<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Kate Beckinsale has finally revealed the reason for her mysterious weeks-long hospital stay earlier this year and admitted that she lost &#8220;a lot of weight from stress and grief.”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In a post on Instagram, the 50-year-old actress hit back at comments from trolls about her body after one person wrote, “Go do some squats [katebeckinsale] I think [your] a** ran away,” </span><a href="https://www.usmagazine.com/celebrity-body/news/kate-beckinsale-says-grief-and-loss-led-to-6-week-hospital-stay/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">US Weekly</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> reported.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“No, actually. I watched my </span><a href="https://pagesix.com/2024/01/16/entertainment/kate-beckinsales-stepfather-roy-battersby-dead-at-87/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">stepfather [British TV director Roy Battersby] die</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> quite shockingly, my mother has stage 4 cancer, and I lost a lot of weight from stress and grief, quite quickly,” she responded to the commenter.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Beckinsale said she was “in the hospital for six weeks because the grief had ‘burned a hole’ in my esophagus, which made me vomit copious amounts of blood.”</span></p>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“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 I’m not really concerned about what you think about my a**,” the “Serendipity” star wrote.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“Maybe you should worry about your own f**king a**,” the actress added. “I suggest shoving something up it — like a large pineapple or a brick.”</span></p>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“Every time I post anything — and by the way, this has been the case since I was about 30 — I am accused of having had unrecognizable surgery/using Botox using fillers/being obsessed with looking younger, and it’s really such a tiresome and subtly vicious way to bully a person,” Beckinsale wrote on </span><a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/C6lgGS4r9k5/?img_index=7"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Instagram</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“I don’t actually do any of those things — I’ve even gone to the trouble of having a plastic surgeon categorically state that I don’t and haven’t, and still, every time there’s a chorus of ‘my God, you’re unrecognizable,’” she added. “‘Oh my God PLASTIC, oh my God, you don’t even look like yourself anymore,’ it happens constantly and it’s usually women that are doing it.”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">She closed out her post noting that she’s fully aware that even saying all this “will have absolutely no effect” on those bullying her.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The &#8220;Click&#8221; star&#8217;s post comes after her family&#8217;s loss of her stepfather.

He was 87.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">At the time, Beckinsale shared a video of her stepfather and wrote on </span><a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/C2JKFepJxNw/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">social media</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">, “I have no words yet .

<p><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/kate-beckinsale"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Kate Beckinsale</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> shut down plastic surgery rumors and said the</span><span style="font-weight: 400;"> “</span><span style="font-weight: 400;">insidious bullying” over time takes a toll on her mental health — following a hospital stay in March for an </span><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/kate-beckinsales-no-context-hospital-photos-sound-alarm-bells-from-fans"><span style="font-weight: 400;">undisclosed health issue</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In a lengthy post on Sunday on </span><a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/C6lgGS4r9k5/?img_index=7"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Instagram</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">, the 50-year-old actress posted two videos, one of her twenty years ago and another more recent, and said that the only reason she looks different is that she’s aged. However, she was adamant that she had not undergone any surgery to change her looks and asked people to stop bullying her.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“Every time I post anything — and by the way, this has been the case since I was about 30 — I am accused of having had unrecognizable surgery/using Botox using fillers/being obsessed with looking younger, and it’s really such a tiresome and subtly vicious way to bully a person,” Beckinsale wrote.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“I don’t actually do any of those things — I’ve even gone to the trouble of having a plastic surgeon categorically state that I don’t and haven’t, and still, every time there’s a chorus of ‘my God, you’re unrecognizable,’” she added. “‘Oh my God PLASTIC, oh my God, you don’t even look like yourself anymore,’ it happens constantly and it’s usually women that are doing it.”</span></p>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“Life happens — obviously I have aged, everybody ages,” Beckinsale continued. “I’m not too concerned about aging — because I found my father dead at the age of 5, I spent most of my teenage years and a good deal of my 20s absolutely crippled with severe anxiety and panic attacks that I was going to die of a heart attack too, and went to emergency rooms often, and was almost, at that time of my life, completely immobilized by that anxiety.”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The “Click” star noted that the difference in the two videos was things like how she had “paler” skin because she “lived in the UK” or used to pluck her eyebrows too much, and most noticeably had a “fuller face” because she was younger.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">She closed out her post noting that she’s fully aware that even saying all this “will have absolutely no effect&#8221; on those bullying her.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“It isn’t going to stop,” Beckinsale wrote. “But I’m also posting it because whatever someone looks like, accusing them constantly of things they haven’t done, or being obsessed with youth when actually, currently I’m obsessed with surviving loss, is bullying. Please stop now.”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The “Serendipity” star’s post comes as her family has been dealing with the loss of her step-father, British TV director Roy Battersby. He died in January of a “massive stroke” while battling cancer, </span><a href="https://pagesix.com/2024/03/11/entertainment/kate-beckinsale-hospitalized-thanks-mom-for-support/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Page Six</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> noted.

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">&#8220;Thank you for loving us, those who do, and for the amazing, kindest Nick, and especially for my mother&#8217;s capacity for joy,&#8221; the actress&#8217; post continued. &#8220;It is so inspiring and beautiful. Happy everything mama. Your fight for joy despite also welcoming tears is the experience of watching a warrior up close. I love you.&#8221;</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Shortly after the &#8220;Click&#8221; star&#8217;s post surfaced, fans took to social media and expressed their concern about why Beckinsale was in the hospital, </span><a href="https://toofab.com/2024/03/11/kate-beckinsale-worries-fans-after-sharing-pictures-from-hospital-bed/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">TooFab</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> noted.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">&#8220;I pray for your recovery, whatever it is you may be going through,&#8221; one person wrote.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Another </span><a href="https://pagesix.com/2024/03/11/entertainment/kate-beckinsale-hospitalized-thanks-mom-for-support/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">added</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">, &#8220;No context hospital pics don&#8217;t sit well with me.&#8221;</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">While a third echoed a similar sentiment, &#8220;Your praying warriors are always with you and your family! Get better soon!!&#8221;</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">It is unclear whether the hospital pictures were new or old. The last known health scare that Beckinsale dealt with personally was in 2019 when she shared with followers that she suffered a ruptured ovarian cyst, </span><a href="https://people.com/kate-beckinsale-shares-teary-eyed-photo-while-sick-in-the-hospital-8607559?hid=4f90b78dc31e627328d98338e1fa49d03b364abc&amp;did=12250584-20240311&amp;utm_source=ppl&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_campaign=people-news_newsletter&amp;utm_content=031124&amp;lctg=4f90b78dc31e627328d98338e1fa49d03b364abc"><span style="font-weight: 400;">People magazine</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> noted.</span></p>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">&#8220;Turns out a ruptured ovarian cyst really hurts and morphine makes me cry. So thankful to everyone who looked after me,&#8221; she captioned her post at the time.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The &#8220;Serendipity&#8221; star&#8217;s post comes as her family has been dealing with the loss of her step father, British TV director Roy Battersby. He died in January of a &#8220;massive stroke&#8221; while battling cancer, Page Six noted. He was 87.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">At the time, Beckinsale shared a video of her step father and wrote on </span><a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/C2JKFepJxNw/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">social media</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">,</span><span style="font-weight: 400;"> &#8220;I have no words yet .
