Kit Harington: Before getting sober, I couldn’t be proud
“Game Of Thrones” star Kit Harington says he is "lucky" to have kicked his addiction issues before becoming a father because he "hated himself" when he was drinking.
The “Pompeii” actor also said he looks towards his wife for career advice.
“Game of Thrones” actor Kit Harington thinks being married to actress Rose Leslie is “great”.
Asked if marriage has changed his life, Harington told Empire magazine: “Not really. I love stability. You know, I knew I wanted to do this — we knew we wanted to do this. We had a great day.

“And you can suddenly go off and get on with so much more in life now. You know, that’s done. That’s my wife. I’m her husband. That box is ticket, right? Let’s get on as a partnership and make a life together. It’s great.”

The 32-year-old star said the fact both he and Rose are actors can be hard on their relationship because they have to spend so much time apart — but it can also be beneficial because they understand their work commitments, reports femalefirst.co.uk.
He said: “It does and it doesn’t (help marrying another actor). I won’t say too much about us because I always feel that I’m interviewing as me and I can’t speak for her.
“But it does and it doesn’t. You’re away from each other a lot because you are both in the business. But you do understand why you are away a lot, because you are both in the business.”
The “Pompeii” actor also said he looks towards his wife for career advice.
Asked if Leslie ever reads scripts he has been offered, he said: “Ha! Yeah. ‘Don’t do that. No, you shouldn’t do that’.”
