Hollywood actor Jonathan Rhys Meyers has broken his silence over photos that emerged last week of him looking dishevelled and drinking a bottle of vodka in the street.
The Cork actor who has previously battled with alcohol abuse and completed several rehab programmes, took to his fiancée, Mara Lane Instagram account to apologise for his actions.
“Mara and I are thankful for your support and kindness during this time,” the post began.

“I apologize for having a minor relapse and hope that people don’t think too badly of me,” he continued.
“I stopped drinking immediately and it is no reflection on Damascus Cover as I was not meant to attend Cannes this year and I apologize to fans and colleagues,” he added.
“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.”
