Kate Winslet discusses her body image battle following her Titanic role as Rose.

The actress disclosed on the Happy Sad Confused podcast that viewers made frivolous remarks about her body.

“Apparently I was too fat.”

“Why were they so mean to me? They were so mean. I wasn’t even f*****g fat,” she explained.

“I would have responded,” Kate wished.

“I would have said, ‘Don’t you dare treat me like this. I’m a young woman, my body is changing, I’m figuring it out, I’m deeply insecure, I’m terrified, don’t make this any harder than it already is’.

“‘That’s bullying, you know, and actually borderline abusive’, I would say,” she admits.

In the 1997 film, Winslet co-starred alongside Leonardo DiCaprio.
