Sting was every inch the proud husband as he supported his wife Trudie Styler at the Globo d’Oro Awards in Rome on Wednesday.
The music legend, 72, cut a dapper figure as he joined the director, 70, on the red carpet, before she was honoured with the Best Documentary prize.
Trudie, who married Sting in 1992, opted for an elegant cream lace dress as she prepared to accept the award for her film Posso Entrare? An Ode to Naples.
The film detailed Trudie and Sting’s passion for Italy, with the actress detailing her history with the country at the ceremony, during an interview with PEOPLE.
She said: ‘Sting and I fell in love with Italy many years ago — so much so that after one of our kids was born near Pisa, we spent years looking for a home for us all. Italy has always been incredibly kind to us.

‘Since the 1980s when I made films here in Rome at Cinecittà, then Sting wrote one of his most emotional albums near Pisa the year after his parents died, and at the same time I gave birth to one of our kids, Italy has a special place in our hearts for many reasons.’
Sting and Trudie are parents to four children, Mickey, 40, Jake, 39, Eliot, 33, and Giacomo, 28, while The Police frontman also shares son Joe, 47, and daughter Fuschia, 42, with ex Frances Tomelty.
Detailing how the family juggles Trudy and Sting’s busy work schedules, she said they are ‘proud’ of them.
She said: ‘They appreciate that we are busy and fulfilled. The kids all have their own paths and careers and they’ve got good work ethics, so we’re proud of them for that.’
The outing comes after the couple attended the Ivor Novello Awards, where Sting was awarded with a Fellowship which is the highest honour the Academy bestows.
Speaking on the carpet, the British rocker said he ‘loves’ the Ivors Academy and was ‘delighted’ to be ‘granted this wonderful honour’.
He said: ‘The last time I was here I got a lifetime achievement award which I thought was a bit premature…
‘But the fellowship was obviously beyond lifetime and it sounds a bit like Lord Of The Rings, but I think there are more duties attached to a fellowship.
