The actor has become close friends with the troubled rocker, following the death of Jonathan’s beloved mother last month, and the pair are now said to be hunting for a pad in east London together.
Jonathan – who plays Henry VIII in hit TV show ‘The Tudors’ – was left homeless after ex-girlfriend Reena Hammer forced him to move out of her Camden home.
A source told the Daily Star: ‘Jonathan’s mother died last month, leaving him heartbroken. Then his girlfriend split with him, forcing him to move out of her north London apartment.
‘Although Jonathan spends a lot of time filming in Los Angeles these days he still needs somewhere to stay while working in London. So when a mutual friend suggested he and Pete could get a flat together, Jonathan jumped at the chance.’
Jonathan and the Babyshambles frontman – who recently completed a stint in rehab for drink and drug addiction – have started looking at properties and sources believe they will be a good influence on each other.
One said: ‘Jonathan’s friend knows that he has had a really rough time of it recently and that Pete has too. So he suggested Pete and Jonathan rent a place to help each other through their tough times. Jonathan thought it was a great idea and has started looking at flats in one block in east London. Pete thinks it’s a great idea
too.’
