Winslet And Jim Tried To Change Each Other


KATE WINSLET and husband JIM THREAPLETON fell into the trap of trying to change each other - and saw their marriage fail. The sparky British actress believes the pair's problems began when they failed to accept each other for who they were.

She says, "Marriage is about the meeting of two minds and two souls and hoping that it is going to work together. "But sometimes it doesn't happen, and that's a shame. " Winslet met assistant film director Jim in Morocco on the set of her movie HIDEOUS KINKY (1998).

He is now believed to be asking for more than $1,000,000 (£800,000) in a divorce settlement after their marriage faltered. She says, "
Life with someone is very much about not wanting to change anything about that person and not allowing them to change anything in you. I firmly believe that. " (BRC/WNTMI/KMW)
