Gene Wilder might be looking older and frailer – but he hasn’t lost that twinkle in his eye that we all love so much. He also appears to be still very much in love with his partner, something we can all aspire to in our later years.
Gene and his wife Karen Boyer, whom he has been married to since 1991, were photographed as they walked down a street in New York en route to the men’s final match at the US Open tennis tournament.
Now 82, Gene looked frail and his face thinner than it used to be, but he flashed his big signature smile for the photographers as he walked hand in hand with Karen.

The couple was also turned out beautifully. The Willy Wonka & The Chocolate Factory star was wearing a green polo shirt, grey blazer, navy trousers and beige shoes while Karen was wearing a floral dress and black low-heel shoes.
