‘Scandal’ Star Kerry Washington & Her Husband Look Dazzling During Rare Joint Appearance at Fashion Show

Miss Olivia Pope herself was in the building for Prada’s Spring/Summer 2026 Womenswear Fashion Show in Milan, Italy held on September 25, 2025. Kerry Washington sat front row with her husband, 44-year-old NFL player turned filmmaker Nnamdi Asomugha and they both made eye-catching arrivals on the orange carpet ahead of the show.

The pair quietly married in 2013, per People. Every serious “Scandal” fan recalls when the surprise news hit. A few months prior, an unforgettable ad for the ABC hit drama that catapulted Washington to household name status aired during the Oscars, and intrigue about the star’s personal life was at an all-time high.

Both members of the successful couple wore Prada of course. Asomugha came dressed in a brown set. He wore the top open to show a bright white tee, and paired his look with patent leather loafers.

Washington donned a sheer tank top paired with a pleated gray skirt. She carried a white handbag and wore pointy-toed pumps, proving the shoe silhouette isn’t fading away anytime soon.


Friends & Fans Reacted to Kerry Washington’s Prada Look

After Washington shared an Instagram Carousel of photos from the show, which included a selfie with “How We Do” singer Rita Ora, plenty of admirers flooded her comments with love. Ora wrote, “I love you girl. Such good times. Seeing you made my night.”

Stylist and costume designer June Ambrose chimed in, “You look incredible love it and you.”

A fan called the “She Hate Me” actress “The most beautiful,” while another referred to her as “Perfect.”

A few days before the show, Washington gave a sweet shoutout to one of her “Scandal” costars who is now starring on “The Hunting Wives,” Katie Lowes. Lowes played Quinn Perkins, who was one of Olivia’s original “gladiators” employed at her crisis management firm on the show. Washington wrote to her costar, “Happy Birthday to my fave Hunting Wife, the Q of QPA, and my sister, @ktqlowes! I love you so much!”


Kerry Washington Became a Fashion Icon For Her ‘Scandal’ Styles

“Scandal” viewers tuned in each week to see what glamorous fashions Olivia Pope would be rocking as much as to see the explosive chemistry between her character and President Fitz.

Her enviable style even inspired a clothing collection by The Limited, according to Pop Sugar. She told The Wall Street Journal in 2014 when the designs dropped that she co-designed the line with the brand’s head designer and Scandal’s costume designer, Lyn Paolo, whom she called “brilliant.” She said they all worked hard to bring to life the way the high-powered D.C. crisis fixer “lives her identity through her fashion.”

She then talked about how the character-based narratives drove “Scandal” to success. “I think the show does so well across the board because all the characters are three-dimensional. Our characters are complicated human beings dealing with complicated issues. Nobody’s just a caricature,” she explained.
