Idris Elba Recalls Falling 'Head Over Heels' for Wife Sabrina Dhowre | PEOPLE

Idris Elba wasn't looking for marriage before meeting model (and future wife) Sabrina Dhowre.
"We started dating and I fell head over heels," the actor, 48, recalls to PEOPLE in this week's issue of first encountering Sabrina in 2017 at a Vancouver jazz bar. "Everyone was like, 'Hey man, you seem so much happier.' I didn't realize I was, but the truth is that it really sparked a lot of conversations around how a partnership can bring out the best in you."

Lucky for you you’re not the one married to him

"Sort of fell head over heels" this sounds strange

[@janetsims180]

He was trying to find the right words, but wasn't quite sure if he was saying it correctly. I'm pretty certain he's "head over heels" for his wife. It sure looks like it anyways.

[@amydiakhate843]

He seems to be more in love than she is.

[@darshanialovesu]
