‘It’s The Voice For Me’: Sabrina Dhowre Elba’s Morning Routine Video Goes Left After Fans Get Distracted by Idris Elba

Fans are always taking notice of Idris Elba and his mysteriously sexy voice, which some prefer over his looks. After voice-over roles in “Finding Dory,” “Sonic the Hedgehog 2,” and EA sports game NBA 2K20, the British actor lent his voice to help promote the lifestyle and wellness brand, S’ABLE Lab, which arrives from spelling their last name backwards. The company founded by Elba and his wife, Sabrina Dhowre Elba, focuses on creating inclusive skin care routines with sustainable ingredients and packaging.

In a video shared on her Instagram Monday, Aug. 1, Sabrina started with her everyday morning routine by looking in the mirror. The Somali-Canadian model appeared in a silk robe while pulling her hair back to wash her face with the S’ABLE Labs Qasil Cleanser.

“Mhhhmm Look at you. Yup, ok brand new day. Go head yeah…beautify yourself,” said her husband in a voiceover for the video. “Splash a bit more on. Rub it in. You know what you’re doing.”

The “Thor” actor continued, “Slow down,” as his wife began applying the Black Seed Toner spray. “OK. Now breathe. Take a look. Strike a pose,” he added before grunting, “You look good.”

In the caption, Sabrina wrote, “My new theme song. Thanks for the motivation @idriselba. Try this audio on your routine. @sable.labs.”

Fans in the comments applauded the Elbas for supporting each other’s endeavors and inspiring others with their couple aesthetic.

“Best Husband Ever.”

“A loved Wifey.”

“It’s the voice for me.”

“Dris’ and Mrs. Dris.. couple goals. Love how you support each other.”

“Audio saved.”

One woman respectfully asked, “Can @idriselba do mine? I just got my cleanser.” Sabrina responded from the company’s personal Instagram saying, “We’d love to see your cleanser routine using this audio.”

Idris and Sabrina Dhowre Elba have been married for nearly three years after meeting in Vancouver in 2017. The Hollywood power couple regularly open up about their relationship on their “Coupledom” podcast.

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
