Shailene Woodley reveals Kate Winslet’s powerful life-changing advice 

Shailene Woodley recently appeared on The Drew Barrymore Show, where she expressed gratitude for Kate Winslet’s guidance early in her career.

Woodley, 32, reflected on her journey, saying, “I’ve been blessed to have people, at a young age, show up in a really real, truthful, pure way.”

After rising to fame with The Secret Life of the American Teenager, Divergent, The Fault in Our Stars, and Big Little Lies, Woodley credited Winslet, 48, for offering valuable advice.

Barrymore asked, “Did Kate Winslet actually, was she someone who was, like, a good sounding board for you?”

Woodley replied, “Beyond. I mean, you guys, she’s so, not to overuse the word real, but she’s just real. She is who she is, and she’s not afraid to be who she is. And she’s done the hard work.”

Barrymore mentioned a quote from Winslet: “I wish I had had the gumption and confidence that I have now as a woman, as a young girl when I came out in Titanic and, particularly men, commented on my body shape and size and how I would not have allowed that at all and I would have shut it down right there and then.”

Woodley shared, “But you know what’s cool about that is she maybe didn’t do that for herself but she did do it for me. She absolutely did.”

Woodley recalled working with Winslet on Divergent and Insurgent, saying, “I was 21. I had all, you know, the influx of public life and being told ‘you should look a certain way’ or ‘you should be a certain thing’ or ‘don’t eat that’ or ‘do this’ or ‘dye your hair a different color’.”

Winslet intervened, sitting Woodley down and saying, “No, no, no, that’s not who you are. This is the truth.”

Woodley credited Winslet for shaping her identity: “She gave me that moment. And I wouldn’t— I would not be who I am today without her, singlehandedly.”

The confusion began when Max shared images celebrating the 30th anniversary of Friends, featuring a screenshot from the iconic episode The One Where No One’s Ready

Royal family issues reassuring update about cancer-stricken King Charles

Buckingham Palace released a major life update about King Charles, who has been undergoing cancer treatment. 

The monarch marked the 25th anniversary of the Scottish Parliament by delivering a meaningful speech on September 29. 

The royal family released delightful photos of Charles greeting the members of the parliament on their official social media handle.

In the shared pictures, King Charles was seen beaming with joy, hinting at his positive recovery from cancer. 

Alongside photos, the statement issued by the palace reads, “At today’s events to celebrate 25 years of the Scottish Parliament, The King and Queen met ‘community heroes’ – people who are making a huge difference in their local areas – as well as young people from the length and breath of the country.”

“Their Majesties were welcomed by the First Minister of Scotland, John Swinney, and other Scottish Party Leaders.”

It is pertinent to mention that Buckingham Palace left the world in shock by announcing King Charles’s undisclosed form of cancer in February 2024. 

Since then, the royal fans have been worried about the monarch’s health. However, in a recent public appearance, the King of England appeared healthy and determined to fight back from his disease.

Jennifer Lopez, Ben Affleck’s divorce takes ugly turn amid rising tensions

The divorce between Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck has taken a heated turn, with sources close to the couple revealing deep-seated resentment from Lopez.

Despite efforts to maintain a civil relationship for their children, tensions are escalating.

A recent outing at the Beverly Hills Hotel with Affleck’s children, Samuel and Fin, and Lopez’s twins, Max and Emme, turned tense.

Lopez appeared emotional, wiping away a tear, while Affleck remained stoic.

A source close to Lopez told In Touch: “Jennifer would never make a scene in front of the kids, but she’s made it clear she’ll never forgive Ben for being such a coldhearted jerk and giving up on their marriage.”

The couple’s fragile truce is wearing thin, with Lopez trying to finalise the divorce without public outbursts.

However, Affleck’s refusal to take responsibility for the marriage breakdown and dismissive gestures like rolling his eyes have fueled Lopez’s frustration.

The couple separated earlier this year, with Affleck moving into a $100,000-a-month rental before purchasing a $20 million Pacific Palisades home.

Lopez officially filed for divorce in August, marking the end of their two-year marriage.

Affleck has made it clear he won’t return to the relationship, leaving Lopez furious.

A source summed up the situation: “The sooner the ink’s dry on the divorce papers, the better it’ll be for everyone.”
