Kate was born into a family of actors Roger Winslet and Sally Bridges. Their other two daughters, Beth and Anna, also became actresses, albeit much less fortunate than Kate.

Despite the poverty, they traveled all over France, sleeping in a tent, did not miss a single music festival.
Feeling an early interest in the stage, at the age of 11, Kate began to study the basics of acting at the Redroofs Theater School and studied there until 1992.

The plot of the film is set in Victorian England in the 1840s. Two women meet, fall in love with each other, and a romantic relationship is struck between them. In a recent interview with The Hollywood Reporter, the actress talked about filming the film's most revealing scene.
“Saoirse and I staged this scene ourselves. Of course, it's not as easy as picking up and eating a sandwich. Francis was very nervous while filming this episode. But Saoirse and I felt safe. I was proud to act in this scene. At the same time, I was absolutely not shy, ”says the actress.
Since 2012, Keith has been married to Ned Rocknroll (real name - Abel Sith), the nephew of billionaire Richard Branson. Prior to this marriage, Kate was married twice - to director Jim Tripleton and director Sam Mendes. The actress has three children - Mia, Joe and Bear.
Kate is known as a supporter of PETA, an organization that fights for the merciful treatment of animals. Winslet has repeatedly advocated boycotting restaurants that offer foie gras.
In addition, the actress is not at all arrogant. In one of the interviews, she told about a funny incident.
“One day I was on the subway before Christmas, and one of the girls turned around and asked, 'Are you Kate Winslet?' I replied: "Yes, it really is me." And she asked: "Do you take the subway?" And I answered: “Yes”. And then she was surprised: "Don't you have a big car that would take you everywhere?" And I say: "No". And she was completely overwhelmed that I didn't drive around in a huge car. It was very funny, ”says Keith.
In addition, she supports women a lot in accepting themselves. “I had a big belly and my breasts changed a lot after two children. I didn't tell myself, looking in the mirror, that I was beautiful. I don't believe in ideal at all. I said: “This is what I am now, look at the imperfect me,” - said the actress in an interview.
Well, it just seems to us that Kate is the way she is now, just almost perfect. Let's consider this a toast in honor of her 45th birthday.
