Damian Lewis makes rare appearance with children at London Fashion Week
Damian Lewis made a rare and stylish appearance with his two children at London Fashion Week.
The Homeland actor, 54, looked dapper rocking a striped suit at the Burberry event alongsidehis daughter Manon, 18, and son Gulliver, 16, who he welcomed with his late wife Helen McCrory.
Manon looked chic in a trench coat over grey trousers, complete with a green handbag.
While Gulliver sported a navy coat over striped trousers.
In an Instagram post proud dad Damian thanked his children for being the best company at the show.
He penned: ‘Thank you @burberry for a stunning collection tonight and a beautiful piece of theatre and thank you @theannawintour for the best seat in the house and thank you Leslie Manville for winking at me when you walked instead of keeping a straight face and thank you Gully and @manonmccrory for being the best crew.’
Since 2022, Damian has been in a relationship with Alison Mosshart, who is best known as a singer for the rock band The Kills.
They first met in London through mutual friends, with their romance coming just over a year after the death of the actor’s wife Helen following a private breast cancer battle.
The actress, best known for her performances as Narcissa Malfoy in the Harry Potter franchise and Aunt Polly on hit BBC drama Peaky Blinders, was 52 when she died.
Writing a moving tribute to his late wife shortly after her death, Damian revealed that she had ‘encouraged’ him and their teenage children Manon and Gulliver ‘to live fully, take opportunities, have adventures’.

The actor wrote at the time: ‘Only a couple of weeks ago she said to us from her bed, “I want Daddy to have girlfriends, lots of them, you must all love again, love isn’t possessive, but you know, Damian, try at least to get through the funeral without snogging someone.”‘
He described her as ‘utterly heroic in her illness’ and spoke about her ‘bravery’ towards the end of her life.
Damian continued: ‘She has shone more brightly in the last months than you would imagine even the brightest star could shine. In life, too, we had to rise to meet her.
‘But her greatest and most exquisite act of bravery and generosity has been to “normalise” her death. She’s shown no fear, no bitterness, no self-pity, only armed us with the courage to go on and insisted that no one be sad, because she is happy.
‘I’m staggered by her. She’s been a meteor in our life.’
