The Academy Award-winning actress, Kate Winslet, spills the deet's again, this time speaking to UK's Harper's Bazaar very openly about her divorce from husband actor Sam Mendes.
As a woman, especially when you have children, one gets so good at soldiering on – almost too good. Because you know what it's like – as soon as you open that can of worms, it's so f***ing big, you wish you'd never taken the damn lid off. I've had to remind myself to have those moments of being able to have a f***ing good cry, but it did take someone putting their hand on me – a gay male friend, actually, who put his hand on my shoulder and said: It's OK, you can cry about this, and maybe you should. There's a scene [in Mildred Pierce] where Mildred and Bert are divorced and they sit down together, because they've got to settle on a cause. The first stage of my divorce with Sam came through on the very day that we were shooting. So that scene is nothing to do with acting.
One thing I will say about me and Sam is that it's fine, it's really fine. We're grown-ups at the end of the day, and however hard it's been for me, it's been equally hard for him.
