The big screen hard man has lost his best friend
TOM Hardy has been left heartbroken by the death of his Labrador best friend - Woody.
The 39-year-old Hollywood actor posted a heartfelt announcement on his Tumbler after his four legged friend died.
"The world for me was a better place with him in it and by my side...
“To the bestest friend ever. To me and to a family who loved him beyond words and whom he loved without doubt more than I have ever known. Woody was the bestest of journey companions we ever could dream of having. Our souls intertwined forever.”
In the lengthy post, Tom expressed his grief for his pet - who he would take to premiers and also kept at his side while reading bedtime stories on CBeebies.
“He was only age six. He was far too young to leave us and we at home are devastated by his loss. I am ultimately grateful for his loyal companionship and love and it is of some great comfort that he is no longer suffering,” he said.
“He was special bro, a shining example of man’s best friend. He burnt very very bright and those that burn very bright sometimes burn half as long.
“Thank you Woody for choosing to find us. We will love you and be with you and you with us forever. Never ever ever forgotten. Your boy Tom xxx I love you beyond words. To the moon and back again and again. To infinity and beyond.”
He added: “Run with the angels. I will see you when I get there. With all of me I love you. Always.
"Thank you for your love beautiful boy.”
Tom previously described Woody as his only friend, revealing: “I don’t have any friends. So I like to keep [to] myself. I have a dog and a son. A dog couldn’t do anything to upset me, you know, and neither could my son.”
