Actor Dick Van Dyke’s wife Arlene Silver has issued a health statement after the actor missed a comedy event due to illness.

The 99-year-old Mary Poppins actor, who has been married to Silver, 53, for the last 13 years, was slated to host his event Vandy Camp at Malibu High School on Saturday, 28 June, but dropped out last minute.

During a speech, Silver acknowledged she was “not the Van Dyke you’re expecting” and told the audience, “I have to inform you that Dick is not up to coming to celebrate with us today. I’m sorry,” People reported.

“When you’re 99 and a half years old, you have good days and bad days,” she explained. “Unfortunately, today is not a good day for him, and he’s sick that he can’t be here.”
