Jane Fonda, 88, is one of the most beloved actresses of our time – but she has been sparking concern about her health for a while now.

Jane Fonda Papped At LAX In A Wheelchair
Earlier this month, the Grace and Frankie star was papped sitting in a wheelchair outside Los Angeles International Airport (LAX), dressed in a luxurious brown fur coat, sunglasses, and gold jewelry. Check out some pics here. Many fans thought she looked "iconic" on social media, but the wheelchair did immediately concern many others.
Despite being spotted in a wheelchair, the Book Club actress doesn't appear to be in a bad way, despite grieving the recent deaths of close friends Rob Reiner and his wife Michele Reiner. Last month, she took to Instagram to say she was "reeling with grief" following the news, adding: "I saw them night before last looking healthy and happy."
According to multiple reports, the Monster-in-Law actress regularly uses wheelchair services at airports to conserve energy. It's also been reported that she sometimes uses a wheelchair in her day-to-day life due to long-term issues related to osteoporosis, which has required hip and knee replacements, as well as for fatigue or mobility support following her battle with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.
