A Heart As Big As His Muscles: Tom Hardy Makes Sick Fan’s Wish Come True

Just when we thought we couldn't love him anymore...

We’ve always been a fan of Tom Hardy’s big muscles but today we’ve gone weak at the knees for his big heart.

The Dark Knight Rises star reportedly treated a sick fan of his to a lunch date and a diamond necklace in London recently.

Kayleigh Duff apparently drew up a wish list when she was diagnosed with a rare form of aggressive cancer which also took her father’s life when she was eight-years-old.

One of those wishes was to meet the actor and thanks to her friend Katie, as well as Hardy’s former fiancée Charlotte Riley, she got to spend a day with him between treatments.

The 23-year-old, who has a two-year-old son called Kai, told The Canterbury Times that she didn’t expect anything.

“I nearly died when I saw him. I was shaking – I just thought we were having a day out in London… We had lunch and tea and scones and he bought me a diamond necklace,” she explained.
