Actor Andrew Scott and his family have been left utterly heartbroken after his mum, Nora, died earlier this week, just days before celebrating Mother's Day
The actor and his relatives announced that Nora died on Thursday, March 7, while at St Vincent's Hospital in Dublin, Ireland. Sharing the devastating news, an obituary read: "It is with our deepest sorrow that we inform you of the passing of Nora Scott , beloved wife of Jim, mother of Sarah, Andrew and Hannah.
During a meeting with the actor on the set of King Lear, in which Andrew played Edgar, she informed him that she was unwell and Anthony went out of his way to cheer her up. Speaking on RTÉ, she told Ryan Tubridy: "There was probably more than three dozen red roses and attached to them was a little card from Anthony saying 'Be well, sending hugs', and all sorts of things.
During the film, viewers saw both Mescal and Scott's characters getting intimate with one another, with them both claiming it would be rather difficult to watch the movie with their relatives due to the levels of sexual engagement. "I don't want to be there when my parents watch it!" he told chat show host Graham Norton.
