It seems it takes a lot to distract Kate Winslet from her mummy duties! The Titanic actress experienced her first earthquake on Monday, but continued expressing breast milk as the room around her shook.
Kate was in Los Angeles when the city was hit by a 4.4 magnitude quake as she was pumping milk to feed her 14-week-old baby.
“I’ve never been in an earthquake. No, never,” Kate told The Ellen DeGeneres Show yesterday. “And so it’s 6:20 something or other and I’m sitting in the hotel here in LA and I’m pumping because I have a 14-week-old baby [Bear Blaze].
“I’m here for 48 hours I couldn’t bring him. It’s too far – it’s a 12-hour plane ride. And so I’m pumping, starting at my beautiful picture of my beautiful baby boy and my husband’s on the other line and the room starts to shake.
“So, I said, ‘I’ve got to go. I got to call you back.'”
The Oscar-winner hung up the phone and ran into the doorframe – one of the safest places in a room in an earthquake – with her friend, keeping her breast pump going the whole time.
“I just carried on pumping through the whole entire thing,” the actress said, laughing.
