Sir Michael Caine, 90, looks dapper in a navy blazer as he and wife Shakira, 76, dine at new Mayfair restaurant... after announcing his acting retirement
Sir Michael Caine and wife Shakira dined at a new Mayfair restaurant in London, on Thursday.
The iconic actor, 90, looked dapper in a navy blazer as he and his longtime love, 76, enjoyed a meal at Nico's, which opened just two weeks ago.
Michael teamed his smart jacket with a baby blue shirt and smart trousers as he used a mobility aid while making his way out of the eatery. He has been reliant on support since undergoing surgery on his back last year.
Shakira oozed effortless glamour in a sleek all-black trouser suit, which she wore with a sparkling black and silver top.
Their outing comes a month after veteran British actor Sir Michael announced that he has retired from acting.

Sir Michael confirmed his decision in October, following a stellar career spanning seven decades and days after the release of his latest film, The Great Escaper.
The talented star - who has starred in over 180 movies - explained his decision came after he concluded that 'you don't have leading men at 90.'
Confirming the news, the beloved thespian told BBC Radio 4's Today programme: 'I keep saying I'm going to retire. Well I am now.'
'I've figured, I've had a picture where I've played the lead and had incredible reviews... What am I going to do that will beat this?'
Sir Michael recently revealed the secret to a long, happy life is to marry a younger woman, stop eating between meals – and wear trainers.
In an interview with The Mail on Sunday's You Magazine, Sir Michael said his advice for longevity is 'younger wives, no snacking and wearing trainers all the time – and you have to be careful not to fall down'.
He married model Shakira Baksh in 1973 after seeing her in a TV advert and tracking her down. She was 26 and he was 40.
They have a daughter Natasha and three grandchildren he says also help to keep him youthful, adding: 'You want to live forever to see what they do with their lives.'
