Idris Elba Is Taken + Is He Heading To Fatherhood?

British heartthrob, Idris Elba is already taken! Sorry ladies! The hunk is now officially dating British hair and make-up artist, Naiyana Garth. The 41 year old actor officially appeared with his lady love at this week’s Harper’s Bazaar Women of the Year Awards at Claridge’s Hotel in London and it looks like, she’s expecting!

The pregnancy speculation stem up from Garth’s voluminous figure in that little black dress she had on. Well, though her man didn’t mention anything about that he rather seemed happy by her side donning an eye-catching knee-length turquoise coat. Giving the fact that, the world is just landing on this couple news, sources claim the pair have actually been together for several months.

According to The Sun, ‘They’ve been together for a few months but it’s really ramped up recently. They get on brilliantly and she’s a real hit with his family and friends. Idris is known as a ladies’ man but he’s really not at all. He’d rather have banter at the bar than spend all night grafting on women. Although he doesn’t have to try anyway, women flock to him.’

Strangely, as soon as news broke of their romance, Naiyana‘s Twitter feed reportedly disappeared from the site while her personal web page, Naiyanamakeuphair.com, is now listed as being ‘under construction’.

There are claims that this could turn out to the actor’s best time of his life with him now getting serious with Naiyana after dating for a few months, winning the prestigious Bazaar Man of the Year plus he’s now been now being tipped for an Oscar for his portrayal of Nelson Mandela in the new biopic Mandela: Long Walk To Freedom after starring in two of the hottest TV series on TV, The Wire and Luther.

Speaking previously about getting into character for the movie, Elba told the Daily Mail. U.K that he spent a night on Robben Island, locked in a cell next to the one where Mandela was jailed for 18 years. He said: ‘I wanted the audience to know what it was like once Mandela and his colleagues were jailed and the crowds dissipated.’
