Kate Beckinsale recently took to Instagram to address concerns from fans about her weight. The actress, known for her role in the Underworld franchise, was forced to defend herself after trolls made unwarranted comments about her appearance in one of her posts. In the now-deleted clip, she can be seen wearing a black retro dress and sporting a sky-high hairdo as she prepared for her upcoming role in the 90s-based film Stolen Girl.
Despite having a fun time on set, some users on Instagram were quick to criticize her appearance, with many suggesting that she was "too thin." Another comment even went so far as to say, "Please eat something. I love you, but I'm very worried about your skinny look." Kate, however, did not hold back in her response to these comments.
The 50-year-old actress, who has been through a lot in her personal life, addressed the comments by stating that she is simply "trying to survive." She lost her stepdad earlier this year and her mother is currently battling health issues. On top of that, she also lost her beloved cat and has been dealing with her own health problems. Kate shared that she spent six weeks in the hospital due to stress-induced vomiting, and she also experienced a severe flare-up of her mast cell disease.
Kate continued to defend herself against the criticism, stating that her appearance should not be the focus, especially considering the traumatic events she has been through. She also called out a user for "bullying females about their appearance" and urged them to "do better." The actress made it clear that what matters to her is "trying to survive" and supporting her family in the midst of all this loss.
In another comment, Kate fired back at someone who suggested she needed to gain weight, simply writing "enough." This comes after the actress appeared to issue a warning to an unnamed abuser on Instagram, stating that their "time is coming." This was in response to a video that resurfaced of rapper Sean 'Diddy' Combs assaulting his ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura in 2016.
Kate's message is clear - no one should get away with abuse and she is not afraid to speak out against it. She also made it clear that she does not care about anyone's opinions on her appearance, as she is dealing with much bigger and more important issues in her life. Kate ended her post by urging fans to do better and shared that she does not want to hear anyone's "taste in women" because it is not relevant or important.
