Frail-looking Betty White made a rare public appearance in Beverly Hills on July 5, 2018. White needed help walking to the car and clutched the arm of her driver. This is the first time the Golden Girls actress has been photographed since October 12, 2017. Click through RadarOnline.com’s gallery to see the 96-year-old star.
White wore bright red lipstick that matched her red fingernails as she held tightly onto the arm of her black-suited chauffer in Beverly Hills.
She walked to the car clutching the man’s arm less than a year after she was rushed to a doctor’s office after a scary collapse. She was wearing blue pants and a white shirt as she slowly made her way to the vehicle.
White credited hot dogs and vodka for getting her to her 96th birthday.
The TV icon collapsed after a dizzy spell, with friends “terrified she’s killing herself.”
A source told RadarOnline.com in late 2017 that the Golden Girls star was battling early signs of dementia. Her rep denied that she had an emergency or was overworked.
