But it was an entirely different story as the 41-year-old joined her actor spouse at a series of A-list events last week.

Wearing a sleeveless black gown, Keisha sparked concern with her painfully thin figure as she arrived for the 2014 Film Independent Spirit Awards at Santa Monica Beachlast Saturday.
Keeping a tight grip of Forest, it was Keisha's worryingly slender arms that caused the most concern - with her upper arm looking even thinner than her elbow.
According to RadarOnline.com, Keisha, who turns 42 this week, is estimated to have lost around 35lbs (two and a half stone) over the past few years.
And such extreme weight loss at her age could lead to significant health problems, according to The Hampton's Diet author, Dr. Fred Pescatore.
Dr Pescatore told Radar: 'She runs the risk of premature ageing of her heart and bones.
'Most importantly, going up and down like this wreaks havoc on the metabolism and makes it increasingly difficult to continue to stay thin without more and more effort. Possibly to the point of starvation and pills.'
Despite Keisha's weight loss, her tweets suggest that she doesn't hold back when it comes to what she eats.
Junk food appears to be a popular choice for Keisha, with tweets including: 'Morning Morning Taco Tuesdays!!! Endless Possibilities…..' and 'a Pizza store in Burbank who took my order and didn't deliver don't worry(2 hours late) Micellis to the RESCUE and it will TASTE good!'
Another similar tweet read: 'Snickers, Tacos and Fallon wow Sweet Dreams!!!'
Forest and Keisha married in 1996 after meeting on the set of their movie Blown Away.
They have two daughters together, Sonnet and True, while they are also parents to son Ocean and Autumn from previous relationships.
