Oh, CRAP. Tom Hardy has split from his fiancée Charlotte Riley. Tom and Charlotte had been together for about two years, I think, and they got engaged last July. And now it’s over, allegedly (but I think it’s true). Tom didn’t attend the BAFTAs, even though he won the “BAFTA Rising Star” award, and his absence was felt. Now it looks like he skipped the BAFTAs because of this personal drama.
Tom Hardy has reportedly split from his actress fiancee Charlotte Riley, seven months after they got engaged.
The couple – who got engaged last July after dating for one year – reportedly broke up last month although the ‘Inception’ actor is said to be desperate to rekindle their relationship. A source told the Metro newspaper: “Tom and Charlotte broke up last month. He has been calling her a lot to try to patch things up.”
Tom, 33, and 28-year-old Charlotte first met on the set of the TV adaptation of ‘Wuthering Heights’ when they were cast as star-crossed lovers before going on to work together again in television drama ‘The Take’.
Speculation about the couple’s relationship has been mounting after Tom failed to make an appearance at Sunday’s (13.02.11) BAFTAs where he won the Orange Wednesdays Rising Star Award.
He is said to have sent an apology blaming “personal commitments” for his absence.
The actor – who has signed to star as a villain in Christopher Nolan’s latest Batman film ‘The Dark Knight Rises’ was previously married to Sarah Ward from 1999 to 2004.
He has a two-year-old son Louis Thomas Hardy with ex-girlfriend Rachael Speed.
Tom – who battled alcoholism and a crack cocaine addiction in his early-to mid-twenties – revealed last year he had relationships with men when he was younger.
He said: “I’m an actor for f**k’s sake. I’ve played with everything and everyone. I love the form and the physicality, but now that I’m in my thirties, it doesn’t do it for me. I’m done experimenting.”

You know what my first thought was? Lindsay Lohan. She had been using Tom’s name in the various reports, claiming that he was her “sober mentor” and even reportedly telling friends that Tom came to see her in rehab, and that they were boning. So… was Lindsay involved in the split? Did her Typhoid Mary-esque crack vadge destroy Tom’s engagement. Tell me something ladies: if your fiancé was hanging around Lindsay Lohan, even for allegedly sober-coaching purposes, would you be cool with it? I wouldn’t. That crack vadge is radioactive.
Also: I’m really starting to think that Tom Hardy isn’t the Man-God everyone thinks he might be. There seems to be a really sleazy streak in him. Just a thought.

No!!! Sad I love them together!!!
I think there must be a shred of truth to the LL rumours and that’s why Charlotte bailed. Maybe not boning, but visits that she didn’t know about until LL went to TMZ.
I’d be worried about a priest as LiLo’s sober coach. I saw the Exorcist a few years back.
Some men like skanky.
Ha! I told you he was all kinds of skeevy! And yeah, if my boyfriend was even rumored to be trading body fluids with the crackwhore, I’d have to find me a new boyfriend! Lindsey-stink never washes off- she’s the new and nastier Paris Hilton.
Tom Hardy is hot. Having read the above…I am scratching my head a bit. He was married. He had a child with a girlfriend. The connection with Lindsey Lohan. What?? I need a private moment to think this through.
I thought that it’s been all but confirmed that LL is planting those stories herself? I’ve been hearing that Tom’s people have been trying to distance him from LL as much as possible, but she keeps trying to ram “rumors” that no one was talking about down our throats to keep herself relevant.
That said, something about this engagement seemed off. Some couples just don’t make it. I hope it wasn’t something terrible like infidelity or something, but who knows?
Kaiser! Congrats on waking up about TH, you can just tell by looking at him that he’s an utter sleaze
Anyone Lindsay is involved with is doomed to fail, she is a selfish crack madam who gets off on f*cking anything that breathes….of course they were doing the dirty
If there wasn’t a sleazy streak in him before Lilo, there definitely will be after.
Pleeease don’t let LL be involved in this…he will be forever tainted if she is! That can’t happen!
I think it’s likely more due to his lack of time to devote to their relationship because he’s suddenly in high demand, filming one high-profile project after another, and getting the first taste of real commercial success. I imagine a string of broken commitments about which he felt bad but couldn’t avoid in the furtherance of his career.
This LL association gambit is 100% her doing, in order to hitch her skint ass to a rising star. I wish you wouldn’t support it by buying into it.
His lips are very strange looking to me.
I wouldn’t want to be around anyone who voluntarily spent time with Lohan.
Could be other things though, like his career taking off – things like that have caused breakups before.
What about the gossip about him and Reese last fall? They were certainly “close” in some of the on set pictures. I’d believe that before I’d believe him and Lilo.
Crack Vadge or Vadge Crack? I’m getting mixed up! In either event, in case of radioactivity 9 out of 10 OBGYNs recommend lead rubbers.
He’s def got that bad boy vibe. And that’s a no from me on my man being around LL.
Charlotte is really pretty…Lindz will ruin him on every level.
The first pic. of Tom makes him look sleazy – he reminds me of Mickey Rourke in it.
Ha – Love the pics. of Lilo, they fit the story perfectly!
I’m not surprised. He made interesting some comments in the past that made me go “hmmm”.
alright, i’ll admit it guys…
i broke them up…
in my HGF dreams<3
Wasn’t he rumored to have cheated on another woman with THIS woman? Didn’t he cheat on his 1st baby mo-, I mean mother of his 1st child? Or am I mixing him up with ALL celeb males?
Although I do marvel at Kleptohan’s ability to instantly make anything appear greasy and sketchy just by mere association alone, and he does have some Butler-esque skeeze about him, this might just be “grown apart,” given his recent popularity.
Lohan is Toxic to anyone around her. If he is involved with her then he deserves whatever befalls him for being so stupid.
YAYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!
I’ll also say this: I don’t think LL is involved because if you put the old lady (Charlotte) next to the new lady (Lindsay), I mean…..look, Lindsay can clean up nicely, and at one point in her “career” was super beautiful. But she’s not anymore. Her lips look stupid, her skin is aging because of her lifestyle, her extensions ALWAYS look shitty, not to mention she probably comes with a few STDs, if not Hep C. Now, stranger things have happened, and men with 10s have always cheated with 6s, but if he really fooled around on pretty, petite, demure Charlotte Riley with Lindsay Lohan?! Well, Charlotte girl, you dodged a bullet. You’re way too good for to have a dumpster diver fiance.
Never thought he was all that. His ex-fiancee is really pretty but I’ve always got the sleazeball vibe from him for some reason.
He is not involed with Lindsay. It seems to me that Tom has been working and keeping his head down. People will believe anything that comes out of that crackhead’s mouth. As if a guy on the rise would get involved with a thieving crackhead with no career.
i still think he would be great pick to play assange in the proposed film. he’d have to be skinnier but i bet he could master it.
it’s a damn shame if he liloed. some guys are just destructive and they just do stupid things like that.
Reason for the sleaze-vibe:
-Has been with current ex-fiancee for 2 years;
-Has a 2 year-old with another ex (do the math);
-Has been seen in public with Blohan.
And I’m going to say Blohan is a nastier, more virulent strain of Parisite.
I always thought he looked like a sleaze. That first pic with his slimy hair confirms it for me lol.
@KJ: LMAO at “dumpster diver”
Nothing gives me joy, as much as Lindsay proudly showing off that worm lip of hers.
Geez, it is just creepy as hell and she is obviously so proud of it.
But I still love her cracked out pictures in the fake fur the best. Yet this worm lip picture is taking over that love.
Of course he’s skeezy. That’s why I love him. You can’t be on my 5 list without having some sort of steeze.
He’s a man whore. You can see it in his eyes.
I wouldnt associate with anyone that has anything to do with the Lohans. They’re about as bottom of the barrel as you can get.
@ the original bellaluna
He hasn’t been seen in public with lohan. Its just a tabloid report. There is not one picture of them together. I think she used his name for press and planted the stories anyway. Thats how she rolls feels validated when she is connected to someone with a hot name. She did this with other a list stars.. It means nothing to her but a bit of attention. But i can see how charlotte riley would not appreciate this.
he seemed sleezy to me from the get-go. and sleezy just about kills any turn on.
so…..lohan or not, he’s not something in my book.
Hardy likes to party with Leo Dicaprio the eternal bachelor so it’s not a surprise
Kasier,
It would only take a rumor of association with any Lohan for me to throw my hubby’s ass right out the door. That is some stuff that bleach won’t take off.
@ Dan – Yes, thank you, I know. I was being narky.
Not everything in the world revolves around lindsay lohan kaiser!
From the original report it actually sounds like he has relapsed or something. The fact that he can’t be reached etc.
Doubt he would not turn up to the baftas because of the break up of his relationship. I am gonna guess charlotte gave him the boot because he is using again. It also fits with the chaos of the bafta’s having trouble locating him. And his people not being sure where he is.
I dont know about the trainwreck. Hasn’t all his gfs been brunettes? Why would he go for a terrible blond wig? Attatched to a moron? and i’m sure crackhead would have made SURE there were pics of them together. NOT buying it!
and what is he about to do about that portrait of his ex-fiancee he has tattooed on his arm?
I am with you Mac.
This dude is an addict who is struggling with demons and a destructive personality. I don’t think he needs lindsay lohan to fuck up his engagement. The whole scenario sounds like a relapse more than anything.
I have no idea why kaiser ever thought he was perfect? He is a good actor though.
I find him to be quite repulsive looking. Something about those lips and nose and eyebrows… I dunno, I just absolutely don’t get the his hotness. Even the body looks sleazy, if that’s even possible. He’s like Rhys Meyers without the edginess.
Why would any man WANT to bone Hohan, other than for the reason she’s an easy lay? She’s drank and drugged her looks, talent and money away.
Mac might have it.
I don’t know why it didn’t even occur to me. He’s been more than open about his troubles with substance abuse. I would now like to throw my hat in the “he relapsed” pile. I had no idea that his people couldn’t find him, either. No showing to get a pretty substantial award, not being able to be reached, the fiancee suddenly bouncing? If there’s anything he’s doing with Lohan, it’s trying to find a drug dealer.
If I’m not mistaken this happened at the beginning of his career, when he was *gasp* married. He was using heavily, on the cusp on stardom in the US, and ended up ruining his career and ending his marriage before heading to rehab. I fear he may have fallen off the wagon.
well, he got cast as heathcliff for a reason, not because he’s greek god type, but because he’s got a brutish sex appeal to him that seems almost dangerous. He actually is upper middle class, but comes off very blue collar broody.
THAT SAID though, I don’t buy the LL rumors at all, LL has ALWAYS planted stories about her and others she hasn’t even met, she did that with Robert Pattinson in 2008.
My bet? Him and his girl hit a rough patch, she bailed, and a relapse either happened during the rough patch, or afterward. People tend to relapse with big things like the end of a relationship.
I think a relapse is far more fitting with how the story has been reported so far. Sounds like he is in a bad place if his handlers can’t even track him down.
And as other commentators have said Lindsay isn’t even his type physically – and there is the fact that she tends to plant these which makes that whole report mot.
aah Tom, Tom, Tom- what a babe. I hope he has NOTHING to do with that crackhead and just realised that he is a beautiful man and could be having sex with everyone in the world? While he still looks this good I don’t care if he’s a sleaze 🙂
Could someone back me up or correct me on if he has been known to cheat in the past? Just curious.
He’s completed 3 films in 2010, and will have completed 2 more (one of them VERY prolific), and seen the release of the previous 3, by this years’ end. Plus, suddenly his name is on a lot of short lists for future big-budget, high profile features.
He may have decided to pursue this new found popularity in his acting career at the cost of his family…and *possibly* his sobriety.
Honestly, if my fiancee, boyfriend, or girlfriend were hanging out with Lindsay (for any reason whatsoever), I would definitely ditch them. But it would have nothing to do with jealousy or infidelity… it would have to do with their obvious and complete lack of sanity.
His history gives me shades of Jolie’esqueness. Some similarities there.
Also, he needs to stay far, far, far away from Lohan.
don’t worry everyone. It’s cool. Lindsay is not involved. Tom just realized that, clearly, he was meant to be with me.
A lot of British guys are into the skank, they don’t like the ‘girl next door’ thing that’s so big in America.
isn’t he about to hit mega status ….
and all those goodies that will come rolling his way will be too hard to deny; esp for someone with addictive past.
nope, still a Man-God…hahaha i love that
That’s a shame, I always liked them. And by liked them, I mean…I thought it was awesome that she always seemed normal/shy and STILL ended up with the hottie.
Plus, for anyone who’s seen ‘Wuthering Heights’, they act wonderfully together.
His rep already denied this story to gossip cop. They say he is still with charlotte > his personal issues are not romantic. I think the relapse theory might be true!
She should run! he is nasty!
Jesus on a cracker, people! Isn’t ANYONE going to mention how cross- eyed his ex-fiancé is in that first picture?!? She’s gorgeous, and even with two wonky eyes, she blows Cokehan outta the water. But, God, how does that chick keep from walking into walls all day?!?
I utterly refuse to believe that the crack-witch is involved. They both denied the stories. I think that’s just coincidence. Lilo has been pursuing SamRo pretty hard. I really, really want to like him! I’ve been a fan since Nemesis! Way before the general movie goers! arg…
@CooCoo, I’m cross-eyed (can’t get surgery for many reasons) and I have perfect vision. Now STFU. Thanks 🙂
This guy looks like a cross between Mickey Rourke and Johnathan Rhys Meyers. Yeah, defo the sleazo factor of Rourke.
Was a dong involved, I wonder???
Aurelia you got that second part of the mix (Mickey Rourke) I was looking for. Dead on.
Well… sleaze is my type anyway. But yes, I think is drugs..
I’m on board with the relapse theory.
I’d ditch my boyfriend in a heartbeat if he had anything to do with Lohan. It would show a serious lack of judgement and taste. Compassion doesn’t enter into it. If I had a husband…yeah, I’d be giving him the stinkeye too.
“A lot of British guys are into the skank, they don’t like the ‘girl next door’ thing that’s so big in America.” WHAAAA? Really? That’s so wierd.
A bit disappointed in Celebitchy here. Not only did you totally buy this rumor but you also made up stuff with the lohan thing.
Kaiser ran away with this one and decided to involve lohan as the only blogger out there and it now turns out to be a false story and even perez had the decency to put up an update as Tom’s reps denied the story..
I quote:
Gossip Cop can confirm that the “personal commitments” Hardy cited as his reason for missing the ceremony had nothing to do with any romantic troubles.
A source close to Hardy tells Gossip Cop it’s “incorrect that they split.”
They are still together people! Perez has a post about it. His rep said the stories are 100% untrue. I do think Tom has some personal problems though maybe drugs. His finance is fucking hot. They had mad chemistry in wuthering heights. He be a fool to mess that up.
I wanna agree with Brooke.
The LL association is 100% her doing and you guys at Celebitchy shouldn’t help her perpetuate these kind of rumors by buying into it.
In the end it turns out Tom and Charlotte haven’t even split up so….
One thing about linday lohan . I once read an article in which friends say that lindsay MUST be centre of attention at all times —-she will lie about famous actors pursuing her to make samantha ronson whom she is obsessed with jealous—– And so that her friends will think she is all that. My bet is 99% of these lindsay stories are just a game lindsay plays with the blogs.
CB and Kaiser always post stories that later end up being false and barely ever post corrections. It’s a gossip site. *shrug*
Damn, talk about beautiful couple. I am glad they are still together. I went to perez and and he has indeed a statement from Hardy’s rep : ” reports of a split are “100% not true”.
One thing Kaiser! In no fan of lohan but How can you call lohan a crackhead but think Tom is perfection? Tom was addicted to crack cocaine for many years. The difference is just that unlike lindsay his crack years happened before he was famous. But they really aren’t any different in that respect.
@ jane. Sure its a gossip site but it wouldn’t take that much of an effort to post updates. the way it is now you have to go to other sites to get updates. Which in the end makes this site, which i like, superfluous.
@caroline: I’m not Kaiser but I’ll take a stab at commenting. She can trash Lohan vs. Hardy for one big reason. HE QUIT. She hasn’t.
Next!!
he’s hollywood royalty now. finally getting a huge doze of fame and doing what so many before him have done. dumping the commoner of a fiancee..
Of course he’s sleazy, that’s exactly his appeal. I don’t think he’s banging LL though, probably barely knows her. I imagine it’s more the fame inequality thing and the lack of time together.
“Speculation about the couple’s relationship has been mounting after Tom failed to make an appearance at Sunday’s (13.02.11) BAFTAs where he won the Orange Wednesdays Rising Star Award. He is said to have sent an apology blaming “personal commitments” for his absence.”
I’d love to see someone blame “personal commitments” for not collecting an Oscar.
Brando!
It’s pretty much the general consensus that Lindsay Lohan can be attributed to all that is wrong with the world.
Sort of like that ‘almost everyone can be connected with Kevin Bacon through a certain amount of people’ thing. In this case, Lindsay could be connected to all the world’s tragedies & misfortune. Poverty, political uprisings, world hunger… Anyone know where she was when Hurricane Katrina hit? >.>
Have no idea who this guy is, but he’s way too good to be dipping his wick into her cracksnatch.
He may be good looking, but the real reason his engagement is done is because he is gay,gay and gay.
Great column , I am going to spend more time reading about this subject
I’d still do him!
Don’t we find him hot because he is the bad boy? Of course he has a sleazy streak. But he’s still hot and mega talented.
Charlotte Riley is just an attention whore and cross-eyed. She’s with Tom only for him make her famous, just look at the pictures of them in premieres of his movies, she is always posing for the paparazzi in an exaggerated way, she almost pushes Tom just to appear in the pics, she is so fake!
Tom’s ex-girlfriend Rachael Speed (mom of his son Louis) is soooooooooooo much beautiful and natural than this “thing” that he’s with now.
