Keep reading to find out more… On the harsh spotlight on her body during the making of Titanic: “I actually felt a bit beaten up by it, truth be told…I had a lovely family, but all my family saw is ‘My God, Kate’s got work in a really big film.’ One doesn’t want to turn around to your mum and dad and say, ‘It’s really hard, actually.’ On looking at pictures from this year’s Met Gala: “I really was smiling, because every single image of the women on the red carpet, every woman is sharing their body in the way they want to, on their terms.

And knowing they can do that safely, because the media is not going to criticize them. And that is completely different from the way it used to be in 1998, 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002…This shit went on for years.” On portraying Mare Sheehan in Mare of Easttown: “You just wanted to cozy up on the couch with her and watch some sh-t TV and eat cheese balls.

It was probably quite nice for audiences to see an actress typically known for being a leading lady in films become completely undone.
