The 48-year-old star even admitted her co-star has probably ‘got PTSD’ from being asked about the door so often.
‘Well that was quite an awkward tank,’ she shared while at a Q&A for . ‘Because to burst the bubble, it was waist height at that time.’
As the New York screener audience sat in shock over the bombshell, Kate continued: ‘So first of all, I was regularly like, “Can I just go for a pee?” And then I get up, get off the door, walk to the edge of the tank, sort of 20 feet away and I literally have to fling my leg over and climb up and come and get back on the door again.’
‘It’s terrible,’ the Holiday icon added as she spoke about the toilet complications to Josh Horowitz at the event on Monday, September 23.
‘Anyway, yeah,’ Kate continued. ‘So it was waist-high. Leo I’m afraid to say was kneeling down.
‘I shouldn’t be saying anyways, Jimmy Cameron’s gonna be ringing me.’

Winslet added: ‘So making the story about a woman as women was an enormous privilege and, of course, the energy that we’re able to put into it, our femininity which I think, Lee Miller kind of redefined what femininity is and this is 80 years ago.
‘For her it was resilience, courage and compassion and power, and things that matter to us now in this ever-changing culture and I just have so much admiration for what she did, what she witnessed, the courage that she had and this particular decade of her life that we cover in the film I think these were her defining years when she really came into her truest self and never looked back.’
