Kit Harington, the $8.8 million star of "Game of Thrones" has been admitted to a rehabilitation clinic. The wrapping up of filming, for the world-famous TV series, destroyed him. The actor accumulated too much stress, which he tried to keep at bay with alcohol. The situation was getting worse and so the decision was made for an immediate rehab. In the clinic, Kit Harington's wife Leslie Rose was with him to give him all the support he needed. According to Daily Mail, it seems that Harington cried after reading the ending of "Game of Thrones."
Harington's kit collapses from stress and alcohol
No one could have imagined such a thing.
Kit Harington, the undisputed star of "Game of Thrones," couldn't handle the weight of the TV Series finale and the stress accumulated from the exhausting rhythms of shooting. Life on set is really hard. It seems that the actor was found several times in a state of drunkenness. In particular, a bar owner said he saw Kit playing "Killer," nervously and repetitively, years ago while drinking one glass of whiskey behind the other. His condition was so pitiful that he was asked to leave the bar.
Now, in 2019, Harington has fallen back into the grip of alcohol. The 32-year-old actor went to a Swiss clinic to find his own calm and balance. It's a super clinic, as the price list is $95,000+ a month.
His wife Leslie, whom he met on the set of "Game of Thrones," is next door to Kit.
Kit Harington in rehab after the final of 'GoT'
The latest episode of "Game of Thrones" aired on May 19, leaving millions of fans amazed. A month ago, Jon Snow's lead actor entered the clinic. The Harington agent has stated that this period will be useful for Kit to work on some personal matters and to find himself again.
It seems that the Harington crisis came about as a result of the end of "GoT".The documentary that showed the actor crying while reading the script of the last episode of "Game of Thrones" caused a stir. Kit wasn't prepared for those unexpected scenes he was supposed to shoot. It was inconceivable for him to kill Daenerys.
Unlike other of his colleagues, Harington is not a lover of social networks and fan gatherings.
Being Jon Snow isn't as easy as it sounds. The actor had to follow the production guidelines scrupulously, even in terms of physical appearance. For example, Kit was prevented from cutting his hair. The stress was unbearable. Harington said that during the shooting of "Game of Thrones" he had to spend six months in Iceland and Belfast, where the sun went down at 16:00. The same would have led him to abuse alcohol. Now, Kit Harington fans are hoping he will recover soon and return to being a happy man.
