SHE’S moved from her native Reading to New York, but actress Kate Winslet has still got her fee on the ground.

When it was suggested the 33 year old star postpone a family holiday to the Caribbean so she could promote her new movie Revolutionary Road, she declined.

The week-long trip with husband Sam Mendes and her two children threatened to clash with this month’s U.S. release of the film, directed by Mendes and reuniting her with Titanic co-star Leonardo DiCaprio.

‘Staff at distributor Paramount Vantage put out feelers that Kate and Sam might put their holiday on hold,’ I’m told.  ‘They insisted on taking the break.  But since she’s come back, Kate has promoted the film like a Trojan.’

Kate Winslet has said her daughter Mia was stunned to see a picture of her Uncle Leo on the front of a newspaper.

Kate tries to hide her fame from eight year old Mia and five year old son Joe – and by extension, the fame of her husband Sam Mendes and their family friends like Leonardo DiCaprio.

But Kate explained recently that sometimes the children get a peak behind the curtain at the reality where they’re A-listers: “There was a picture of Leo on the front of a newspaper.

“Mia picked it up and went, ‘Mum, it’s Leo, he’s on the cover of the newspaper! We should really keep this and send it to him, Mummy!’”

Kate and Leonardo first worked together on 1997′s Titanic and their new film Revolutionary Road, directed by Mendes, is released in the US this Christmas.
