Riz Ahmed & wife Fatima Farheen Mirza make red carpet debut at Oscars 2021 as he helps fix her hair during photographs
RIZ Ahmed helped fix his wife Fatima Farheen Mirza’s hair while on the Oscars red carpet.
The couple stole the show while attending the prestigious award ceremony on Sunday.
Riz, 38, stayed close to his lady while walking down the red carpet, and made sure she was looking her finest for the cameras.
The Sound of Metal star went for a simple black suit with a matching black shirt underneath, and his 30-year-old wife sported a light blue gown and red heels.
While posing for the photographers, the British actor sweetly fixed Fatima’s hair, as fans swooned over the intimate moment.
“I will never forgive E! for cutting away from this adorable moment between Riz Ahmed and his wife Fatima Farheen Mirza!!!! #Oscars,” one tweeted.
“This is so loving,” another shared while a third gushed: “Relationship Goals.”
Riz revealed in January that he was now married, but didn’t specify the name of his bride.
A few days later he shared that Fatima was the lucky lady in the “secret” quarantine ceremony.
The actor told Jimmy Fallon on The Tonight Show that he did not intend to keep their special day a secret, but that they didn’t interact with social media during the occasion.
“It’s a weird one, isn’t it? I guess because we live in a social media age if you don’t, like, get on the megaphone about stuff it’s like, it’s a secret — but I never know how much is oversharing.
“Like, I’m into matcha lattes, but that’s just never come up. I’m not a secret matcha latte drinker,” he joked.
The Venom star gave a little bit of insight on their big day, as he assured the public that they kept things covid-friendly.
“Obviously, kept it super intimate, and socially distanced. There was just like, hardly anyone there really,” he admitted.
“We did it in a backyard, which is nice in lots of ways. And I think the nicest thing about it was you didn’t have 500 aunties hanging around you, pinching your cheeks.
“No disrespect to the aunties.”
