There hasn't been any news regarding him since he released an album last year.
He's suffered a number of losses recently, such as his co-star Mary Tyler Moore and his younger brother Jerry.
His granddaughter Jessica Van Dyke died of Reyes Syndrome in 2013, and Dick has been a spokesman for the treatment of that disease.
He will be 93 years old in December, and I want to believe that he is finally slowing down some.
I'm sure he's very happy with his wife Arlene.

I saw a program that showed us his new wife, who is much younger, like 30's or 40's. She never thought she'd marry a man in his 90's, but DVD is no ordinary man - happy and still full of life and the joy of living.

I heard he’s going to make a cameo in the new Mary Poppins remake/sequel/whatever-it-is…
I’m still disinclined to see it, but seeing that he and Angela Lansbury are going to be in it makes the concept slightly less egregious… No Julie Andrews, though.

Gad, jervis--he looks like a garden gnome in those pix!
And those implants really look artificial.
At least I hope they're not causing him migraines any more.

A life-long chain smoker and has been a heavy drinker, and yet is 93y/o, there's always an exception to the rule, or he has incredible genes.

There hasn't been any news regarding him since he released an album last year. No news is good news … NOT being a headline in those Grocery Store checkout "newspapers" usually indicates that ALL IS WELL. BUT seriously .. he is probably going about enjoying his daily life and wishing that busy bodies who have nothing to do with him and don't know him from a hole in the fence were not speculating about his emotional and marital well being. (such as "I'm sure he's very happy with his wife Arlene. "  ) BUT …. This thread had turned into a nice little tribute to DVD's career ...l  |

Dick Van Dyke probably is staying up late at night and posting on the internet wondering what snsurone is up to because he hasn't read anything about her in any of the tabloids for a quite a while. OR More likely he's doin' this:  |
