Chitty Chitty: Last News

Dick Van Dyke may be 96 but his humour is still just as sharp after he was spotted wearing a ‘spoonful of sugar’ jumper. The Chitty Chitty Bang Bang actor was spotted out and about in Malibu, California on Wednesday during a busy day of running errands. First stop was a session at the gym, which he was spotted leaving with a pep in his step, explaining exactly how he remains nimble in his golden years. He later met up with his wife Arlene Silver and the two headed to a lunch date, with the actor still rocking his gym attire, which included a grey jumper with ‘spoonful of sugar’ printed on the front alongside a picture. It was, of course, a cheeky nod to Dick’s famous role as jack-of-all-trades Bert in the 1964 children’s classic Mary Poppins, in which the titular character sings the famous song. Dick was in cheerful spirits as he was seen laughing around with others while heading into the restaurant with Arlene. The couple have been married for 10 years and celebrated their anniversary in February. They met in 2007 when Arlene was working at the Screen Actors Guild Awards, and Dick took to the stage to present Mary Poppins actress Julie Andrews with a lifetime achievement award. Arlene, a former make-up artist and singer, previously recalled their first meeting and shared: ‘He said, “Hi, I’m Dick”.
