Howard Stern has been keeping a low profile amid his show's summer hiatus, but he made an exception for his wife, Beth Ostrosky Stern.

The 72-year-old and Beth, 54, enjoyed a date night at Talk House Bar in the Hamptons for John Mayer's SiriusXM performance on Wednesday, August 26.

Beth captured a sweet selfie of the couple, which she shared on Instagram, and the rare sighting of Howard on her profile sparked a big reaction from her followers.

In the image, Howard is affectionately pressing his cheek against his wife's forehead, and they are both smiling for the camera.

Howard and Beth's love story

Howard and Beth met in 2000

Howard met model and animal activist Beth in 2000 after he'd separated from his first wife, Alison Berns, with whom he shares three grown children.

From the first time Beth saw Howard in real life, she was smitten. Even though she was on a blind date with a guy she'd been set up with, it was Howard who stole her attention. 

"I was 26 at the time," she revealed on Radio Andy, recalling how her date was "horrible" and "obnoxious," and so when her future husband walked in, she turned her focus to him.

"I hated my setup," Beth added; however, she was super excited to see Howard arrive because her dad and brother were also big fans. 

Despite Howard looking like he was "in the grumpiest mood," Beth bowled him over with a chat-up line telling him how beautiful his eyes were.

Beth confessed he was taken aback and added: "He's very shy in person." But they exchanged numbers, and he called her two hours later to invite her over to watch a movie.

"I threw my overalls on, put my baseball cap on, and we have been together ever since," she said.

The pair quietly tied the knot in October 2008 in a restaurant in New York. Kelly Ripa, Mark Consuelos, Barbara Walters, Jimmy Kimmel and Joan Rivers were just some of the celebrities in attendance.

He gushed: "Darling, you know you have given me the best years of my life," and asked: "I'm gonna say to you now in front of all of my best friends, my sweet love, will you marry me again?"

They had a surprise second wedding on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, where former Bachelor star Colton Underwood officiated their marriage.
