Idris Elba is spotted for the first time in London after recovering from coronavirus

IDRIS Elba has been spotted back in London for the first time since recovering from coronavirus.

The actor, 47, had plenty of swagger as he went for a walk in blue jeans, a Katharine Hamnett T-shirt and a beanie hat.

The Luther star sported some stubble and finished his look with some unlaced high tops.

Idris recently came under fire from US chat show host Wendy Williams for suggesting a quarantine week to remember the virus’s impact.

He told the Associated Press: “I think that the world should take a week of quarantine each year just to remember this time.

“Remember each other. I really do”

But outspoken Wendy told him to “sit down” as she doesn’t need yearly reminder of  the pandemic because she will never forget.

Last month Idris revealed on Twitter he had for the coronavirus.

He tweeted: “This morning I tested positive for Covid 19.

“I feel ok, I have no symptoms so far but have been isolated since I found out about my possible exposure to the virus.

“Stay home people and be pragmatic. I will keep you updated on how I’m doing. No panic.”

Idris’ 30-year-old wife also contracted the disease.

She told Oprah: “I’m not surprised. As soon as I heard that Idris was potentially exposed I was on my way anyway and I wanted to be with him.

“I think that’s an instinct as a wife you just want to go and take care. We didn’t change the way we interacted.

The couple quarantined, where Idris was shooting a new film.
