Shawn was said to be moving out of a house, with trucks taking away luggage.
She could be seen wearing a large straw hat, jeans, and a striped gray shirt.
Shawn also appeared to have a cut on her chin and bruising by one of her eyes, according to a neighbor on the scene.
“She looked very tired, and it seemed like she was stressed out,” an eyewitness told In Touch.
“It was hard to recognize her like she’d aged 10 years.
“I had a hard time recognizing her. And the bruising on her face was sad to see. Who knows what happened there.”
‘I’M STILL PROCESSING’
Shawn has been out of the limelight since her late husband, Larry, died from sepsis on January 23, 2021.
The couple shared two sons Chance, 25, and Cannon, 24.
After Larry’s funeral, Shawn revealed that the whole family had said their farewells to the TV icon.
“We all, it was just family, we wore Larry’s suspenders, every one of us.”
The actress said that Larry was laid to rest in a “beautiful” ceremony that was only open to family.
“We laid him to rest this morning. And in the Jewish faith, they do it very quickly, so you almost don’t have time to, for me, to process,” the mother of three told Entertainment Tonight at the time.
“I’m still processing. And as are the boys, the whole family is just, you know, yeah.”
Larry’s estranged wife added a sentimental note: “Death is maybe the great equalizer, I think.
“When you experience it with people who we really, really love, all the other noise and the nonsense that could be surrounding, it just goes away and the family goes close together. And that’s what happened.
“You know, it was beautiful,” she finished.
Larry married Shawn on September 5, 1997, his eighth marriage to seven different women over five decades.
Larry filed for divorce from Shawn in 2010, though he retracted the paperwork shortly after.
He filed once again, nine years later, in August of 2019 citing irreconcilable differences following 22 years of marriage.
The U.S. Sun has reached out to Shawn King for comment.
