Game of Thrones star Kit Harington has checked into a “wellness retreat” in the US, reportedly for stress.
The actor – who’s known for playing Jon Snow – began getting treatment several weeks ago, according to Page Six.
His publicist told Radio 1 Newsbeat that Kit was working on “some personal issues.”
In a recent interview Kit spoke of “a huge heave of emotion” after filming the final scenes of Game of Thrones, which he worked on for eight seasons.
In a different interview – the 32-year-old actor told Esquire what it was like filming Jon Snow’s final scenes.
He said: “The final day of shooting, I felt fine… I felt fine… I felt fine… Then I went to do my last shots and started hyperventilating a bit.
“Then they called, ‘Wrap!’ And I just… broke down. It was this onslaught of relief and grief about not being able to do this again.”
A documentary about the end of Game of Thrones called The Last Watch was released on Sunday.
It showed Kit crying when he learned about his character’s ending.
Kit – who was in Game of Thrones from the first episode until the last – told Variety about the effects of working on such an intense show for a long period.
“You have these in-jokes, and these relationships that thrive for eight years,” he explained.
“That’s a long time for those jokes to be going, and they never felt old or tired. In the last season, I was like, these are getting tired now.
“And I think they got tired because we could see the end coming.
“That’s a way of emotionally detaching from something: relationships very slightly starting to strain, just on the edges, just frayed.”
The final series of the show – based on the books A Song of Ice and Fire by George R R Martin – received mixed reviews with more than a million people signing a petition for it to be remade.
