No Kate was quite young when she made Titanic and Sense and Sensibility too. Her and Leo are of a similar age, that's why they have stayed so close. He is the same age as me, a year older than Kate. I re-watched Titanic recently and you can tell she's very young. I also watched Sense and Sensibility recently and listened to the commentary by Emma Thompson and she was remarking that Kate was 19 during filming I think.

I am 37, at one point Kaplinsky was alledgedly a lot younger than me, last time I saw a ref she was several years older. Which is more like it

Sinnita is a serial offender

Rachel Weisz is a few months younger than my husband as they went to college together (she looks very un-glam in their matriculation photo). He is 41 this summer. I think she recently turned 40.

HerBeatitude · 05/05/2010 20:59

I think Kylie's got younger recently

hifi · 06/05/2010 10:33

sinnita must be late 40's

franke · 06/05/2010 10:36

Ooh yes, Kylie. She used to be several years older than me when she was in Neighbours. Now she's the same age. And that Denise van Outen, I'm sure she was older than me once.

Keira Knightly has been accused of dropping a few years by her classmates.

SecretPollingBooth · 06/05/2010 11:12

I thought this yesterday, Kylie I think sparked it off but there are loads of them. They are all famour "grown ups" when I was in secondary school and now I'm catching them up.

Naomi Campbell was once the same age as me, so I know she is 40 now. Except that she is 39 now.

Although in fairness, it could have just been that the journo hadn't properly checked her age when I read about her this morning (oprah stunt).

Is Penny Smith from GMTV out of the closet now? What is she owning up to nowadays?

I know (from a friend of hers) she was 40 in about 1997 .

Magaly · 09/05/2010 20:29

I always liked Penny. She is funny. I used to like the way she laughed at her own jokes while trying to tell the news.

She went out with Rory Bremner for a while. Had no idea she was gay.

DramaInPyjamas · 09/05/2010 20:43

Is Penny Smith gay? I had no idea!

Caprice has been caught out lying about her age quite a few times.

And I'm a bit suss about Sarah Harding out of Girls Aloud being the same age as me (28).. Am sure she was older than myself by quite a few years at some point.

bibbitybobbityhat · 09/05/2010 21:22

Oh no no no no no no no! sorry!!!!

I meant "out of the closet" loosely, with regard to her age.

She is a notorious age-shaver-offer

Magaly · 09/05/2010 22:21

oh right! gotcha. i'm thick.

headlessandclueless · 09/05/2010 22:43

kate winslet looks amazingly beautiful, but i think she looks older than i do. when titanic came out, she was defintily younger than me, but i think she now looks older than me. the wrinkles around the eyes.

NonnoMum · 09/05/2010 23:15

'Tis cos she's a smoker.

And V young when in Sense and S (about 17?) About 18 for Titanic?
