Kit Harington on drinking before kids

Kit Harington, the 'Game of Thrones' star, expressed gratitude for achieving sobriety before becoming a father, stating that it profoundly changed his perspective on life. In a recent GQ interview, he reflected on his struggles with alcohol addiction and self-hatred, revealing that he felt it was 'physically and emotionally impossible' to stop drinking at one point. Harington checked into rehab in 2019 to address his issues with stress and alcohol, particularly after the emotional toll of the series finale. He noted that parenthood has shifted his focus away from self-centeredness, highlighting the transformative effects of raising children. Despite his newfound pride in his sobriety, he acknowledged the possibility of relapse, calling it a 'messy, chaotic' prospect. Harington's journey resonates with other celebrities, such as Tom Holland and Anne Hathaway, who have also shared their experiences with sobriety.
