The actress reacted emotionally to the criticism. It turned out that she is struggling with a disease that arose due to strong negative experiences. The recent death of her stepfather triggered Kate’s memories of how her birth father died – the girls were five years old at the time.
“I spent six weeks in the hospital due to profuse vomiting of blood caused by a stressful year of putting a hole between my esophagus and stomach. All of that contributed to some weight loss. And what you think about my appearance and what I should look like, regardless of any circumstances in my life and my family’s life, is not important at all,” Beckinsale pointed out.
The actress assured that she tries to cope with the difficulties, but it is given to her difficult. She is experiencing both physical and mental problems. “I’m trying to survive and get over the losses that seem unbearable and trigger PTSD again because I found my very young father dying when I was a very young child, at night and alone,” Kate bitterly reported in her personal blog.
