Hollywood star Kate Winslet has said one of her drama teachers once told her that she would have a career in acting if she settled for "fat girl parts".

Winslet — known as one of the most successful stars of her generation, with movies like Titanic and The Reader and hit series like Mare of Easttown — has often spoken about the cruelty she endured because of her appearance at the beginning of her career.
