Kate Winslet’s confidence struggle

OHMYGOSSIP — Kate Winslet’s confidence was “damaged” by comments about her body.
The 45-year-old actress admitted she felt “very on her own” as she struggled with the world’s obsession with her weight and figure when she was a young actress breaking into Hollywood, but insisted things really changed when she welcomed her daughter Mia at the age of 25 and her worries “evaporated”.
She shared: “It damaged my confidence. I didn’t want to go to Hollywood because I remember thinking, ‘God, if this is what they’re saying to me in England, then what will happen when I get there?’ Also, it tampers with your evolving impression of what’s beautiful, you know? I did feel very on my own
“For the simple reason that nothing can really prepare you for … that. But then of course, I had Mia when I was 25. And so all that s*** just kind of … evaporated.”
And the ‘Titanic’ star found it “almost laughable” about how “straight-up cruel” people were to her about her figure and how she looked.
Speaking to The Observer, she added: “In my 20s, people would talk about my weight a lot. I would be called to comment on my physical self. Well, then I got this label of being ballsy and outspoken. No, I was just defending myself. And it was almost laughable how shocking, how critical, how straight-up cruel [people] were to me. I was still figuring out who the hell I bloody well was! They would comment on my size, they’d estimate what I weighed, they’d print the supposed diet I was on. It was critical and horrible and so upsetting to read. But … But it also made me feel so … so moved. By how different it is now.”
