The ‘Dunkirk’ star – who was nominated for an Academy Award for his role in ‘ The Banshees of Inisherin’ in 2023 – revealed towards the end of last year that he “relied” on Alyson for a lot in life, especially following the death of his mother when he was just 12 years old, as he reflected that he had to “drink” a lot of his grief.

He told British GQ: “I’m not gonna sit here and say I’m very independent. I rely on Alyson to do a lot for me, you know, but you build this thing in you without your mother or your father. A toughness, You have to figure it out yourself. You go to the pub and you drink it down.

He added: “Being a dad is incredible, it’s a love I’ve not felt before.”
