Kate Beckinsale reveals she rushed to the hospital from the Golden Globes, still in her glamorous dress, to comfort her stepfather as he battles two types of cancer and recovers from a stroke

Kate Beckinsale has revealed she ended her glamorous night out at the Golden Globes to support her loved ones in hospital.

The British actress, 50, has been quietly caring for her beloved mother and stepfather as they battle a host of serious health problems, DailyMail.com previously revealed, with insiders claiming that people close to her have expressed concerns about her own well-being amid the 'relentless tension.'

Kate's stepfather Roy Battersby, 87, is currently in hospital as he recovers from a stroke and battles two forms of cancer. Kate made sure she was back by his side after he presented an award at the star-studded ceremony on Sunday.

Kate shared a slew of photos from the red carpet on Instagram on Tuesday, followed by photos of herself in the hospital, captioning the post: “Golden globes 2024 starting to end.”

She was still dressed in her glamorous Atelier Zuhra dress for the hospital visit, which saw Kate eating a burger before putting on her glasses to scroll through her phone.

Hours earlier, Kate attended the 81st Golden Globe Awards held at the Beverly Hilton Hotel to present an award, but made sure to end the evening with family.

Her friends and followers were quick to check in on the star, with one commenting: 'I don't know how you got through last night with everything that's going on. You are strong and a consummate professional.

“It was above and beyond to have to leave your beautiful Roy's side to fulfill this promise at the Globes. Sending love and prayers to you and your family. I'm so glad you were able to go back to the hospital. '

Kate replied: 'thank you and thank you for your supportive texts throughout. That was so kind xx'

One follower misinterpreted the situation and said: “Haha damn what the hell happened,” to which Kate explained: “Nothing funny I'll tell you.”

Kate also fought off a slew of trolls in the comments, with one asking: 'Why do you always wear those 15-inch heels? So strange', which prompted the cheeky comeback: 'why do you still have a soul patch in 2024. Oh! It is your choice . Gotcha'.

Another troll shared: 'Very absolutely amazing, elegant and perfect. When do you really have a personality that matches your appearance?' with Kate replying: 'You haven't met me yet so I'm confused by this. It's also incredibly mean. Was that your intention?'

Last month it was revealed that Kate's stepfather had been admitted to hospital due to a 'major stroke'.

The latest health scare comes amid her mother Judy Loe's private battle. The 76-year-old was diagnosed with a long-term illness six years ago – something Kate has alluded to in several emotional Instagram posts over the past year.

The Underworld actress flew her parents to the US from their home in Britain so she could care for them full-time at her Los Angeles home.

“Kate spends most of the year caring for her parents, who are both battling serious illnesses,” a source exclusively told DailyMail.com. “She brought them to her home in LA and made caring for them her first priority.”

The insider revealed that the Snow Angels star – whose biological father Richard Beckinsale died of a heart attack in his sleep in 1979 at the age of 31 – has felt the emotional toll in recent months.

“She was seen crying in the hallways of UCLA hospital several times this week,” the source added. 'Her friends are very concerned that she has been under constant pressure for months and barely sleeps or eats.

'Kate seems very strong but this has been incredibly difficult and, considering she lost her father so young, it affects her very deeply. Her friends are concerned about her own health.”

A second source explained that her mother Judy has chosen to keep her health struggles private, saying: “She is extraordinary, you wouldn't even know it by looking at her. She has kept a very positive attitude through it all.”

Kate's biological father was the late British actor Richard Beckinsale, best known for his roles as Lennie Godber in the BBC sitcom Porridge, and Alan Moore in the ITV sitcom Rising Damp.

He also had daughter Samantha, 55 – his only child from his marriage to Margaret Bradley.

Roy also comes from the TV world and has had a very successful career as a director. He worked on major British cinema hits including Inspector Morse, Cracker and A Touch of Frost.

Kate has hinted at her parents' ill health online in recent months, sharing images of her mother receiving treatment in hospital.

In August, she encouraged fans to do what makes them happy with the Instagram caption: “Embrace joy. Accept sadness. Wear feathers. To sing. Do what makes you feel equally happy. Combine sadness, illness and fear with as much life, laughter and celebration as you can.

“It doesn't mean you have some kind of crisis. It means that you fiercely choose life. Be brave, and if you don't feel brave, listen. Laugh hard, dance hard, cry hard, love hard with those you trust.”

She continued, “Spread love when you can. Read. Stay in bed and cry as it comes from all sides and feels like an avalanche. Don't try to be mean or copy the meanness of others. People can break.

'Be nice. Fight with everything you have for your loved ones, and for your own spirit x.”

However, the Much Ado About Nothing actress is determined to put on a brave face and do everything she can to continue supporting her loved ones during this difficult time.

“Kate has tried to maintain a positive public and professional presence and remain optimistic for her family,” the source added.

Kate's mother, who is also an actress, married Roy in 1997, 18 years after Kate's father died.
