Martin Short
Grabs Dinner with J.J. Abrams …
First Sighting Since Daughter’s Death
Published
Martin Short hasn’t been seen much since his daughter Katherine‘s tragic death by suicide … but he stepped out Friday evening for dinner with a talented Hollywood director.
The longtime comic actor made an appearance in Santa Monica … wearing a neat black blazer over a button-down shirt.
Photogs got him jumping into a car driven by “Lost” co-creator J.J. Abrams, who is a longtime friend of Short’s.
Short didn’t seem his usual chipper self — no smile on his face as he sat in the passenger seat.
Of course, Short hasn’t had much to smile about recently … on top of losing longtime friend Catherine O’Hara back in January, his daughter died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound last month.
Katherine — who changed her name to Katherine Hartley to avoid being harassed by her social work clients — revealed her struggles with mental health issues in the past.
After her death, Short and his pal Steve Martin postponed shows their comedic tour … though they plan on getting back on the road April 11.
Katherine was 42.
RIP
