Kate Beckinsale is not mincing her words.
The Underworld starlet called out the British Academy of Film and Television Arts for informing her they might not ensure her late stepfather, Roy Battersby, would be honored in an upcoming In Memoriam sector.
Beckinsale shared that after her stepfather passed awayJan 10 due to a stroke, she connected to the BAFTAs to attempt to honor the 87- year-old. However, she stated the group informed her “they ‘could not guarantee’ he would be included in their ‘in memoriam’ tribute,” which would air at the BAFTA Television Awards in May.
“So a man dead less than a week somehow has to audition in front of a committee after a decades long career,” she composed on InstagramJan 18, “to decide IF his death is worth mentioning.”
The 50- year-old shared her outrage together with an image of her stepfather, her mom and herself from 1996, when she provided him with BAFTA’s Alan Clarke Award for his work as a tv director, keeping in mind that his distinction indicates he ought to for that reason be consisted of.
