Emphasising how important family life is to him, the 42-year-old said: "The thing I am most proud of is that I’m a father of three and I have a good relationship with my partner and a great family life and I’m still able to do good work and, as I’ve got older, the characters have become more interesting.”

He also spoke on how the family, who reside on the border of Surrey and Sussex, have coped with three small children aged one, three, and five, during the pandemic and that it takes "a lot of work".
Hartnett shared: "We’ve been trying to keep them occupied as best we can, but it’s a lot of work and it takes both of us all day and by the end of it all we want to do is reach for a bottle of wine and go to sleep.”
While he has given little detail about his offspring, Hartnett has previously said his eldest child is a girl.

The star explained he steered away from a glittering Hollywood career making big-budget films in order to "have a life" as he put family and friends above "chasing a Hollywood dream".
Hartnett has maintained a steady career in smaller-budget and independent movies in recent years but will be edging back into the mainstream as he is starring in upcoming Guy Ritchie action flick Wrath of Man, based on the 2004 French film Cash Truck.
