Sabrina Elba revealed how she and her husband of more than two years, Idris Elba, successfully maintain a healthy marriage.
Speaking to the "Just the Sip!" podcast, Sabrina offered relationship advice to listeners by looking back at her own love story.
She and Idris met in 2017, with the former Miss Vancouver revealing that they met at "a jazz bar" when she was out celebrating a friend's birthday. Sabrina revealed her friend clocked Idris first and wanted to chat him up, so Sabrina took on "wing-man" duties.

"I'm like, 'Nope, excuse me, that's wrong! I'm trying to be a good friend," she said with a laugh, but admitted she was taken by her future husband's advances.
"We had the best conversation," she dished. "We talked all night, all the next day. We were inseparable after that."
A year later, Idris proposed and they tied the knot in April 2019. "When it's meant to happen, it's meant to happen," she said. "If you find your one, they're your one."
While dishing about the secret of maintaining a strong relationship, Sabrina shared, "Me and Idris just get along so well... Our values are connected, we have the same interests, we have the same comedy sense. Just so many things aligned."
It also helps that her mother approves of her son-in-law.

It would be their first child together. Idris has two children from two prior relationships; Isan, 19, and Winston, seven.
