Riz Ahmed played stylist at the 2021 Oscars on Sunday, making sure his wife Fatima Farheen Mirza was ready for the red carpet.
The cameras caught Ahmed asking the photographers to pause for a second so that he could fix her hair.
"I'm the official groomer," he quipped as he made sure Mirza's hair was behind her shoulders.
"We were both jostling over the same laptop plug points, like a very modern way of meeting," he added.
Ahmed said he and Mirza got married in a backyard wedding due to the pandemic.
"It was kind of interesting doing it with COVID and everything going on," he said. "Obviously kept it super intimate and socially distant."
