The star, is now happily married to Ned RocknRoll, and makes no apologies for splitting with her exes to finally find Mr. Right.

The mom of three has had plenty to celebrate along the way, including an Oscar win and two Golden Globes, but acknowledged the rough patches as well – particularly her two failed marriages. “He’s just so incredibly supportive, and he’s so much fun”, she said.

Winslet, who won her Best Actress Academy Award for the romantic drama “The Reader“, also told the UK’s GMTV in 2010 that she kept the gold-plated trophy there.

“I threw on this short, dark-haired wig, took all the makeup off my face, took a photograph and sent it – with no subject, nothing”, she remarked.

“I just don’t feel like one, and I don’t live like one either”. “It’s just, those are the cards that life dealt me”.

Winslet, who was born in Reading and went to Redroofs Theatre School in Maidenhead, also spoke about the advice she would give her younger self.

Kate was married to director Jim Threapleton for three years from 1998 to 2001, and the couple welcomed daughter Mia Honey, now 14, together in 2000.
