Read our privacy policy Kate Winslet has recalled being “bullied” and “subjected to physical scrutiny” by the British press in the wake of Titanic. “I remember cars and cars full of British tabloid photographers who were photographing me going and buying a pint of milk and a newspaper, and that was just weird,” Winslet told Marc Maron’s WTF Podcast. “It was like night and day from one day to the next.” She continued: “I was subjected to quite a lot of personal physical scrutiny, and I was criticised quite a lot. It did definitely pass, but it also made me realise that if that was what being famous was, I was not ready to be famous.” Winslet added that she “strategically” backed away from big-budget films after Titanic, instead choosing to make smaller independent movies as she was “still learning how to act”.
