Kit Harington and Rose Leslie

Rose Leslie, best known for her role as Ygritte in Game of Thrones, was on the cover of Harper’s Bazaar and in an interview she talked about her husband Kit Harington’s struggle with alcohol addiction.

The passion of Harington, who played one of the main roles in the same series – Jon Snow, became known in 2019 after the end of the filming of the project. According to Leslie, the actor addressed this issue by joining Alcoholics Anonymous.

She admitted that her husband made the decision to fight addiction himself.

Kit Harington’s problems with alcoholism began while he was working on the Game of Thrones project: He starred in the series for about 10 years, and for him it was a serious test. In an interview, she admitted that what happened to her during filming was just as “traumatic” after the end of the project. Harington added that he felt like a terrible person and was ashamed of himself.

After the end of the shooting, she took a break from her acting career for a year and went to a rehabilitation center where she was treated for alcohol addiction and depression.

Apparently, Kit Harington managed to cope with his problem: Rose recorded that they had been sober for several years.
