If there’s one thing we can always rely on Kate Winslet for, it’s her pure honesty about getting down and dirty in sex scenes. 

The Oscar-winning actress has revealed how she refused to let the Mare of Easttown director edit out a ‘bulgy bit of belly’ during her sex scene with Guy Pearce in the critically acclaimed HBO crime drama. 

It’s just one of the many reasons why Kate is a screen icon – there aren’t too many actresses who would be willing to go unfiltered during the most intimate of scenes they could film.

However, Kate is all about keeping it real. 

She’s been captured in the act several times throughout her career, with films including Titanic, Revolutionary Road and Ammonite. 

As she proves yet again why she’s relatable, here’s a look back at all the times Kate was honest about on-screen sex.

Kate, 45, starred alongside Saoirse Ronan as paleontologist Mary Anning, who falls passionately in love with geologist Charlotte Murchison (Ronan), before being faced with the idea that they might have to live their lives apart.
