Gossip: Jonathan Rhys Meyers
The Tudors star is heading back to rehab.
Actor Jonathan Rhys Meyers is heading back to rehab after he was rushed to the hospital last week, said People.com. Initial reports said officials suspected the Tudors star, 33, had tried to commit suicide with pills, but friends said he was just very drunk. Meyers has a long history of addiction issues, and was just last month released from his fifth stint in rehab, at a treatment center in South Africa.
