Jonathan Rhys Meyers Hospitalized in Reported Suicide Attempt

Irish actor Jonathan Rhys Meyers, 33, has been hospitalized in London- reportedly after he attempted suicide.

Brit media sources say Rhys Meyers has been in and out of rehab five times for a “drink problem.” Emergency services were dispatched to the actor’s home, and The Sun says Rhys Meyers refused assistance for 30 minutes after paramedics arrived and found him slumped on the floor. Finally, the EMTs were forced to call police to persuade him to accept help.

A source- whose relation to the incident was not disclosed- told the paper:

“This is very sad. It was the opinion of those present that he tried to take his life.”

Following the incident Tuesday night, The Sun contacted police. Although they did not mention the actor by name, they confirmed:

“Officers were called by London Ambulance Service following reports of a man refusing treatment. The man was taken to hospital.”

When he left, Rhys Meyers told press he had “no comment” on the incident.
