Actor Idris Elba has reportedly admitted that finding out the son he had longed for wasn't his was the most "tragic" moment of his life.

The 41-year old 'Luther' actor said that even though the boy looked nothing like him, "it wasn't immediately obvious" that his girlfriend, who he met in Florida and dated for a few years, had cheated on him, Metro.co.uk reported.

'The Wire' star said that the celebration of having a son from a man's perspective is massive, and to be given that and then have it taken away so harshly was like taking a full-on punch in the face.

 

He added that though it was tragic, he wasn't knocked out, and has been cautious about everything ever since the incident.
