Idris Elba is taking some time away from screens big and small to tackle relationships in a new medium with wife Sabrina Dhowre.
The Luther star and his spouse have signed up for an Audible-exclusive podcast called Coupledom, where they will discuss the trials and tribulations they have faced throughout their relationship.
Idris and Sabrina hope to open up a dialogue about recognising and supporting each personal and/or professional partner's strengths and weaknesses, as well as discussing topics such as arranged marriage, discrimination and representation.

Joining the pair for these frank conversations will be mum-and-daughter duo Kris Jenner and Kim Kardashian, marriage equality campaigners Mary and Sharon Bishop-Baldwin, Bake Off's Nadiya Hussain and husband Abdul, ice cream impresarios Ben & Jerry, and more!

"Coupledom to myself and Idris, means the realm of shared experiences between two partners in life or business, creating extraordinary outcomes," Sabrina has said.
"In our Audible Original podcast, we've truly been able to explore Coupledom through some of the world's most interesting duos for honest, unguarded discussions about all the complexities of living a shared life. I've taken so many lessons from our guests' unique partnerships and I hope listeners of the podcast will be just as inspired as I have been."
In addition to co-hosting Coupledom, Sabrina and Idris will also be partnering with Audible to produce the podcast under the umbrella of their company S'able Labs.
