It's a Girl for Kate Winslet
October 15 -- LONDON (Reuters) — British actress Kate Winslet has given birth to a baby girl, Britain's Daily Mail newspaper reported on Saturday.
The 25-year-old, who starred alongside American heart-throb Leonardo DiCaprio in the hit movie Titanic, gave birth to a daughter on Thursday, the paper said.
Both mother and daughter are doing well, the paper added.
In August the actress and husband Jim Threapleton, 26, moved into a $1.17 million riverside home in southern England.
Winslet now plans to take a break from her acting career to bring up her daughter, the Daily Mail reported.
In March Winslet said she had no fears about motherhood disrupting her movie career. "I've never been one for changing what is real in order to make my career buzz," she said.
"My career comes second. There are some actors who do back-to-back jobs and are anxious when others are in the limelight. That's not me," she added.
Winslet met her film director husband on the set of the movie Hideous Kinky in 1997. The couple were married in November 1998.
