Tom Hardyis known for his epic portrayal of Britain’s most dangerous criminal Charles Bronson, and the vile Kray twins, among others. But little does the world know the British actor has had more than a few run-ins with the law himself. His past behavior has had him go through extreme troubles to obtain a visa to work in the United States. Each time he lands a project in the USA, theDark Knightstar needs to visit the US Embassy in London. Thanks to extreme drug abuse, excessive drinking, illegal arms possession, and numerous other charges, Hardy has spent several nights in prison. As he puts it,
“I was an obnoxious, trouble-making lunatic. Not comfortable in my own skin and displacing that into the world. A complete twat. A knobhead.”
Describing acting as his salvation, Hardy is not shy to talk about his past self. Regretting his past behavior, he is more than thankful for the moment of clarity that pushed him to cease to be the person he was.

Prison Time Wasn’t The Only Thing Tom Hardy Had To Deal With
Back when he was just 13, Hardy, unfortunately, found himself addicted to crack and other substances. His addiction became even worse after the success of his movieStar Trek: Nemesis. Spiraling out of control, there were more than a few times when he found himself in unknown places, injured, and high on drugs. As his first marriage ended in an inevitable divorce due to his addiction, he finally went to rehab, with his parents’ help.
Thanks to his mess of a life, Hardy fared even worse romantically. Describing himself as a struggle to deal with, he recalls how he was a serial boyfriend, requiring attention at all times. Even his movie sets haven’t been free from controversies, given his rocky relationship with his co-starsShia LaBeoufandCharlize Theron.
Now on the road to recovery, he is a regular at counseling, therapy, and almost anything that would help him become the right man.
We sincerely applaud Tom Hardy for becoming the person he is now and overcoming all that he has.
