Beckinsale said yesterday that she thought the disorder was caused by an unhealthy home life and compared "anorexia, alcoholism and drug abuse in teens" to "crack whores".Kate was mostly discussing her rough childhood and life experiences which led to her becoming unhealthy at one point. Kate was raised by her mother after her father died when she was only 5.
A parent, Ros Ponomarenko-Jones, whose 19-year-old daughter Sophie died last year from anorexia, was quoted as saying that Beckinsale, "has been totally flippant and does not really know what she is talking about. She is not giving anorexia the status it deserves as a mental illness.
"I think she needs to go to an eating disorder unit and speak to some of the girls there, where she would find out it is not always about what is happening in the home.
"They look up to celebrities and if they are thin, the girls take that on board and think if they look skinnier, they will have friends and live better lives. She has been completely irresponsible."
