David Letterman News: Retired Host Sports Bigger Frame and a Beard

Sporting a long beard and a bigger frame, David Letterman was recently spotted on the Caribbean island of St. Barts as enjoying a jog.

On Tuesday, photos of Letterman emerged online, giving fans the startled look as they browsed through images of the now retired CBS host. According to CNN, the images reveal a bald and bigger Letterman, who also featured a heavy beard. While many of his fans think he has changed over the past months, he gave a smirk to the cameras, somehow giving the world an idea that he is enjoying his retirement despite the changes his body is experiencing.

10 months ago, the 68-year-old host said goodbye to his 33 years on national TV. Ever since he left television, he has been keeping away from the public though he did make a few appearances including his participation in Michael J. Fox's event to fight Parkinson's disease last November.
