“I’ll share something I’ve never shared before. Some of my first intimate experiences as a young teen were actually with girls,” she revealed. “I’d kissed a few girls, and I’d kissed a few boys, but I wasn’t particularly evolved in either direction.”
“At that stage in my life, I certainly was curious, and I think there was something about the really intense connection that those two women had that I profoundly understood,” Kate continued. “I was so immediately sucked into the vortex of that world they were in that obviously became horrendously damaging to both of them, and they had huge insecurities and vulnerabilities.”
Kate recently just released her directorial debut, Goodbye June, which was written by her son Joe Anders. Find out what critics said about the film!
