Kate Winslet's unusual Oscar getaway

Kate Winslet used this year's Academy Awards to treat her family to an unusual leave.

As FemaleFirst notes the Oscar-nominated actress for her role in “Little Children”, invited husband Sam Mendes, and her two young kids, Mia and Joe, to join her at the annual awards.

"It's half-term (vacation) for my kids, so it made sense to turn the Oscars into a family holiday. We've been swimming and done lots of visits to places the kids loved”, said the “Titanic” star.

"Sam has babysat while I've tried on my frock and sorted out what I'm going to wear on the night", added actress.
