Rhys Ifans fights back

Friday, 20 June 2008

Actor Rhys Ifans is struggling to cope since his split from Sienna Miller.

The Notting Hill star is being hounded by photographers who want to capatilise on his misery.

Sienna reportedly dumped the 39-year-old for being jealous of her ex-boyfriend.

Rhys proposed to Sienna three times before she accepted, but sources claim she was never sure about tying the knot with him.

Yesterday he got in trouble with the police after he was seen throwing a bottle at photographers.

He had just left the Hoping Foundation Benefit Evening at the Ronnie Scott's jazz club when photographers approached him. The Karaoke with the Stars night aimed to raise awareness and funds for Palestinian children.

It is not known what they said to the Welsh star but it clearly upset him. He flung the bottle of beer he was carrying at the nearest photographer. No one was hurt in the incident.

Today his ex has announced that she plans to sell their home. The 'Factory Girl' star, who lived in London's Maida Vale with the actor until their reported recent split, is now keen to get rid of the property.

She said: "I want to sell that house. I don't like it any more. I'm over it."

She was at the London premiere of her film 'The Edge Of Love' last night. The film is set in during the war and tells the story of Dylan Thomas and his two lovers.

She told The Daily Mail: "I'm not victimising myself, I'm not this tragic figure.

"My life is privileged but it comes at a price. And it's exactly where I'm supposed to be.

"I make decisions. I take responsibility for them. And I f*** up."
