David Duchovny, 63, makes a rare sighting with his girlfriend Monique Pendleberry, 30, while stocking up on groceries in Los Angeles
David Duchovny made a rare public outing with his girlfriend Monique Pendleberry as she stocked up on groceries at Erewhon Market in the Calabasas.
The Californication star, 63, was seen leading the way pushing their packed car back towards their parked vehicle while wearing broken blue shorts, a tan T-shirt and green sneakers.
His other half, who he started dating in 2017, certainly turned heads when she showed off some serious leg in a pair of denim shorts, which she paired with a white T-shirt.
For their laid-back outing, she embraced a cowgirl chic aesthetic by pairing her casual look with a pair of brown cowboy boots and a straw hat over her long light brown locks.
Pendleberry, 30, seemed in good spirits, wearing a big, beaming smile as they walked out of the store with Duchovny, 63.
Rare sighting: David Duchovny, 63, makes a rare appearance with girlfriend Monique Pendleberry, 39, while shopping at an Erewhon Market in Los Angeles on Friday
The divorced father-of-two is nearly 33 years older than the University of California Irvine alumnus, who just celebrated her 30th birthday on June 14.
At one point, during their short walk across the parking lot, something caught their attention and they both stopped to take a look.
But soon they were on their way back to their parked car, all chatting to each other, which led to another infectious smile from Pendleberry.
Once they got to their car, the couple loaded all the packed shopping bags into the trunk and then seemingly drove back to their house.
The pair have been together since they met at a SunLife Organics Juicery, which is owned by Duchovny’s friend Khalil Rafati, and where Pendleberry was an employee at the time.
The New York City native was previously married to actress Téa Leoni, 56, beginning in 1997, but they would split in 2008, when he enrolled himself in a rehab center for sex addiction treatment.
They would reconcile in 2011 but break up again and eventually divorce in 2014.
The former couple share daughter West, 24, and son Kyd, 21.

His sound has been described as a mix of folk rock, alternative rock and country, according to several publications, including USA today.
Self-taught on the guitar, the Hollywood mainman and frontman only sings on Gestureland.
“I don’t have a great melodic voice or perfect pitch. I don’t have any of those things that you associate with a great singer, but I keep trying to do it right,” he confessed during an interview after the record’s release. “But now that I’ve recorded more and played live a lot, it cures you of any preciousness to hit notes right in the middle. I have no problem getting into a (singing) booth and singing a song now, but now I know I am capable and push myself.”
“Finally I’m going to play Gestureland live for you,” Duchovny wrote in an Instagram post announcing the European Tour. See you in November.’
