[edit] Early Life
Jamie was hit by a car when he was 9 and doctors said he had almost no chance of surviving and if he did, he would have brain damage. He was under intensive care for 3 days. The doctors almost gave up hope when a family friend demanded that the doctors check his blood. They gave Jamie a transfusion which woke him up and he started to improve. He tried out for the role of Dudley Dursley before accepting his role of Vincent Crabbe.
[edit] Drug Accusations
On April 7th 2009, Jamie Waylett and another man were rumoured to have been stopped by officers. A spokesman for the Metropolitan police could not confirm the identity of those arrested, but confirmed two 19-year-old men were arrested on April 2nd after officers stopped a car and eight bags, believed to contain cannabis, were discovered. The two occupants were then arrested and taken to a central London police station. Later that night an address was searched where a number of plants, again believed to be cannabis, and equipment used for the plant's cultivation were found. The two men have been bailed until a date in July, pending further inquiries.
Josh Herdman (who plays Gregory Goyle in the Harry Potter films) has announced that Waylett will not return to reprise his role as Crabbe in the film adaptations of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.[1]
