He’d been living the life of a Hollywood millionaire until his divorce in 2013 when he became embroiled in a legal battle over access to his eight-year-old boy Wylie.
‘Peter has been wiped out financially over the last few years. It has been very tough on him and he is struggling,’ a source told The Sun.
‘He has gone from living the life of a millionaire in Hollywood to living in Leeds on benefits. His friends are worried about how he is coping.

The source said he tried his hand at becoming a hairdresser but wasn’t getting any work so he turned to busking as a last resort.
The Irishman married actress Lena, who plays Cersei Lannister in Game of Thrones, in 2007 and Wylie was born in 2010.
Friends have started a GoFundMe page called ‘Help pay Peter Paul’s legal fees’ to support him.
