From his Hollywood bad boy days to finding sobriety, Colin Farrell has significantly transformed his life and credits his children for his success.
From his partying ways to his public flings, Colin Farrell was once known as Hollywood's bad boy. Now, the 48-year-old Irish actor is living life as a devoted dad of two and credits his elder son, James — who has a rare neurogenic disorder called Angelman syndrome — for his sobriety of nearly twenty years.

In 2021, Farrell spoke candidly about how his sobriety has impacted his professional career as well.
