Dame Helen Mirren looked fondly at her husband Taylor Hackford while attending the American French Film Festival awards ceremony in Neuilly-sur-Seine on Wednesday.
The British actress and Santa Barbara-born filmmaker – both 77 – originally met in 1986 and will celebrate an impressive 25th wedding anniversary on December 31.
Taylor donned a black double breasted suit while Helen flashed her undergarments in a translucent black ensemble as they posed on the black carpet at France’s SACEM (Society of Authors, Composers and Publishers of Music).

Mirren donned a black headband over her long white locks and she wore a matching lace jacket over a tea-length mesh dress, cranberry tights and baroque style boots selected by stylist Rachel Fanconi.
Hackford plans for direction the L’Oréal Paris brand ambassador as a femme fatale enforcer dubbed ‘The Spider’ in his upcoming detective noir thriller Sniff alongside Al Pacino, Morgan Freeman and Danny DeVito.
The two-time Grammy winner — who has 43-year-old son Alexander — is still mourning the loss of his eldest son Rio, who died of uveal melanoma on April 14 at age 51.
Helen – who is only a Grammy away from elite EGOT status – presents the fourth season of six episodes of acclaimed mockumentary series Documentary Now!, which airs Wednesday on IFC and AMC+.
