A nanny for her children was never an option for her

Kate Winslet has been a busy actress for years. Nevertheless, she consciously let her children grow up without a nanny.
Kate Winslet (45) has been a sought-after actress since her breakthrough with “Titanic” (1997). In an interview with “Bild am Sonntag” however, the British woman makes it clear that she has never sought the help of a nanny or a cook.
On the one hand, it is of course tempting to have a nanny, to live in a sealed off luxury residential complex and to be pampered by a private chef. “I would love to have my food prepared for me every day,” explains Winslet. On the other hand, their children should grow up without Hollywood glamor. “Rather, I want you to be shocked when asked whether we have a cook.” That’s why the film star is at the stove himself and likes to get tips on TV. “I love the ‘Top Chef’ show. I’m obsessed with it.”
Kate Winslet has three children, Mia (20), Joe (17) and Bear (7). Mia comes from the marriage (1998-2001) with director Jim Threapleton (48). The marriage with director Sam Mendes (55), which lasted from 2003 to 2011, gave birth to son Joe. Winslet has been married to Edward Able Smith (43), father of Bear, since 2012.
