Dr. Kate Tomas did not hold back in her first public interview since she began dating Andrew Garfield. The self-described philosopher and spiritual mentor called out the public’s frustrating, misogynistic tendencies to focus on a woman’s relationship more than her accomplished career.

“It’s frustrating that no matter how accomplished or impactful a woman is, it’s always going to be more interesting if she is in a relationship with a man,” Tomas, 42, expressed in a The Sunday Times interview published on July 21. She added that she doesn't want to "sit under" anybody's shadow.

Tomas and Garfield were first spotted holding hands in March of this year. The former, in her interview, also spoke candidly about the media scrutiny of her relationship with the actor. She also expressed her frustration over the media's "misogynistic nature" of interest in her as Andrew's ladylove, which in turn results in them commenting about how she looks and trying to know what she does for work.

Criticizing the spotlight that has been forced upon her since her relationship with Garfield became public, Tomas accused the paparazzi and the tabloids of probing her life and selectively running an agenda against her.

She told the publication that the photographers would click 150 pictures, but they would post the four where she would look the worst. She went on to reveal that tabloid reporters have been knocking on the doors of her neighbors and inquiring about her personality and whether or not she’s a “good person.” As far as she is concerned, Tomas said she couldn’t care less.
