Kate Beckinsale is clapping back at a troll who claimed her dog will die while she battles health issues of her own.

Sharing a screenshot of the message to her Instagram Stories, Beckinsale wrote, “Both my dads are dead so I guess my mum will do, you could also say. If you really meant for me not to see this you could have deleted it. You chose not to.”
She continued, “You wanted me to feel pain. I already do, in many ways. Don’t feel you need to message me again. Please.”
Beckinsale revealed she was in the hospital earlier this week in a post shared to mark UK Mother’s Day.
The photo carousel, which sees several shots of the the Underworld actress’s mother, also showed an ailing Beckinsale, who was pictured in a hospital bed with tear-filled eyes.

Kate’s mother has also been battling stage four cancer, per a previous Instagram post by Beckinsale. Beckinsale also lost her beloved cat, Clive, last June.

Beckinsale’s previously opened up about living with a condition called mast cell activation syndrome (MCAS), which she described to People in May 2023 as “a massive daily struggle,” adding that she can “react to hundreds of things badly.”
According to Healthline, MCAS manifests with symptoms similar to allergies, primarily impacting a person’s skin, nervous system, heart, and gastrointestinal tract. The condition causes mast cells to release too much of a substance that triggers the reactions.
