Sir Anthony Hopkins’ Daughter Finally Confirms the Rumours

[Corgis]

My favorite actor ever. Hope he does get reconciled with his daughter. Cannot beat this Welsh actor. Love you Anthony.

[gailoborland]

What a charming man. I observed him being so polite and friendly to autograph seekers whilst trying to have a quiet
coffee with his wife and a few friends (I think) whilst visiting our little hilltop town of Cortona in Tuscany, last year.
Then they got into their people carrier, and he waved graciously as they drove away. Such a thrill. Grazie mille!

Sir Anthony Hopkins, is on par with Richard Burton as the best ever actor from Wales.
I once had the honour of hearing a ‘share/talk’ from one of his long term friends I met in recovery.
He spoke so humbly, and I stole one of his humorous answers to being offered a drink.
He was on a flight on a Thursday, the hostess offered him his free glass of champagne…his reply?
‘No thank you dear, I have to be in work on Monday!’ Class.
I have an estranged relationship with my daughter and the AA Big Book has a sentence that the children of alcoholics are often difficult and blameless…this is very true.
He will always be remembered for his acting skills and rightly so.
Just For Today, Tony
God bless you ❤

Hopkins' estrangement from his daughter is sad, but it is a matter entirely between him and his daughter, and is none of the public's business. And it takes nothing away from his talent as an actor.

And exactly what "rumors" did his daughter confirm? He's made no secret of it!

[wendyfletcher]

Wonderful man. Sober for many years. It is his daughter’s loss as his redemption is worth forgiveness.

[WendyCosgriff-ld]

Great actor... so humble.... Really enjoy his art!!! Talented man.

Sir Anthony is one of the greatest actors. His personal life is none of our business. I am an adoptee. I was born + adopted in Liverpool, England. My mother chose to give me away to strangers. I was 1-month old. In my 30s I obtained my original Birth Certificate. In my 60s I found my KEPT half-siblings. I found my father's name but he does not exist as he should be on the Alien Register for Merseyside, he is not. Abigail Hopkins, please reconcile with your father if that is at all possible.

Sir Anthony Hopkins is a legend in the world of entertainment and in real life he is an extraordinary human being with a big heart. He will never admit to anyone who hurt him, he knows how to forget and he moves on with his life. The people who hurt him have lost more than he suffered, you will see that in the years to come. He is very happy in his new stage of life.

[benjiebenjamin]

An honorsble man ❤. Anyone can make a mistske but it takes courage to learn from our errors & become a better person.

[edwardhaggar]

No Anthony has made it clear that he would love to reconcile with his Daughter, Very humbling & does not diminish the popularity of the Man!!!

[daphniapter]

Keep speaking, great, motivational. Soul stirring. From the class of 37, must've been something in the water

[jeannedouglas]

Anthony Hopkins is possibly the best actor of the last century. Tragically many artists have very troubled personal lives and often struggle with drugs or alcohol at some time. There is no perfect family system. 🎉

[michellejean]

Love this man. On and off stage. Thanks.

[webbltw]

Great actor, appears to be a fine human being. He deserves a second chance. No one is perfect. He is sober now and most likely a different person than when he was drinking. Will keep them in prayer.

[seankay]

No one on here knows him better than his daughter. What happened behind closed doors, only him and his family know. You people only see him as distant outsiders and he only shows what he wants you to see. None of you really know him.

[yvette-fn]

SMART PEOPLE WILL NOT JUDGE. SIR HOPKINS IS ONE OF THE BEST & GREATEST ACTOR

[Bs]

Going public in his journey through amends and healing. It will help him. Addiction as they say is a lifelong batlle. The addict heals quicker than those affected by the addict. Most people can tell their story how tge sad reality of addiction has affected them. Compassion for the addict is a primary part for those affected. I commend his profound honesty.

[Katrina-zc]

His personal life was a tough one guessing that him and his daughter need there space to figure it out!!

[christabidgood]

No You can clearly see how much he loves her. Clearly she is carry pain from something that happened in his active alcoholism that as with my own children she may find it in her heart to forgive him for what ever happened between them. In the mean time the hurt doesn't ever leave you, however they become moments in time and when that happens to me I remind myself that my own children have made decisions for themselves which I accept and understand, because living with my active alcoholism was so very hard on them. I know my children have gained great lives.,
married with children all have careers and own their homes and from the photos I get to see through third parties they appear happy. I would never impose myself on them as they have made it clear they wish to have no contact, no phone no social media, my daughters have blocked everything. I love them so very much and continue to pray we find our way back to one another. All in Gods hands and in Gods plan. Thank God for my 33 years sober and living a great life.

Inspiring and amazing man. Everyone has their struggles and disappointments and difficulties with relationships. He is open and honest about it. AND a truly inspirational actor.
