Disgraced Blue Angels pilot Scott Laux was spotted for the first time since it emerged he had been removed from the elite Navy stunt squadron.

Marine Maj. Laux, 37, was mysteriously ousted from the team for what the Navy nebulously described as “failing to uphold standards.”

It was then revealed that Blue Angels public affairs officer Danielle Cribb –– whom Laux had described as a mentor on social media –– had previously been let go too, although a source denied to The Post that their removals were related.

With rumors swirling, second-year pilot Laux was seen shirtless Thursday at his home in Pensacola, Florida, alongside his wife Lisa Laux, 36, and both were spotted wearing wedding rings.

Earlier in the day, Laux was seen heading out to grab a bite to eat at a Popeyes restaurant near his home and came out wearing sunglasses, a sky-blue polo and black shorts.

“Scott cut a lonely figure in Popeyes, checking his phone while eating on his own,” an eyewitness said. “He seemed to be in a pensive mood, like he had a lot on his mind.”

Laux’s dismissal from the Blue Angels was revealed after he was missing from the homecoming air show at Naval Air Station Pensacola on Nov. 6.

The squad performed with five rather than its usual six planes for the show, which marked the military installation’s 200th anniversary.

Eagle-eyed observers noted that Laux’s photo and biographical page had been scrubbed from the Blue Angels’ official website and so had Cribb’s.
