our ongoing romance is the most important reason I have not withered away into a hermetic grouch.”

He also noted that at “half [his] age,” she makes him feel “somewhere between two thirds and three quarters [his] age.”

During the sitdown, the six-time Emmy winner also revealed that he isn’t “afraid” of death as he reached his milestone birthday.

According to the “Dick Van Dyke Show” star, “some people are afraid of death” because they think the person dying is “aware” of what’s happening.

“Death doesn’t really frighten me,” he said, “although I’d like a lot more life!”
