Kate Winslet Divorce: The Actress Talks of Past Divorces and New Marriage in Harpers Bazaar UK

Kate Winslet revealed a lot about her past relationships in the April issue of Harpers Bazaar UK including her past two divorces and new marriage. I've really learned a great deal about myself, in the last four years in particular," she said in the issue. "I think I can see more clearly now - about how the pattern of past experiences has shaped who I am, and the characters I have played - and I'm grateful for that."

Winslet,37, wed Ned Rocknroll,34, in December a few months ago and they met on holiday on Necker Island which is Richard Branson's private Caribbean island. Ned is a Virgin Galactic executive.

Winslet was married to director Sam Mendes who she had son Joe, 8. She was also married to Jim Threapleton whom she had her daughter Mia,12, with.

"I have so much more material to draw on for work - rubble, bricks - and I know I can carry it now," she said in the issue.

Mendes and Winslet revealed they were splitting up in March 2010. "I think I can see more clearly now-about how the pattern of past experiences has shaped who I am, and the characters I have played-and I'm grateful for that," she said.

The Sun reported that Kate's nuptials to Ned included exchanging platinum and diamond-encrusted wedding bands. "They had them specially made to order when they were in Hong Kong," a source said to the tabloid. "Ned says a baby is definitely the plan for them next -- and they've had a lot of fun practicing."

Winslet's famous friend Leonardo DiCaprio walked her down the isle and Ned's best man was his brother Jack.

The Daily Mail reported that the wedding happened in the Catskill mountains of New York in a heated barn.

"In fact, the couple didn't even tell their parents about their hush-hush wedding. "What are you going on about?" Winslet's father, Roger, said when asked about the ceremony. Rocknroll's father, Robert, added, "It's not something I know of -- but nothing would surprise me with those two'," reported US Weekly.

An insider said to The Daily Mail, "Marriage has always been on the cards and they've been talking about doing it for the past couple of months. It wasn't a spur-of-the-moment thing, but they wanted to keep it secret."
