Kate Beckinsale took matters into her own hands after growing sick and tired of nasty trolls criticizing her every move on social media.
On Monday, July 8, the 50-year-old uploaded a message for her haters via Instagram in response to excessive negative comments about her noticeable weight-loss in recent months.

Kate Beckinsale clapped back at hate comments regarding her weight.
The English actress shared a video of herself wearing a skimpy outfit while posing in the mirror, as she stated: "Some, not all, of my followers, can get them really upset that they don't feel I'm doing enough age-appropriate things, so I thought I'd let them kick off their week with a little stab of joy of me putting on a hair net."
"For those of you who are going to get off on this," Beckinsale — who wore a cropped, off-the-shoulder hot pink top with two hamster faces displayed on her chest and matching bikini bottoms — continued.

The actress admittedly lost a lot of weight following the death of her stepfather.
The Underworld star topped off her look with a large bow in her hair and knee-high, extreme platform black boots.
"Let's have a toast for the douchebags. Let's have a toast for the a-------. Let's have a toast for the scumbags," Beckinsale captioned the upload.

However, the Van Helsing star lost it when someone commented, "go do some squats. I think your a-- ran away."
"No, actually, I watched my stepfather die quite shockingly, my mother has stage 4 cancer and I lost a lot of weight from stress and grief," she expressed of her stepdad, Roy Battersby, who devastatingly died back in January after suffering a "massive stroke" and her mom, Judy Loe.

Beckinsale further explained: "Quite quickly and then I was in hospital for six weeks because the grief had burned a hole in my oesophagus, which made me vomit copious amounts of blood, and I found eating very hard."
"And I just worked very very hard on a movie that was actually quite triggering because it also involved the theme of the death of my father so I'm not really concerned about what you think about my a--," she admitted.
Continuing to clap back at the hater, Beckinsale concluded: "Maybe you should worry about your own f------ a--. I suggest shoving something up it, like a large pineapple or a brick."
