“That has broken my heart all over again,” Beckinsale wrote of the note from BAFTA, which she indicated came in an email. “I am paralysed, sick and sickened and I will honour him and his work every day of my life,” she continued, noting that her mother Loe, 76, “has been gracefully and quietly dealing with stage four cancer for the last six years and just lost her husband.”
“So thanks again, BAFTA for your horribly cold email,” she added.
