Welsh actor Sir Anthony Hopkins surprises people at a local fish and chip shop during a visit to his hometown.
Sir Anthony Hopkins, the acclaimed actor known for his roles in movies like "The Silence of the Lambs" and "Hannibal," recently made a surprise appearance at a chip shop in Port Talbot, Wales. The locals were overjoyed to see their hometown hero back in town, and Sir Anthony's visit caused quite a stir.

At 87 years old, Sir Anthony returned to his birthplace of Port Talbot and decided to stop by his favorite chip shop, Steve's Fish Bar in Taibach. He was seen posing for photos with the staff and chatting with customers as they placed their orders. The chippy's owner even shared some snapshots of the star on Facebook, writing, "He's back again for his fish and chips!" It was clear that Sir Anthony's love for his hometown and its people was mutual.

Dressed down in a flat black baker hat and layered black outfit, including a coat and fleece, the Oscar-winning actor seemed at ease and happy to be back in Port Talbot. He even took the time to smile for a worker's video and gave the shop a thumbs up, showing his appreciation for the delicious food they serve. It's no surprise that Steve's Fish Bar is a local hotspot with rave reviews online.

Sir Anthony's visit to Wales came just weeks after it was revealed that his house in the Pacific Palisades area of Los Angeles was one of the many celebrity homes destroyed in the recent wildfires. The actor had bought the four-bedroom, five-bathroom home for $6 million in 2021, but unfortunately, only the foundations of the property remained after the fire. Interestingly, this wasn't the first time the actor had faced a home fire. In 2018, his former home narrowly escaped the Woolsey fire, and back in 2000, he lost his home in Kensington, London to a fire.

Despite the loss of his home, Sir Anthony remains positive and focused on what truly matters - love. He and his wife, Stella Arroyave Hopkins, have several homes across the globe, but as the actor wrote on social media, "The only thing we take with us is the love we give." As the community works to heal from the devastation of the wildfires, Sir Anthony's words serve as a reminder to cherish the love we have for others.
