Word on the British streets is that Idris Elba may be newly single. The actor reportedly broke up with his long-time girlfriend, Naiyana Garth, after two-and-a-half years. The couple have a child together, 22-month-old Winston, and they were sharing a home. Since the split, Idris has moved out of their house and gotten his own flat in South West London.
Things seemed off with the couple when Idris didn’t bring Naiyana, a 28-year-old professional make-up artist, with him to the Screen Actors Guild Awards last month or to the British Film Awards this past Sunday. He opted to take his 13-year-old daughter Isan to the SAG Awards instead, and at the British Film Awards, people were quick to notice that he did not include Naiyana in his acceptance speech. When reporters asked him if he was newly single, he gave a vague response, saying, “That’s the media for you.”
While Naiyana seems to be taking the breakup pretty hard, it looks like Idris may have already moved on to someone new…supermodel Naomi Campbell. The two, who have been friends for a couple years, were spotted together at 1 OAK in New York just a few nights ago. The two of them were seen leaving the club together as well.
Though nothing has been confirmed, it seems like Idris and Naomi are enjoying each other’s company. Do you think these two would make a cute couple?
