Sir Michael Caine, 90, uses walking stick after heartbreaking admission

Legendary actor Sir Michael Caine, 90, used a walking stick as he made a rare public appearance on a red carpet with his wife and daughters for his upcoming film

Sir Michael Caine was seen using a walking stick in a rare public appearance at his film premiere.

The legendary actor, 90, joined his The Great Escaper cast members at the London screening of the new film on Tuesday night. He appeared in good spirits at the BFI in London as he posed for a number of photos. The Educating Rita star looked smart in a blue shirt and navy blazer, paired with black trousers. He attended the event with his wife Shakira Caine and two daughters, Dominique, 67 and Natasha, 50.

Michael stars in BAFTA nominated Oliver Parker’s new film based on the true-life story of a British World War II veteran who ‘broke out’ of his nursing home to attend the 70th anniversary D-Day commemorations in France, in June 2014. The actor was spotted holding onto director Oliver’s arm during the London premiere as he posed for pics with his walking stick.

He also sat on a frame for group snaps on the red carpet alongside Will Fletcher, Danielle Vitalis and Sir John Standing. Michael’s rare public appearance comes after his wife Shakira, 76, shared he’d had surgery. She told the Daily Mail in March 2022: “He had a back operation quite recently. He had spinal stenosis.” According to the NHS, spinal stenosis is a condition that narrows the spinal canal and can cause back and leg pain that mostly occurs when walking.
