At the impressive age of 97, the legendary entertainer, Dick Van Dyke, is expanding his already extensive skill set by taking up the ukulele. In a delightful Instagram video, the “Mary Poppins” star is seen strumming along as he receives his first ukulele lesson from instructor Melanie Kareem. In the video, Van Dyke humorously asks where the F chord is located, showcasing his eagerness to learn. Captioning the video, he shares the valuable sentiment that it is never too late to embark on something new. The Post has reached out to Van Dyke for further comment.
Dick Van Dyke, who is 97 years young, captioned the Instagram video with the inspirational words, “It’s never too late to start something new.” Fans flooded the comment section with praise for the Tony, Grammy, and Emmy-winning icon, commending him for setting an example on how to stay youthful. One supporter shared their own journey, expressing how they began tap dancing at the age of 60 and though not award-winning, they are thoroughly enjoying themselves. Another follower, feeling apprehensive about taking piano lessons at the age of almost 53, found encouragement and joy in watching Van Dyke pursue the ukulele. Despite enduring a traffic accident in March, Van Dyke seems to be in good health, sharing his experience with fans. He received two stitches on his chin and described feeling sore all over, but maintained his lightheartedness by jokingly attributing his “dumber” moments to the accident. Assuring fans that he is fine and still enjoying life, he acknowledged the unfortunate reality that many of his peers have passed away, lightening the mood with one of his signature grins.
