The couple were seen taking a stroll through a flea market in Santa Monica, California, on Sunday.

The two were seen sporting the same color combination, with Pam wearing blue high-waisted jeans, a white blouse, and sneakers.

Similarly, Mark was seen wearing navy blue shorts, a white tee, and flip-flops.

Unlike Mark, who continues to act, Pam has taken a step back from the limelight.

Pam's last acting role dates back to 2021, when she had a seven-episode stint on NCIS alongside her husband.

Before that, Pam was on an episode of the 2016 series The Odd Couple.

In an interview with Entertainment Tonight that year, Pam said she was stepping back from acting to parent their two children, Sean and Ty.

"I don't think two people can work all the time in show business and stay married," she said.

"I was in a number one show. I had my own deal...

"I did everything you can do in this business, and then I had children and it's like, 'I'm not going to chase this fame thing.'"

DECADES OF LOVE

Mark and Pam have been married for nearly four decades. The two tied the knot on March 21, 1987.

They welcomed their first son, Sean Harmon, on April 25, 1988, followed by their son, Ty Christain Harman, on June 25, 1992.

Despite Pam and Mark's famed Hollywood careers, the two decided to keep their family away from the public eye.

Speaking with People last year, Mark spoke on his choice to be a series regular for NCIS.

"The decision to do NCIS is because I was traveling a lot doing movies and other things and I was trying to stay home more with a young family.

"It was important to be able to make pancakes on Saturday morning."

While the longtime couple kept their family away from Hollywood fame, as Sean and Ty grew older, the two followed in their family's footsteps.

NCIS AND BEYOND

While Mark took on the role of Leroy Jethro Gibbs, the beloved NCIS alum departed from the show after season 19.

At the time, showrunner Steve Binder revealed that Mark would make guest appearances in future seasons.

"As an executive producer and dear friend, Mark continues to be an integral part of the fabric of the show," Steve said in a statement.

"Our north star has always been staying true to our characters, and that truth has always guided the stories we tell and where those characters go.

"So regarding the future of Gibbs, as long-time fans of the show may have noticed over the years…never count Leroy Jethro Gibbs out."
