Brian Wilson steps out to celebrate The Beach Boys and some «Good Vibrations». On Tuesday, May 21, the musician made a rare public appearance at the world premiere of a new documentary about the group on Disney+.
The event, held at the Chinese Theatre in Hollywood, allowed Brian, 81, to reunite with several original members of The Beach Boys, including Mike Love, 83, Bruce Johnston, 81, Al Jardine, 81, David Marks, 75, and Blondie Chaplin, 72. According to Entertainment Tonight, who was present at the premiere, Brian received a standing ovation when he arrived.
«He's doing well», - Brian’s daughter Carnie Wilson shared with ET on the red carpet. «He's in physical therapy every day. I cook for him, he spends a lot of time right now with his kids, his family. I’m just happy he’s here tonight».
Another of Brian’s daughters, Wendy Wilson, added: «I think he’s doing really well considering the circumstances he’s going through right now. But you know, he’s a survivor. That’s my dad. He’s very strong, very resilient. I’m glad he came tonight and I think he’s really going to enjoy it».
Brian’s rare appearance comes after his family filed for conservatorship in February following the death of the musician’s wife, Melinda Ledbetter Wilson, in January. According to court documents obtained by PEOPLE, Brian suffers from «neurocognitive disorder (e.g., dementia)», - which hinders his ability to properly care for himself.
During the premiere this week, Brian was able not only to reunite with his Beach Boys colleagues but also to see his first wife, Marilyn Wilson-Rutherford. (The couple welcomed Carnie and Wendy during their marriage, which ended in 1981. Brian later married Melinda in 1995 and adopted five children).
«Nothing touches my heart more than seeing my mom and dad tell each other they love each other. Today they were able to do that», - Carnie, 56, wrote on Instagram. «They've been divorced for many years, and my mom has a wonderful husband Daniel… but they are my parents forever, and these moments make life even more beautiful 💕💕 Thank you dear @ambhalove for this photo».
After watching the documentary about The Beach Boys, Carnie also reflected on her father’s career and everything he has achieved on and off the stage.
«I sat behind my dad @brianwilsonlive tonight as we watched the new documentary about The Beach Boys @disneyplus», - she shared on Instagram. «I saw him watching himself, and I had to take this picture because it was incredible to see him look at his own history. I am proud of all The Beach Boys for their talent and gifts they have given to the world. I love you, dad, and I am proud to be your daughter».
