Jay Leno and wife Mavis attended the ‘Unfrosted’ red carpet event amid his dementia diagnosis

Jay Leno and his wife Mavis were all smiles on Tuesday as they supported some of Leno’s fellow comedians.

The pair attended the Los Angeles red carpet premiere of “Unfrosted,” a comedy about the origins of Pop-Tarts, which is the directorial debut of comedian Jerry Seinfeld. The film stars Amy Schumer, Melissa McCarthy and Jim Gaffigan.

Leno, who recently celebrated his 74th birthday, has been granted conservatorship over his wife’s estate as she lives with advanced dementia.

In a hearing held last month, a judge found “clear and convincing evidence that an Estate Conservatorship was necessary and appropriate,” because Mavis Leno was “unable” to independently manage her financial affairs due to dementia, according to court documents.

The former “Tonight Show” host and his wife have been married for over 43 years.

Leno had fun with the premiere, causing his Seinfeld friend’s interview with The Hollywood Reporter to fail.

“I’m so sick of this hard-hitting controversial documentary,” Leno joked to Seinfeld as his wife Mavis Leno laughed. “Can’t someone do comedy anymore?”

Seinfeld stated that he and Leno had been friends since 1978 and Leno said he was “very proud” of Seinfeld.
