Threapleton paired her Elie Saab dress—train included!—with a suite of pieces from Maison Boucheron's Quatre Radiant Edition, which the jewelers confirmed in a statement to Hello!. 'Mia Threapleton chose to wear creations from Maison Boucheron,' the statement said, and the ensemble included the Quatre Radiant Edition necklace in white gold, paved with diamonds and valued at $334,000. She also wore a matching ring valued at $61,000 and two diamond-paved ear clips priced at $2,643 each—bringing her total jewelry valuation to just over $401,000.

Just little things I picked up along the way, like changing an eye line…Little things like that, that no one teaches you. And she appreciated that stuff.' 'We had the added bonus of knowing how to push each other's buttons, which I can tell you we can do quite well and definitely lent on that resource considerably when we were filming,' Winslet continued. 'As far as performance, she didn't need me at all. There are even moments where she'd look at me and go, 'Shut up Mum, let me do it!'' Of her daughter following her footsteps into acting someday, 'I think I knew [it] was coming,' Winslet said. 'I always suspected. And then a few years ago she turned around and said, 'I'd like to give it a go.'' 'What's great for her is she has a different surname, so she slipped under the radar and the people who cast her didn't know she was my daughter, and that was important for her self-esteem, of course,' Winslet added.

Jane Fonda Gets Candid About the Painful Truth Behind Her On-Screen Sex Scenes
Jane Fonda is opening up about the emotional toll of filming intimate scenes without the protection actors now receive. At 87, the Oscar-winning actress is reflecting on her early career and revealing how much she wishes intimacy coordinators had existed back when she needed them the most. However, Fonda's assertions differ from those of actress Gwyneth Paltrow, who earlier said she didn't need an intimacy coordinator while filming "Marty Supreme" alongside Timothée Chalamet. Hollywood legend Fonda is once again sparking conversation, this time about the behind-the-scenes challenges many actors silently endured for decades. While at the 2025 Cannes Film Festival, the veteran actress revealed just how isolating and uncomfortable filming sex scenes could be during the early days of her career. In an interview with Women's Wear Daily, Fonda was asked about how the film industry has changed since the rise of the #MeToo movement. She didn't hold back. "Every time you begin a movie, you have training. What to do if there's a problem. That never happened," Fonda said per PEOPLE Magazine, noting how little guidance or protection there used to be on set. "I wish that we had them when I was doing sex scenes because it's hard," she continued. "You want me to say to a guy you're supposed to look like you're in love with and you say, 'But please don't uncover my breast on the left side.' You know, you don't do that." This isn't the first time Fonda has shared raw, personal stories about the emotional strain of her early film work. In the 2022 documentary "Body Parts," directed by Kristy Guevara-Flanagan, Fonda spoke candidly about her experience in the 1968 sci-fi cult classic "Barbarella," in which she played a sensual space traveler. "I was at a place in my life where if you were asked to do something, especially by a man, you did it," Fonda admitted. In recent years, intimacy coordinators have become an essential part of film and television sets, ensuring actors feel safe and respected while filming intimate scenes. Many modern-day stars have praised their presence, and like Fonda, some wish they had this support earlier in their careers. Oscar winner Kate Winslet is among those who have opened up about the emotional weight of navigating these scenes alone. "I would have benefited from an intimacy coordinator every single time I had to do a love scene or be partially naked or even a kissing scene," Winslet told The New York Times. "It would have been nice to have had someone in my corner, because I always had to stand up for myself." Winslet also described moments she now wishes she had handled differently. "'I don't like that camera angle. I don't want to stand here full-frontal nude. I don't want this many people in the room. I want my dressing gown to be closer,'" she said. "Just little things like that." "When you're young, you're so afraid of pissing people off or coming across as rude or pathetic because you might need those things," Winslet added. "So learning to have a voice for oneself in those environments was very, very hard." Although many celebrities see the need for intimacy coordinators, Paltrow, who recently returned to serious acting, doesn't think it is necessary. While reflecting on her intimate scenes with Timothée Chalamet in the movie, "Marty Supreme," Paltrow shared her thoughts on intimacy directors. She told Vanity Fair, "There's now something called an intimacy coordinator, which I did not know existed." Paltrow added, "When 'Marty Supreme's' intimacy coordinator asked me if I'd be comfortable with a particular move during the filming of an intimate scene, I was like, 'Girl, I'm from the era where you get naked, you get in bed, the camera's on.'" She emphasized that she and Chalamet were able to handle the intimate scenes with minimal external supervision. "We said, 'I think we're good. You can step a little bit back,'" she recalled. "I don't know how it is for kids who are starting out, but…if someone is like, 'Okay, and then he's going to put his hand here,' I would feel, as an artist, very stifled by that." After news of Paltrow's comments went viral, film executive Caroline Hollick criticized her for downplaying the importance of intimacy coordinators in film. Hollick, speaking at the "Series Mania" panel titled Let's Talk About Sex! (And Consent), described the comment as "irresponsible." She added per Deadline, "As a powerful woman in Hollywood acting with a man younger than her, well I'm sure [Chalamet] is chill but I thought it was quite an irresponsible thing to say." Hollick stressed that intimacy coordinators play a crucial role on set, saying, "Bringing an intimacy coordinator on set empowers an actor because there is someone on side who is there to fight for them." She highlighted how directors, producers, and writers all have their own agendas, but coordinators support the performer's comfort and safety.

Kate Winslet's daughter says her mom made her write a pros and cons list before signing up for Instagram when she was 14
Kate Winslet's daughter, Mia Threapleton, 24, says she "never had" social media and doesn't want it. The Gen Z actor previously said her mom told her to write a list of pros and cons before joining Instagram. Winslet herself has also been vocal about the harmful impact of social media on children. Mia Threapleton, 24, says her mother, Kate Winslet, influenced her decision not to have social media. In an interview with Elle published on Thursday, the actor spoke about her upbringing and how her famous mother shaped her decision to live a private life. Threapleton told Elle that she doesn't have any social media accounts and doesn't plan on creating them anytime soon. "People say, 'Oh, well done,' to not having it, but I've never had it, so I don't really know what the 'Well done' is for. I don't want it. I don't want to worry about dropping my phone out of a tree if I'm climbing one because I'm trying to take a photo of something," Threapleton said. Part of it comes from the intense public scrutiny her mother faced at the height of her "Titanic" fame. Winslet has spoken multiple times about how she felt bullied and bodyshamed by the media after the movie came out. Threapleton said her mother made a point to instill body confidence from a young age, including times when she was insecure about showing her shoulders while swimming. "My mom said, 'No, this is strong. So many people would love to be able to swim the length of the pool the way you do — think of it as a positive thing,'" Threapleton said, recalling her mother's words. This isn't the first time that Threapleton has spoken about how her mother played a role in her decision not to use social media. In a May 17 interview with The Times, Threapleton said her mother encouraged her to make a list of pros and cons for joining Instagram when she was 14. "The cons completely outweighed the pros for me. That was quite a clarifying moment. Since then, the more time I spend in this world, the more I'm really happy that I don't have it," she said. Winslet herself has also been vocal about the harmful impact of social media on kids. In 2023, during an appearance on BBC Radio 4's "Woman's Hour," the "Little Children" actor spoke about why she believes kids shouldn't have social media and smartphones. "It's tampering with, sometimes, a very basic level of self-esteem. But on a bigger and darker scale, it's tampering with young people's self-esteem to the extent that they are completely losing a sense of who they are, and don't know how to communicate not just with their friends but their families," Winslet said. Several countries around the world are trying to implement stricter controls on social media use for kids. In November, Australia's government approved a law banning social media for children under 16. Norway also announced last year that it was exploring a sweeping social-media ban for children under 15. Representatives for Threapleton and Winslet did not immediately respond to requests for comment sent by Business Insider outside regular hours. Read the original article on Business Insider
