Kate Beckinsale has turned to her fans for support, asking them to send prayers for her mother, Judy Loe, as she continues her battle with stage four cancer. The actress, 51, returned to Instagram with an emotional post, sharing a heartfelt tribute to her “extraordinary” mother, whom she described as a “warrior.” Beckinsale first revealed her mother’s illness last year, shortly after the loss of her stepfather, Roy Battersby, who passed away in January 2024 following a “massive stroke.”

The post marked Beckinsale’s return to Instagram after she recently wiped her account clean. She penned in the caption of the post, asking her followers for any prayers they can “spare” for her mother, and included a collection of videos and photos showcasing precious memories with her 77-year-old mother. In several clips, the pair danced together, twirling each other around, while another showed them laughing in inflatable Sumo suits as they played games. Beckinsale didn’t provide further details on her mother’s health but has remained relatively private about her diagnosis, only revealing that her mother has stage four cancer last July while responding to a comment about her appearance.

Beckinsale has been open about how her family’s health struggles have affected her, including the loss of her stepfather and her mother’s cancer diagnosis. She has also spoken about how grief and stress have taken a toll on her physical and mental health. The actress has been using her platform to raise awareness about the importance of supporting loved ones during difficult times and has expressed her gratitude for the love and support she has received from her fans. As she navigates this challenging time, Beckinsale is turning to her fans for support, asking them to send prayers and positive thoughts to her mother.

Beckinsale’s fans have been flooding the comments section with warm words and messages of support, offering prayers and well wishes for her mother’s recovery.

As Beckinsale continues to navigate this difficult time, she can take comfort in knowing that she has a loyal and supportive community behind her, sending prayers and positive thoughts to her mother.

In addition to her mother’s cancer diagnosis, Beckinsale has also been open about her own health struggles, including a recent hospitalization due to a stress-related tear in her oesophagus. The actress has been using her platform to raise awareness about the importance of prioritizing mental and physical health, and has encouraged her fans to do the same. As she continues to support her mother through her cancer battle, Beckinsale is also taking care of herself, knowing that she needs to be strong and healthy to be there for her loved ones.
