No it's not a rumour, he actually said this, but as I always take anything Hopkins says with "a grain of salt" I wouldn't guarantee that she actually made him promise this. She was supposed to be "dying" when he made the promise and it was at the time, a good publicity sob-story stunt.
But it came from Hopkins. No one even knew that he had a mother. And when a little money came along to entice him, he quickly forgot about his "promise to his dying mother"......
