In photos obtained by Page Six , the pair were photographed on Saturday, October 5, after grabbing Starbucks in Malibu, California. For the outing, Hines, 59, wore a black T-shirt, jeans and white sneakers. She seemingly did not have a wedding ring on her left ring finger.

We regret this violation of our readers’ trust,” the magazine’s statement read.
