Amid the sun-drenched canals and historic palazzos of Venice, Idris Elba and his wife Sabrina Dhowre were a picture of marital bliss, putting on a very public and affectionate display that left little room for speculation.
The actor, 51, and the model, 34, were captured sharing multiple passionate kisses during a boat tour of the iconic Italian city, seemingly in their own world despite the picturesque surroundings. Their romantic escapade comes just days after Elba's 'Silo' co-star, Rebecca Ferguson, was also photographed in Venice, though separately.
Dhowre looked effortlessly chic in a simple white vest top and denim shorts, accessorising with oversized sunglasses. Elba, meanwhile, kept it cool in a dark short-sleeved shirt and matching trousers, embracing the holiday spirit.
A Display of Devotion
The couple's affectionate behaviour included:
- Leaning in for several tender kisses on their water taxi.
- Sharing warm embraces as they took in the stunning views.
- Appearing completely relaxed and unfazed by the potential for paparazzi shots.
This loved-up display effectively quashes any lingering rumours about the state of their marriage, which began when Ferguson was spotted in the same city following their work together on the Apple TV+ series.
Life Away from the Rumour Mill
Elba and Dhowre, who tied the knot in a lavish ceremony in Morocco in 2019, have consistently presented a united front. Their Venetian holiday appears to be a deliberate effort to focus on their own time together, away from the pressures of Hollywood and the gossip columns.
The 'Luther' star has always been fiercely private about his family life, making this public display of affection a significant and telling moment for the couple's fans and followers.
