Jonathan Rhys Meyers swears he’s sober again, everybody

Jonathan Rhys Meyers has been worrying fans after being snapped stumbling around London guzzling a bottle of vodka and then missing the Cannes premiere of his film “Damascus Cover,” but he wants everyone to know there’s nothing to worry about. And he conveyed that message in clearly the most direct route: via his fiancée’s Instagram account. “I apologize for having a minor relapse and hope that people don’t think too badly of me,” Meyers, who has been to rehab three times, wrote.

“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.”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.”
