Jonathan Rhys Meyers has apologised for his 'embarrassing relapse'. He's spoken out after he was pictured looking worse for wear on a London street, drinking from a bottle of vodka.
The actor has used his partner's Instagram page to thank fans for their ''support'' and asked them not to think ''badly'' of him.
He wrote: "Mara and I are thankful for your support and kindness during this time. I apologise for having a minor relapse and hope that people don't think too badly of me. 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. Love and blessings."
