Oscar-winning actor Anthony Hopkins was spotted enjoying a traditional fish and chips meal at a beloved local shop in his hometown of Port Talbot, Wales. The heartwarming appearance comes after he lost his home in the Palisades fire in Los Angeles this month.
Anthony Hopkins surprised locals in his hometown of Port Talbot , Wales, on Wednesday by grabbing a classic fish and chips meal. The 87-year-old Oscar-winning actor, known for his roles in films like 'The Silence of the Lambs' and 'The Father,' was spotted at Steve's Fish Bar, a beloved local establishment. It's unclear if Hopkins enjoyed his meal on the premises or took it elsewhere, but he likely washed it down with a nice Chianti, a nod to his iconic portrayal of Hannibal Lecter.
The shop owner playfully posted about the encounter on Facebook, calling it 'a better advertisement' you could ask for. Hopkins' heartwarming visit comes after he recently lost his home in the Palisades fire in Los Angeles. Sharing a message of support on social media, he reminded his followers that 'the only thing we take with us is the love we give' during times of hardship. The actor, who purchased a stunning four-bedroom, five-bathroom home in Pacific Palisades for £4.8 million in 2021, saw his property destroyed by the flames. Photos reveal the charred remains of the classic colonial home, leaving only a scorched fence as a reminder of its former beauty.This isn't the first time Hopkins' home has faced devastation from fires. In 2018, his property narrowly escaped the Woolsey fire, which ravaged his neighbor's land. Even further back, in 2000, his London home succumbed to flames, but thankfully, he was safe in Los Angeles at the time. Despite these setbacks, Hopkins remains resilient. Earlier this month, he attended the star-studded Joy Awards in Saudi Arabia, radiating optimism and strength alongside his wife, Stella Arroyave. He continues to be a prolific actor, lending his voice to the Netflix film 'Rebel Moon - Part Two: The Scargiver' and starring in the Peacock series 'Those About to Die'.
