The 88-year-old actor was dressed to the nines on Thursday as he and wifeShakiraenjoyed a night out with friends in London.
Seen visiting the exclusive Oswald’s Club with Shakira, 74, Caine rocked a navy-blue blazer over a light-blue dress shirt, black slacks and black shoes as he smiled for photographers.
Shakira, meanwhile, looked glam in a long-sleeved partly sheer red top, black pants and black shoes, finishing her look with a classic red lip.

“I was never bombed on set, but I thought that a small vodka for breakfast was nothing to worry about, and in the early 1970s I was drinking two bottles of the stuff a day,” Caine writes.
Luckily, it was around this same time that he met his wife, model Shakira, and says she helped him turn things around.
“By an immense stroke of good fortune,Shakira arrived in my life just in time. The empty feeling vanished and she got on my case. Then, to top it all, she got pregnant and I was given a second go at fatherhood, and soon I got myself straightened out. I gave up alcohol entirely for a year and now I never drink during the day, and with dinner it’s just wine,” Caine says in the book. “Shakira literally saved my life.”
