Kate Beckinsale shares emotional post mourning late stepfather Roy Battersby after receiving his birthday card from dentist three months after his death
Kate Beckinsale opened up about her grief following the loss of her stepfather in a heartfelt Instagram post on Saturday.
The tribute post comes after her stepfather Roy was hospitalised in Los Angeles in December after suffering 'a massive stroke' while battling two forms of cancer, which he was diagnosed with in the summer of 2023. The clip opened with a moving recording of Roy recalling how he was forced to hide in a shelter during the Blitz early in World War II as Nazi bombs rained down. He called the eventual announcement of Victory in Europe Day a 'wonderful thing,' because it meant no more hiding in shelters, and young men no longer had to leave their families to go off to fight across the continent.
