Andrew, 47, has not yet commented. MailOnline has contacted their representatives.
In 2018, Nora revealed that Anthony Hopkins sent her “over three dozen red roses” after discovering she was sick while talking to Andrew on the set of King Lear.
Anthony, 86, starred in the BBC’s Shakespeare adaptation as an ‘English Stalin’ with Andrew playing Edgar, who becomes Lear’s secret protector.
She told RTE’s Ryan Tubridy at the time: “There were probably over three dozen red roses and stuck to them was a little card from Anthony saying, ‘Go well, sending you hugs’ and all sorts of things.” “.
‘I was thrilled to receive such a gift and for the kind thought that promoted it.
‘Now that I have recovered, I can enjoy these exquisite roses that adorn our living room. “It was such a beautiful gift.”
She defended the actor amid reports that Anthony had not spoken to his daughter Abigail, his only child, for two decades.
He was said to have “not cared” about the family split and admitted he was “cold” towards his daughter, who uses the name Abigail Harrison.

Nora added: “My son Andrew said Anthony had a positive attitude to life and was absolutely lovely to work with.”
In January, Andrew and his co-star Paul Mescal admitted that they weren’t too keen on their family members seeing their new film All Of Us Strangers.
The film stars Andrew as a screenwriter who returns to his childhood home and forms a relationship with a mysterious neighbor, played by 27-year-old Paul.
The film features several intimate scenes between the actors that the couple discussed during an appearance on The Graham Norton Show.
When asked if their families had seen the film yet, Paul said: “With the Irish release, trying to allocate tickets to all the uncles and aunts is a tricky business. They’ve seen my ass before, but I’d say there’s something else in this movie!’
Andrew added: ‘I don’t want to be there when my parents see it!’
