Not everyone was keen to draw her like one of their French girls. 

In a recent podcast interview, Kate Winslet, 47, revealed that she got called “fat” during the debate about whether both Jack (Leonardo DiCaprio) and Rose (Winslet) could fit on that door in “Titanic.” Winslet said that the comments she heard in the media at the time the movie came out in 1997 were “bullying” and “borderline abusive.”

The hit movie ended with a tearjerker finale that had Rose surviving on top of the floating door, while her lover Jack froze to death in the water. Afterward, some takes that Winslet heard about why they couldn’t both fit on that door were, “Apparently, I was too fat. Isn’t it awful? Why were they so mean to me? They were so mean. I wasn’t even f–king fat.”

The Oscar-winning actress said these comments on the “Happy Sad Confused” podcast, ahead of the film’s 25th anniversary. During that interview, she also finally weighed in on the famous door debate.

“I have to be honest: I actually don’t believe that we would have survived if we had both gotten on that door,” she said. “I think he would have fit, but it would have tipped and it would not have been a sustainable idea.”

She has some regrets about how she handled the argument that she was “too fat” at the time, she said. 

“If I could turn back the clock, I would have used my voice in a completely different way. … I would have responded, ‘Don’t you dare treat me like this. I’m a young woman, my body is changing, I’m figuring it out, I’m deeply insecure, I’m terrified, don’t make this any harder than it already is.’ That’s bullying, you know, and actually borderline abusive, I would say.”
