Kate Beckinsale was in no mood to let trolls steal her thunder by making comments about her recent body weight toward the end of last year. She fired back at users who shared their unsolicited opinions about her physique on Instagram.

“It’s not a criticism, but I think you’ve lost too much weight lately,” one person wrote on Tuesday, December 31, according to Page Six.

Beckinsale responded, “If it’s not criticism, it's a passive-aggressive, completely unnecessary opinion from someone I don’t know who knows nothing about my circumstances. So next time you feel like commenting on someone’s body, I suggest you keep it to your f–ing self.”

To a user who advised her to gain some weight, Beckinsale replied, “Not all of us want t***ies like yours,” and to another who inquired, “What happened to K. Beckinsale?” she responded, “She’s dead. So please end donations and flowers to @refugecharity.”

One person asked, “Esta muy delgada. Todo bien el casa?” which translates to “She’s very thin. Is everything OK at home?” Beckinsale fired back, “Everything is absolutely great, f–k off.”

Beckinsale had previously given a similarly scathing response in July 2024 to someone who made a joke about her “A**" disappearing. 

“I watched my stepfather [director Roy Battersby] die quite shockingly; my mother has stage 4 cancer, and I lost a lot of weight from stress and grief quite quickly,” she explained.

Beckinsale revealed that stress and grief “burned a hole” in her esophagus, causing her to vomit copious amounts of blood, for which she required weeks of critical care. She noted that she found eating very hard and was working on a movie that was quite triggering because it involved the theme of her father’s death.

She told the troll that, amid dealing with all her life complications, she was least concerned about what they or others had to say about her body.

Beckinsale’s recent slamming of trolls, for the record, was under a post that has since been deleted, according to Page Six.
