I am happy to be writing that Irish star Jonathan Rhys Meyers has has brushed off his widely reported shocking relapse and looks happy and healthy again… The actor cut stylish figure as he arrived hand-in-hand stepping out with his with fiancée Mara Lane at the Apollo Theatre in London earlier this week.
Looking more like his suave self that his many admirers are used to seeing, the androgynous heartthrob rocked an edgy double denim ensemble with an unbuttoned shirt and distressed jeans which displayed his muscular physique and vast array of inkings.
Jonathan, who has been open about his struggles with alcohol addiction throughout his career, celebrated his birthday with friends in London days earlier.
The actor worried fans back in May when he was pictured suffering a shock relapse, having battled with alcoholism for years. He was seen walking down the street looking dishevelled while swigging from a bottle of vodka sparking concern.
Previously talking about his relapse, the 38-year-old said: “I apologise to fans and colleagues.
“I am on the mend and thank well wishers and sorry for my disheveled appearance as I was on my way home from a friends and had not changed I feel I made a mistake and feel quite embarrassed but this was just a blip in my recovery otherwise I’m living a healthy life.”
Rhys Meyers is currently promoting his new movie Stonewall, a highly anticipated film which recounts the 1969 police raid of the Stonewall Inn in New York’s Greenwich Village that became one of the defining moments of the gay rights movement.
The film directed by Roland Emmerich and written by Jon Robin Baitz is due to be released in US cinemas in late September.
Good to see my ol’ mate back on track!
