Riz Ahmed has played countless roles on screen, but on Oscar night, he just about earned an award for his role as husband. Because, while most people were looking at him on the red carpet, he was looking out for his new wife — and her hair.
In January, Ahmed revealed that he had married New York Times best-selling author Fatima Farheen Mirza “not very long ago.” The actor made the announcement during an appearance on the “Grounded with Louis Theroux” podcast. “I mean, I guess I don’t really feel it’s generally that relevant, so I don’t delve into my personal life or my dating history or even family life much,” he said.
