Kate Beckinsale is not just beautiful; it can hardly be believed that the English actress has been in the spotlight for three decades. Her graceful aging has caused lots of plastic surgery rumors. However, Underworld insists she’s never gone under the knife. In an interview with The Sunday Times in July 2021, Kate shared, “My family are generally on the younger-looking side — even my dog is nine and looks like a puppy.”
Beyond plastic surgery, Kate also says she never wheeled out the Botox. “I haven’t had any!” she shuddered. The mother of one who shares daughter Lily Mo Sheen with ex-Michael Sheen added, “I’m not against people having it, [but] I do get pissed off. It’s sort of a given that I’ve had it, which I just literally haven’t. I’m frightened of paralyzing my face.”
Be it plastic surgery or not, the change Kate has undergone over the years is nothing short of incredible!
