Dame Joan Collins paid another visit to her favourite Hollywood restaurant on Thursday evening.

Stepping out in a timeless leopard print blouse with her husband Percy Gibson, the loved-up couple cut stylish figures as they enjoyed a dinner date at the upmarket LA establishment Craig’s.

Joan, 87, teamed her statement-making shirt with a black coat and matching trousers, while former theatre manager Percy, 56, donned a sharp navy suit.

London-born Joan added a bold splash of colour to her ensemble with a swipe of pink lipstick and accessorised with glitzy diamond earrings. 

The iconic actress added height to her frame with a chic pair of black heels, and wore her raven locks swept back.

Joan later covered her face with a black diamanté-encrusted face mask in keeping with pandemic protocol.

Joining his wife of 19 years, Percy wore a blue medical face mask and sported a crisp handkerchief in his left chest pocket.

Joan – whose marriage to Peru born Percy is her longest – recently told the Mail On Sunday’s You magazine that she once turned down a pass from Robert F. Kennedy.

‘Ethel, his widow, is still alive so I really don’t want to go into it too much because I wouldn’t want to hurt her,’ she added diplomatically.

‘That was one of the things I said to him: ‘I’m married, you’re married.’ But he was so charismatic.’

Joan, who once starred in a movie called The B**** adapted by late sister Jackie from one of her own novels, has had a long and successful side-career as a raconteuse.

She has performed one-woman shows about her life with help from Percy and is also the author of multiple saucy books.

Her memoir Past Imperfect delivered a raft of stories about her career and love life, which included a turbulent engagement to Warren Beatty.

The daughter of a theatrical agent, she enjoyed several affairs in between – and sometimes overlapping with – her various marriages.

Joan was married at 18 to her actor first husband Maxwell Reed, who spiked her drink and raped her on their first date and whom she eventually left after he attempted to sell her for an night to an Arab sheikh for £10,000.

Her later ex-husbands were Anthony Newley, with whom she had her daughter Tara and son Sacha, erstwhile Beatles manager Ron Kass, who sired her daughter Katie, and ex-pop act Peter Holm, whom she dismissively referred to post-divorce as ‘the Swede.’ 

Long term: Joan's marriage to Percy, with whom she exchanged vows in 2002, is her longest to date
