Alicia Vikander exuded glamour in a glitzy green gown as she joined husband Michael Fassbender on the red carpet at the 27th British Independent Film Awards on Sunday.

The Killer actor, 47, let his Tomb Raider star wife, 36, steal the spotlight in her jaw-dropping shimmering dress at London's Roundhouse.

The couple, who welcomed their second child earlier this year, looked more than loved-up as they enjoyed a date night together. 

Alicia and her husband Michael first began dating in late 2014, after they met on the set of their film The Light Between Oceans.

The couple tied the knot in a romantic ceremony three years later, in Ibiza, Spain in October 2017. 

Back in July, Alicia revealed she and Michael had quietly welcomed a second child together.

In an interview for ELLE UK, actress Taylor Russell praised the 35-year-old Oscar winner, saying she was 'so impressed' by Alicia's physical work on their upcoming movie Hope, especially since Alicia had 'literally just had (her) second baby.'

The Swedish star replied, 'All women have such different experiences, and going through it a second time was definitely harder for me.'

She continued: 'But I think training made it easier. Going through those nine months is like a marathon, so it does help if you're strong going into it. 

'It's so physically demanding, and I have so much admiration for any woman who has done it.'

Alicia went on to say that she had portrayed childbirth on-screen four times before experiencing it in real life, adding, 'Your job is to pretend as an actor, but every time I had to give birth, I said to every woman on set, "I'm sorry." I felt like such an imposter.' 

The star kept further details about the couple's second child private. 

The Swedish actress revealed in September 2021 that she had quietly welcomed a baby son with Michael, earlier that year.

Last year, Alicia opened up about the pain she went through after suffering an 'extreme' miscarriage before getting pregnant with her first child.

She spoke out about the 'painful' struggles she faced on her journey to becoming a mother, admitting to The Times that 'it took time' for the couple to conceive their first baby together.

'We have a child now, but it took us time,' she said, before revealing that she had suffered a 'painful, extreme' miscarriage before she got pregnant with her son.

She also compared her experiences to her 2016 movie The Light Between Oceans in which she and Michael played a childless couple who experience two miscarriages and ultimately adopt a baby girl who is lost at sea.

Alicia added: '[The miscarriage] was so extreme, painful to go through and, of course, it made me recall making that film [The Light Between Oceans]. That film has another meaning now.'

The Danish Girl star added: 'Sometimes you go through things that are tough in life and if you have an office job you can step away for a bit.

Leading the arrivals at London's Roundhouse were Alicia, Saoirse Ronan and Ellie Bamber who all looked sensational in metallic gowns.
