Kate Beckinsale Reflects on Hospitalization Experience and Confronts Body Critics
Some of Kate Beckinsale‘s followers are not spreading love and friendship.
Recently, the actress from Love & Friendship fired back at her social media critics.
“Let’s have a toast for the douche bags,” Kate wrote on Instagram July 8 alongside a video of herself dressed in a pink hamster outfit, a black hairnet, matching bow, and knee-high boots. “Let’s have a toast for the a–holes. Let’s have a toast for the scumbags.”
She also had a response for her body-shamers. When a social media user commented on the video saying, “Go do some squats @katebeckinsale I think ur ass ran away,” the star of Pearl Harbor quickly replied.
“No, actually, I watched my stepfather die shockingly, my mother has stage 4 cancer,” she explained, “and I lost a lot of weight from stress and grief, quite quickly.”
Kate added, “and then I was in the hospital for six weeks because the grief had burned a hole in my esophagus which made me vomit copious amounts of blood, and I found eating very hard and I just worked very, very hard on a movie that was actually quite triggering because it also involved the theme of the death of my father so I’m not really concerned about what you think about my ass.”
She concluded her message with some advice.
“Maybe you should worry about your own f–king ass,” the actress from Underworld continued. “I suggest shoving something up it-like a large pineapple or a brick.”
