Academy Award-winning actress Kate Winslet has candidly shared her experiences with harsh body-shaming during her childhood, discussing the impact it had on her self-image and health.
During an appearance on BBC Radio 4's Desert Island Discs, Winslet mentioned that one encounter with a drama teacher who suggested that her success would hinge on her willingness to accept 'fat girl parts.' Reflecting on the lasting impact of those remarks, Winslet told host Lauren Laverne: 'It's appalling the things people say to children.'
