Two months after Kate Beckinsale revealed that she had been hospitalized for an undisclosed health issue, the 50-year-old actress is now opening up about her “rough year.”
“It’s been a rough year,” Beckinsale told People at the inaugural King’s Trust Gala in New York City on Thursday – which marks her first public appearance since her hospitalization. “Because my parents have both been unwell and my cat … it’s been a bunch of things. So that’s why it’s nice to come and see friends and have a little perspective. Everyone’s had a bit of a rough year, I think.”

“Thank you to those that love us and support us when it’s s— and try to make sure there are some bits that aren’t,” she wrote in the caption. “And for looking after our dogs when we can’t, and lead us to remember happy things when we can’t.”
