A Legendary Birthday Celebration: Dick Van Dyke Turns 99
There’s no better way to celebrate a life well-lived than by doing what you love—and that’s exactly what legendary entertainer Dick Van Dyke did on his 99th birthday. Joined by Coldplay, Dick brought his charm, talent, and timeless energy to the stage once again in a special seven-minute music video for "All My Love." Filmed at his Malibu home last October, the video isn’t just a celebration of the song—it’s a tribute to Dick’s extraordinary career and the joy he’s brought to millions over nearly eight decades in show business.
As Dick puts it in the video, “I think I’m one of those lucky people who got to do for a living what I would’ve done anyway.” And honestly, who could argue? The man behind classics like Mary Poppins and The Dick Van Dyke Show has spent decades making us laugh, smile, and feel good. In this new project, we get a glimpse into the man behind the legend, as he reflects on his incredible journey with warmth and humility. “Think how lucky I am,” he says with a grin. “I got to do what I do—play and act silly.”
A Family Affair: Dancing, Singing, and Love
But the magic of this video doesn’t stop with Dick alone. We also see him sharing the spotlight with his beloved wife, Arlene, as they dance together in a moment that’s both sweet and inspiring. There’s also a duet with Coldplay’s frontman, Chris Martin, adding another layer of talent and collaboration to the project. And of course, no birthday celebration would be complete without family—and Dick’s is no exception. The video captures precious moments with his children, grandchildren, and even great-grandchildren, all gathered to celebrate the man who’s been such a beacon of positivity throughout his life.

When asked about his family, Dick lights up. “They all turned out great, I’m happy to say.” It’s a simple statement, but one that speaks volumes about the values and love that have guided him through the years. For someone who’s spent so much time entertaining others, it’s clear that family remains at the heart of everything Dick does.
