He made the revelation while being interviewed by Alison Hammond and Dermot O’Leary on the This Morning sofa on ITV.
He said: “The first time Akshata and I went to a party together it was a Halloween party when we were in the States and she went as a girl guide and I went as Harry Potter.”
It was one of a string of personal revelations which may do little to change Star Wars superfan Mr Sunak’s geeky public image.
He said he preferred Big Brother to I’m A Celebrity and was glued to the Netflix Beckham documentary.
Also, he plumped for Taylor Swift over Britney Spears and, while he enjoyed the family time watching Barbie, found Oppenheimer a better film.
Mr Sunak has previously admitted to being a superfan of Star Wars and even craves a cameo role flying an X-Wing and taking down the Death Star.
Later, the teetotal PM said he had never smoked a cigarette — as he moves to raise the legal age for buying tobacco.
But he told LBC: “It has absolutely no relevance to anything.”
