Young mum Kayleigh Duff [spent the day] with film star Tom Hardy during a break from her cancer treatment.Kayleigh "is due to start a different combination of chemo drugs in a few weeks." I hope she has success with them. I know that's not likely, but I hope it nonetheless.
The 23-year-old spent yesterday in London with the film star, who appeared in Inception and The Dark Knight Rises, as part of a surprise organised by her friend Katie Birch.
Meeting him was one of the items on a wish list she drew up after being diagnosed with the same rare and aggressive form of cancer that killed her father when she was just eight.
...She appeared on ITV's This Morning after [another wish was fulfilled] and Tom Hardy's fiancee's sister saw the item and contacted the show.
Kayleigh, of Wye Green, Herne Bay, said: "I nearly died when I saw him. I was shaking - I just thought we were having a day out in London. Tom's fiancee Charlotte and Katie arranged it all without me knowing and he was so lovely and down to earth. We had lunch and tea and scones and he bought me a diamond necklace."
[Note: I am not implying that Tom Hardy is perfect! I am sure he has all kinds of human flaws, like unexamined privilege or forgetting to put his stinky socks in the hamper! I am just saying he did a pretty nice thing.]
