Irons and pashouse: A player is caught riding with his dog in his arms … again

You’d think he was once bitten, twice shy – but Jeremy Irons was caught driving with his dog Smudge in his arms for the second time.

The actor, who was seen in 2018 with his pet on a motorcycle, has now been spotted sharing the driver’s seat of his Mini with him.

The 73-year-old Irons dined at Mayfair Scott’s restaurant with his wife Sinead Cusack. The two were left in the car while she ate.

The Highway Code stipulates that animals must be “properly tethered so that they cannot disturb you while driving”. Violation of the code carries a fine of up to £ 5,000.

Irons was later portrayed in the driver’s seat with a Smudge that had no restraint and could easily obstruct the player’s view of the road as a result.

The Oscar-winning star was dressed in yellow pants and a long coat with a tie for dinner, and actress Marcella Miss Cusack opted for loose gray pants and a black structured jacket.

In March, a survey by road safety charity IAM RoadSmart found that more than four in ten dog owners put their dog in a dangerous place while driving.

The Dogs Trust also advises that dogs should not travel in the front of the car.

The seven-year-old Smudge mix is ​​a lifeguard from Battersea Dogs Home.

Irons had previously revealed that she always travels with her furry companion, and told Country Life: ‘She rides with me on my motorbike, on my trap, in my boats and sits behind the scenes in the theater and film venues.

‘She was with me at Broadway shows, flying private jets and being at the White House.’

He also joked that Smudge once embarrassed him by vomiting ‘down the lobby’ at Facebook offices in New York City.
