Kate Winslet has opened up about when a crew member suggested she sit up straighter to hide her “belly rolls” during the filming of a bikini scene in World War II drama Lee.
“There’s a bit where Lee’s sitting on a bench in a bikini… And one of the crew came up between takes and said: ‘You might want to sit up straighter.’ So you can’t see my belly rolls? Not on your life! It was deliberate, you know?”
Winslet stopped exercising before shooting Lee and that she takes pride in her features:
“It is my life on my face, and that matters. It wouldn’t occur to me to cover that up. I think people know better than to say, ‘You might wanna do something about those wrinkles’ … I’m more comfortable in myself as each year passes. It enables me to allow the opinions of others to evaporate.”
Good for Kate for embracing age and different versions of her figure. If she’s happy and healthy, that’s all that should matter!
