Interviewed by Bazaar Editor-in-Chief Justine Picardie, Winslet said, “I’ve really learned a great deal about myself, in the last four years in particular. I think I can see more clearly now -- about how the pattern of past experiences has shaped who I am, and the characters I have played -- and I’m grateful for that. I have so much more material to draw on for work -- rubble, bricks -- and I know I can carry it now. I’m not going to drop it, and if I do, I’ll sift through it. Does that make any sense at all? Probably not…”

As for the British monarch, Kate gushed, “Oh my God, she [the Queen] looks amazing. Beautiful skin -- and wonderful thick hair. She looked really well and pretty and fresh, and she was wearing a lovely pale yellow dress.”
