Lenny Henry squirms as The Assembly grills him on his relationship

Sir Lenny Henry was taken aback as The Assembly asked him a question about his 13-year relationship.

The actor and comedian, 67, appeared on the latest episode of the ITV show, which sees a group of neurodivergent people interview a celebrity.

Mikey asked Sir Lenny how he first met his partner, Lisa Makin. Sir Lenny explained that the pair met when she was a producer on a production of Othello that he starred in.

The interviewer went on to ask whether Sir Lenny had "put a ring on it," prompting him to hold his head in his hands.
