Idris Elba's wife Sabrina has revealed her one regret when she attended the wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle - and that was her choice of outfit.

Sabrina Dhowre Elba, 35, who married Idris in 2019, was invited to the wedding as Idris was asked by Prince Harry to DJ at his wedding reception. Speaking on the Walking The Dog podcast with Emily Dean, she revealed that she had worn Gucci, head to toe and now believes it was a "little loud".

But six years on, Sabrina confessed she would do things differently. At the time, Sabrina, wore a white dress under a black knee length coat with the Gucci trademark trim. Sabrina blamed her fashion choice on the fact it was the first time she had been dressed by a brand and was simply over-excited.

She told Emily: "It was actually one of the first times that a big brand was dressing me, and Gucci was dressing, and I was so excited to take whatever. I was like, 'oh my god thank you' and I was genuinely excited. Looking back, I maybe would have worn something different. It was a little loud, maybe." But Emily disagreed and dubbed her a "fashion goddess."

She told Sabrina: "I think what you did was bring a modernity to it, and you were a disruptor and challenging the perceived narrative. You're saying, 'no, it's a wedding, these are my friends, and I'm going to wear what I want to express myself."

The Luther actor's friendship with Prince Harry blossomed after meeting through King Charles III, as part of the Prince's Trust. And since then, Prince Harry attended a few of Idris' parties where he was DJing. While on the Ellen DeGeneres Show, Idris said: "His dad's charity, the Prince's Trust, helped me out as a young actor. So I do a lot work with them, Harry and William... And Harry came to a couple of parties that I deejayed."

He added: "Harry came to a couple of parties that I DJed and he was like, 'What are you doing on [May 19]? I told him nothing and then he asked if I would DJ at his wedding... I was like is this a joke?" Even now, Sabrina claims she still couldn't believe she was on the guest list for one of the world's biggest events.

Other attendees included the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, Oprah Winfrey, George and Amal Clooney and David and Victoria Beckham. The star said she felt her phone vibrating with a hoard of messages from her pals who saw her on television, walking into the wedding venue, arm in arm with Idris.

She explained: "Oh my god, I did not think I would be at that wedding. I kept telling myself it wouldn't be that big of a deal. Then I had like 100 text messages saying, 'oh my god, we can see you on the telly'. Everybody watched that, you can kind of remember where you were when that happened and I was like, 'What am I doing here?' But I had the best time; they're such good people." Her admission comes after she was pictured at the Vuori's flagship store opening in London earlier this week.
