CNN —Kate Beckinsale is revealing a little more about what led to her hospitalization earlier this year. The “Underworld” star opened up about her health scare in an unlikely forum – the comments of her verified Instagram while replying to haters and well-wishers alike. After one Instagram user left an rude comment about her physical appearance in a recent video, Beckinsale replied with details about her personal life, writing that she was struggling after her stepfather’s recent death and her mother’s stage 4 cancer diagnosis. “I lost a lot of weight from stress and grief, quite quickly and then I was in hospital for six weeks because the grief had burned a hole in my oesophagus which made me vomit copious amounts of blood,” she wrote in reply. Replying to another commenter who asked in a kinder manner about her wellbeing this week, Beckinsale said her heath was “great now.”
