Kit Harington admits he felt he needed to ‘grow the f*** up’ Game Of Thrones ended.
The 32-year-old had previously checked himself into a treatment facility after the HBO series concluded its eighth and final season earlier this year.
The actor reportedly told friends he needed to ‘grow up’, according to a source from Us Weekly.
Kit allegedly made the revelation to friends at an Emmy Awards afterparty on the 22 September, with the source saying: ‘[A group of people were talking] about how filming Game Of Thrones for 10 years was such a long time.
‘He said: “I felt like 15!” Kit joked about how long life is. The group started talking about their ages. Kit said he’s 32, and told them he realised he needed to grow the f*** up at 32.’
The source also stated that the actor, who played Jon Snow in the series, later ‘joked about becoming sober and having some crazy times’.
‘He said he’s from Worcestershire, which is famous for their sauce, and then added with a laugh: “And now apparently me,”’ the insider added.
Kit previously checked into Connecticut’s Prive-Swiss wellness facility to work on ‘personal issues’ in May, just as Game Of Thrones was wrapping up its final season.
A representative later confirmed the news, stating: ‘Kit has decided to utiltise this break in his schedule as an opportunity to spend some time at a wellness retreat to work on some personal issues.’
The actor reportedly ‘took pride’ in his decision to seek help, according to a source from Page Six.
‘If seeing Kit get help can help anyone struggling, that’s fantastic. There’s no shame at all to this,’ the source stated.
