Kate Beckinsale may be a Hollywood veteran (she appeared in her first television show when she was just three!), but there's still so much fans don't know about this English beauty.
To fix that, here are tons of interesting things about her!
Kate Beckinsale may be a Hollywood veteran (she appeared in her first television show when she was just three!), but there's still so much fans don't know about this English beauty.
To fix that, here are tons of interesting things about her!
The Underworld actress has a 20-year-old daughter named Lily Mo Sheen.
Kate had Lily with her ex, Michael Sheen, who she dated from 1995 to 2003.
Speaking of Michael, Kate broke up with the actor after she instantly connected with her Underworld director, Len Wiseman.
While the pair got married, they eventually split in 2016.
"Turns out a ruptured ovarian cyst really hurts and morphine makes me cry. So thankful to everyone who looked after me #wobbly," she captioned this heartbreaking image of her in the hospital.
Kate and the SNL star were first spotted getting cozy at Netflix’s Golden Globes afterparty in January 2019.
Despite their 20-year age difference, they were beyond smitten for each other.
The pair split later that year in April, citing "long-distance" as the issue.
Pearl Habor may have made her a breakthrough actress, but nothing was worth the hurtful comments she received from director Michael Bay.
"I think he was baffled by me because my boobs weren't bigger than my head and I wasn't blonde," she said on The Graham Norton Show.
So flexible that people once thought that she had a rubber leg!
Kate credits her insane stretching capabilities to yoga and ballet.
When Kate was growing up, she was the two-time winner of the WH Smith Young Writers Award for both fiction and poetry.
Kate's dad, Richard Beckinsale, was just 31 years old when he died in his sleep from a massive heart attack.
In 2016, she told Belfast Telegraph that her father's death was "100% soul-destroying and totally impacted me for ever.”
This is important for the actress since they co-parent their daughter together.
"He's really dear, close family," she told Popcorn With Peter Travers in 2016. "He's somebody I've known since I was 21 years old. I really love him a lot."
In an interview with The Independent, she said that she stopped eating as a result of trauma from her father's death.
Thankfully, Kate made the smart decision as a teenager to go to her mother and request help, and she seems much happier and healthier now!
Don't expect to hitch a ride with the actress.
"It's become embarrassing; it used to be a cute thing that I hadn't gotten around to doing it, but now it's become quite weird... Uber does love me," she told KCTV5 in 2016.
