His shady lady! Gentleman Damien Lewis gives wife Helen McCrory his sunglasses so she doesn't squint on the Emmys red carpet
He played an antihero prepared to blow up his fellow citizens in Homeland.
But Damien Lewis proved he is much more of a gentleman in real life after he gave his wife Helen McCrory his sunglasses so she did not have to squint on the Emmys red carpet on Sunday.
The star was left awkwardly screwing up his face while she looked a million dollars at the Hollywood glamour event.
The glare of the public eye: Damien Lewis was squinting on the red carpet after giving wife Helen McCrory his sunglasses
The leading man showed his chivalry by handing over his glasses - and given Southern California's heatwave it was quite the sacrifice.
Damien, 44, was looking dapper in a navy suit, white shirt, black tie and leather shoes.
However he was outshone by his glamorous wife, 47, who looked fabulous in a ruffled pink and black dress.
The squinting star will have to up his game if rumours he could be the next 007 ever come to fruition.

It was revealed in June Damien could be the next James Bond, after a flurry of bets led to the odds being slashed on him succeeding Daniel Craig.
The Wolf Hall actor, who studied at Eton, was made second favourite for the role as bookmakers have slashed the odds from 25/1 to 3/1 after a flurry of bets were made on the actor.
Idris Elba is the favourite to take on the role of 007, with William Hill spokesman Rupert Adams telling the Daily Telegraph: ‘This is an unprecedented gamble, as for no apparent reason we have seen bets of up to £200 on Damian Lewis being named as the next Bond. This might well be significant.’
