Winslet 'soldiering on' after divorce

Kate Winslet has revealed that she is “soldiering on” after her divorce from Sam Mendes, but feels she is at the start of a “new narrative”.

The Oscar-winning starlet, who split from the film-maker last year after seven years of marriage, admitted she preferred to forge on ahead with her two children and keep a rein on her emotions.

“As a woman, especially when you have children, one gets so good at soldiering on – almost too good. I probably had very few moments of allowing that sadness to emerge,” she told Harper’s Bazaar.

“I kept pushing it away, not even really sharing it a huge amount with friends.”
