In the first snap, Al wore a light yellow blazer with a pair of black pants and a matching tie as well as a crisp white shirt.

Deborah stood beside her husband with a bright smile in a strapless ombre dress.

The dress flowed from a peachy pink to a cream color and light blue at the bottom, reminiscent of a pastel Bomb Pop and a great choice for springtime.

The ombre dress showcased Deborah's toned arms, the result of her many trips to the gym.

Fans couldn't get enough of the looks, as Al "cleaned up well," according to a fan.

One wrote: "You two look amazing! Deborah's dress is so beautiful!"

Another commented: "Love your dress. You both look wonderful."

A third wrote: "Stunning. And Deborah looks amazing as always. She dresses so fun and looks 25. Beautiful."

JOKER ROKER

Meanwhile, Al mocked co-host Craig Melvin during a celebrity interview by showing an old photo of him playing a violin while wearing a turtleneck.

On Tuesday's episode of Today with Hoda & Jenna, the hosts chatted with actors Lucy Boynton and Kelvin Harrison Jr. about the film Chevalier.

The film follows the son of a slave and French plantation owner who rises to great heights in French society as a violinist-composer and fencer.

Al had a question for Kelvin about the multiple scenes in which he is seen playing violin in the movie.

He asked: "So Kelvin, you come from a musical background and family, but this role, you know, required some really intense violin training. How did you approach that?"

Kelvin replied: "Well, I called my dad. I was like, my dad's a classically-trained musician," he said with a laugh.

He explained how his father helped him learn more about playing the violin to prepare for the role.

He had an intense schedule that took over five months to prepare for the role.

Kelvin added that he hated the violin when he was younger.

"We have a picture of you as a young lad playing the violin," Al said to the actor, and showed the photo.

The hosts thought it was a cute picture.

"You know, Kelvin, take a look at a picture of another violin player," Al joked as the screen shifted to an old photo of Craig Melvin.

The photo shows Craig wearing a knowing grin while poised to play his violin.

He's wearing a long-sleeved black shirt with a white turtleneck beneath it.

It's a photo that's very much a product of the times when it was taken, likely in the '80s.

"Oh wow," Kelvin replied in shock.

Craig joked "Oh wow, can I get some respect? Why is the reaction 'oh, wow'?"

The hosts and guests couldn't stop laughing.

Al said of the photo: "We put that picture up every chance we get."

The hosts kept laughing before moving on during the interview.

ROVING ROKER

Meanwhile, Al revealed that he's leaving Today's studio for a new project.

The TV star is heading to the west coast "with a little vino" for the Start Today Challenge.

On Monday, Al posted a video to his Instagram.

"Hey, everybody. I hope you are having a great afternoon," the 68-year-old said, as he took a stroll in Central Park.

"The weather is spectacular. I'm out here in the park, getting some steps in, taking my time."

Al continued: "I hope you will be joining us in Sonoma for our first ever Start Today Wellness get-together.

"We've got Alex and Felix. We've got Stephanie Mansour, all kinds of Sonoma chefs. All of that and more, and of course, maybe a little vino."

The Today meteorologist chuckled as he told his followers to have a great day.

"Don't forget, on Friday, coming up, Start Today, live from Sonoma," he said.

"Well, almost live. Anyway, talk to you soon."

The Start Today challenge encourages the morning show viewers to get active and walk a little bit each day.

NOT AL RIGHT?

Although Al is in great shape, he struggled a bit to get up off the floor earlier this week.

During Monday's episode of Today, Al was in for a rude awakening after he chose to participate in a workout on-air.

Al and his co-hosts Dylan Dreyer, 41, Craig Melvin, 43, and Jacob Soboroff, 40, exercised alongside SoulCycle's Senior Master Instructor Laurie Cole for their fitness segment Start Today.

Laurie showed the moderators the benefits of incorporating foam rollers into an exercise regimen.

Following the health coach, the NBC personalities executed the same foam roller exercises that she demonstrated.

The talk show team kept up with Laurie the best they could; however, each of them seemed to struggle when it came to doing the lunges.

Things became increasingly more difficult for the anchors, especially Al when Laurie had them do the quad roll.

A motion where you balance on your forearms, lifting your knees up off the ground as you use your body to move the roller back and forth underneath you.

While Dylan, Jacob, and Craig managed to pull themselves up to a sitting position on their knees after stretching their body out, the weatherman remained horizontal.

Attempting not to cause alarm or concern, he made his struggles with getting up appear as if it was intentional.

"I'm just gonna stay down here; it's good," Al told everyone on stage.
