Peter Kay is making his way back into the public eye, and fans are loving every second of it.

The fan-favorite Car Share comedian memorably stepped out of the spotlight after announcing he would be cancelling a string of his shows in 2017 due to "unforeseen family circumstances." People were understandably upset and very worried for the actor in what seemed to be his time in need.

But now, Peter has just made his first public appearance in about eight months, and he looks very happy! As reported by Heart.co, the 46-year-old funny man was photographed backstage at a live show of Nativity! The Musical in London. Debbie Isitt shared the group shot, clearly excited at Peter's appearance as she wrote, "So lovely to see the brilliant comic genius Peter Kay and his lovely family
@nativityuk tonight for our final show! What a lovely surprise for us all!"

Debbie's replies section blew up with support for Peter, with one writing, "Bet he's a right lovely man. Great to see him alive and well!"

We're happy to see Peter and smiling and hope to see more of him soon!
