December 5, 2024 by Marissa Matozzo
Kate Beckinsale has recently worried her followers with her latest public appearances and by sharing the sadness of losing both her stepfather and her cherished pet on Instagram.
Her emotional revelations followed a striking moment at Variety’s Power of Women event a few weeks back, where the Serendipity star, 51, wore a stunning satin pink corset dress featuring an elaborate skirt and detailed lacing.
The Pearl Harbor actress also became the subject of plastic surgery and Ozempic rumors, with many fans on social media commenting that she looked “unrecognizable” and significantly “different” after the Los Angeles event.
One “confused” fan on TikTok explained that they were “shook” by recent photos of Beckinsale and asked: “What happened to her?” The user added, in a recent video, echoing others: “The Kate Beckinsale that I remember is not the one that I see today.”
When Variety posted a TikTok video featuring Beckinsale on the red carpet, dazzling in her Christian Siriano dress and coordinating bubblegum platform shoes, fans flocked to the comments section to express their opinions. One fan wrote: “I audibly gasped when I realized this was Kate beckinsale. She looks unrecognizable. I hope she’s well.”
Another added: “Kate Beckinsale was absolutely beautiful in the Serendipity movie. I don’t recognize her here.” Someone else replied: “Kate Beckinsale?! Where????” One other concerned fan noted: “you cannot convince me that this is Kate Beckinsale. Some alleged that her changed appearance was due to “plastic surgery” and the use of “Ozempic” for weight loss.
The Click actress, who has previously denied undergoing plastic surgery, recently opened up about her weight loss on Instagram to her 5.6 million followers. Beckinsale explained that the weight loss was due to an esophageal tear, which hindered her ability to eat properly.
This condition was further worsened by stress and the sorrow of losing her stepfather, Roy Battersby, and her beloved cat, Clive, whom she considered her soulmate. Despite her explanation, some fans remain skeptical, speculating that she might be using Ozempic. Dr. Dennis Schimpf, a board-certified plastic surgeon based in Charleston, South Carolina, recently spoke with the Daily Mail and shared his insights.
