Kate Winslet and Ned Rocknroll dress like twins for long flight home

Kate Winslet is so in love with Ned Rocknroll that the two are now dressing alike! The Contagion and Revolutionary Road star made her arrival into Heathrow Airport from Los Angeles on Tuesday, January 17th, 2012 in London, England after taking home the “Best Performance by an Actress In A Mini-series or Motion Picture Made for Television” for her role in Mildred Pierce.

Kate and Ned (who just so happens to be Richard Branson’s nephew) made their public debut as a couple at the prestigious awards shows.

The couple met during a recent vacation at Branson’s Necker Island, while she was there with then boyfriend Louis Dowler. Winslet saved the Virgin mogul’s 90-year-old mother after a fire ravaged an estate on the property.

They looks absolutely smitten with each other, you know it must be serious if they are acting like twins!

Kate Winslet breaks her silence in Harper’s Bazaar UK

The very beautiful Kate Winslet graced the cover of Harper’s Bazaar UK magazine showing off some fierce cat eyes!

In the November issue, the actress and mother of two, opened up to the magazine about her divorce from director Sam Mendes and how aspects of her life have changed. After the couple split in March 2010, divorce proceedings began while she was filming Mildred Pierce, bringing her personal anguish into the Emmy winning role.

“There’s a scene where Mildred and Bert are divorced and they sit down together, because they’ve got to settle on a cause. The first stage of my divorce with Sam came through on the very day that we were shooting. So that scene is nothing to do with acting.”

Winslet shared that her first reaction to the break-up was to bottle up her emotions before a friend encouraged her to let everything out.

“One thing I will say about me and Sam is that it’s fine, it’s really fine. We’re grown-ups at the end of the day, and however hard it’s been for me, it’s been equally hard for him.”

The 35-year-old is also reportedly dating Sir Richard Branson’s nephew Ned Rocknroll. The two met following the house fire on Branson’s private island where they were both guests at the time.

“I do truly feel that I’m back. I feel that I’m just at the beginning of a new narrative, and it’s incredibly exciting. It’s complicated, I know, and uncertain but it’s where life happens, between the cracks. It can be a painful process, but I truly hope that never stops for me.”

Kate Winslet STUNS at Venice Film Festival

Ok, I know I use the word stunning a lot because I get really excited about fashion but when I say anything in all caps you know I REALLY mean it. Kate Winslet looked absolutely beautiful in her black & white Stella McCartney dress at the “Mildred Pierce” Premiere during the 68th Venice International Film Festival at Palazzo del Cinema on Friday, September 2nd, 2011 in Venice, Italy.

I love how the white panel in the front gives an extra slimming effect, not that Ms. Winslet needs it!

We can’t let this post end without mentioning the gorgeous YSL heels she paired with her ensemble. I think I swoon over shoes almost as much as I do for hot men.

Mildred Pierce depicts an overprotective, self-sacrificing mother during the Great Depression who finds herself separated from her husband, opening a restaurant of her own and falling in love with a new man, all the while trying to earn her narcissistic daughter’s love and respect.

The miniseries aired on HBO earlier this year to rave reviews.
