“Go do some squats @katebeckinsale I think ur ass ran away,” the commenter said.
Kate replied, “Actually, I watched my stepfather die quite shockingly, my mother has stage 4 cancer, and I lost a lot of weight from stress and grief, quite quickly. And then I was in 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 l’m not really concerned about what you think about my ass. Maybe you should worry about your own f—ing ass. I suggest shoving something up it — like a large pineapple or a brick,” she added.
In another comment, Kate told fans that her health is “great now.”
