Tom Holland got ‘so behind’ on his water bill because he thought it was free in the U.K.
The Hollywood actor, 27, admitted he ‘didn’t realise’ he had to foot the bill for any water he used while staying at his luxury property.
Appearing in a Jay Shetty podcast last year, Tom said he has now paid off the lump sum after months of thinking water was free and a ‘luxury of living in England’.
Calling for life lessons to be taught more in schools, Tom said: ‘I’ve done so much of my growing up on the road, I needed to do a lot of growing up at home.
‘Paying my water bill, paying my council tax, and sorting out my bins and all that sort of stuff that they don’t teach you at school.

‘Paying my water bill, paying my council tax, and sorting out my bins and all that sort of stuff that they don’t teach you at school. I didn’t realise you had to pay for your water. I just thought that was a luxury of living in England.
‘Yeah, the water comes out the sky and then it comes out your tap. I was so behind on my water bill. I didn’t realise, I’m up to date now. Don’t worry.’
Tom is estimated to have a £19million net worth thanks to his Hollywood role as Spider-Man.
