post featuring British comedian Rowan Atkinson, renowned for his character “Mr. Bean,” circulated on social media platforms, showing his declining health. The post included two pictures: one showing the comedian looking frail and another of his famous character “Mr. Bean.”

Commentators captioned it: “Mr. Bean in the present vs. the past.”

 

 
The image gained significant attention on Facebook, given Atkinson’s widespread popularity, particularly for his comedic role in the series “Mr. Bean,” which debuted in 1990.Atkinson, aged 69, has enjoyed a career spanning approximately 44 years as an actor and screenwriter.

However, the circulating image suggesting he suffers from health issues is misleading and fabricated.

Searching for the image on search engines leads to the original version featuring another individual.

Publishers altered the photo by changing Atkinson’s face, misleadingly implying he is unwell.

The photo was initially published in 2020 among various articles by local British websites.

The details describe an elderly man who reportedly battled chronic illnesses and tragically passed away due to challenges accessing necessary medical treatments, reportedly denied by England’s National Health Service.

On the seventh of this month, Atkinson appeared in a video interview published by Sky Sport during the Formula 1 race, appearing healthy contrary to the portrayal in the edited image.
