Game of Thrones star Sean Bean was attacked outside a London club on Sunday. Bean and model April Summers were smoking outside at the Hill Bar and Brasserie in Camden when the incident happened.

A passer-by made vulgar remarks about his friend outside the pub, prompting the former Sharpe actor to approach the guy.

Bean’s white knighthood was commendable, but it was also hazardous, as a brawl erupted and the actor was eventually stabbed outside a London bar.

Bean was stabbed in the arm with what was thought to be a broken glass and struck in the face during the altercation on Sunday evening, according to eyewitnesses reported by the Daily Mail.

Bean, who lives nearby and is famed for his action-movie performances, is said to have rejected medical care during the altercation.

“Sean is a regular here and we’ve never had any problems before,” a fellow drinker told The Mail. “He was with a very attractive woman and an incident occurred outside the bar.”

“He came in with a cut on his arm and a bruise on his eyebrow. We saw to his injuries with the first aid kit. He seemed OK and wanted to have another drink.”

Following his breakup from his fourth wife Georgina Sutcliffe in December 2010 after two years of marriage, it is unknown whether April, who is 30 years younger than Sean, is his new partner.

On HBO’s Game of Thrones, Bean portrays Lord Eddard “Ned” Stark. In addition to playing Boromir in the Lord of the Rings trilogy, he has appeared in a number of British television movies as the historical fiction character Richard Sharpe.
