Australian actor George Lazenby, who played James Bond in On Her Majesty's Secret Service in 1969, looked frail in a rare outing in California, multiple reports said.
George, 84, was photographed wearing an unbuttoned polo shirt and grey trousers, navigating the sidewalk of Sta. Monica.
The mirror.co.uk reported that earlier this year, Lazenby announced his retirement after a successful career spanning several decades.
Taking to social media last month, George bid farewell to his fans and the film industry. George's full announcement on July 25:
"This hasn’t been an easy decision but it’s time to announce my retirement from work.
"Therefore, I won’t be doing any more acting or making public appearances, doing any more interviews or signing any more autographs as of today.
"It’s been a fun ride but getting older is no fun. I would like to thank my manager and friend, Anders Frejdh, for helping me since 2013 - the best representative I ever had. I can now concentrate on spending more time with my family.
"My sincere gratitude to everyone out there for your love and support over the years. It has meant a lot to me. George xx"
