Martin Scorsese, 80, added another accolade to his collection as he was honoured at the 2023 WSJ Magazine Innovator Awards in New York City on Wednesday.

The Hollywood director was joined by his daughter Francesca, 23, and his rarely-seen wife Helen Morris, 76.

Helen has battled Parkinson’s disease since being diagnosed in 2000 and looked stylish in an all-white ensemble.

She used a wheelchair to get around with her family and carried a black striped-handbag in her lap.

Meanwhile, his daughter Francesca looked great in a sleeveless black and white dress.

Martin was honoured as the film innovator of the evening and received the award just weeks after the release of The Killers Of The Flower Moon.

The director was also spotted catching up with Timothée Chalamet, who quipped while introducing the veteran movie maker that their first collaboration was a Chanel commercial.

Martin’s appearance comes as he made a personal admission about his wife’s battle, admitting Michael J Fox has helped them a lot.

Michael was honoured with a lifetime achievement award at the Museum of the Moving Image’s Spring Moving Image Awards, and Martin presented it in June.

Speaking of the Back to the Future star, he said: “Michael was a powerhouse; he was made for movies.

“Now if you look at Michael’s filmography, pay attention to the amount of work he’s done since his Parkinson’s diagnosis.

“And along the way, Michael not only started his foundation, which has raised so much money for research and raised just as much awareness, but he also became a real guiding light for so many others with Parkinson’s — that includes my wife, Helen [Morris]. Michael, your support has meant the world to her and to me.”

Helen herself has only spoken out about her Parkinson’s battle in a profile for Talk Magazine in 2000.

She admitted at the time that she only gave herself “one panicky night” when she found out her diagnosis.
