Richard Branson’s nephew Ned Rocknroll has revealed that he is “totally smitten” by Kate Winslet.

The 33-year-old also admitted that he can’t get enough of the 35-year-old Titanic star’s curvy figure.

“When he met Kate he realized she was a real grown up and was attracted to her maturity,” the Sun quoted a source as saying.

“He also liked the fact she was a little bit older. He finds her incredibly sexy,” the source stated.

Winslet cozied up to Rocknroll while staying at the Virgin tycoon Branson’s Caribbean holiday island of Necker and the two were recently pictured sharing a joke together in Central London.

Sources have revealed that twice-wed Winslet’s pals have “never seen her so happy”.

Making the trip across the pond to Mother England, Kate Winslet was spotted arriving at London’s Heathrow Airport yesterday, September 20.

The Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind actress looked to be in good spirits as she made her exit sporting sunglasses, a black jacket, and a grey scarf.

Winslet was in the States to pick up her Emmy Award for Best Actress in a Miniseries or Movie for her role in Mildred Pierce.

During the Emmys, Kate’s costar Guy Pearce won Best Supporting Actor and told the audience, “This was really a delightful experience making Mildred Pierce I got to have sex with Kate Winslet many, many times. And I didn’t realize it was going to result in this, so Kate I share this with you because you’re an extraordinary woman, thank you, for allowing me to insert myself into your world of Mildred.”

After the speech, Kate gushed, “I was thrilled! I’ve had a crush on Guy Pearce since I was 11 years old, so just to stand in the same room as him was thrilling for me and to hear him say that was even more of a buzz.”

Kate Winslet dedicates first Emmy to mum

Kate Winslet dedicated her first Emmy to her mum as she scooped the outstanding actress in a mini-series award last night.

The Oscar-winning actress won the award for her lead role in Mildred Pierce, beating Elizabeth McGovern, who plays the Countess of Grantham in ITV1’s Downton Abbey, which took four gongs.

The HBO drama tells the story of a divorced single mother who decides to open a restaurant business during 1930s Depression-era California.

Wearing a stunning red dress, the Titanic star thanked her mum Sally as she collected the award.

She said: “Mildred Pierce was capable of great acts of love as a mother but she was an extraordinary and a multi-tasker, and to that end I do have to share this with my mum.

“It doesn’t matter how old you are or what you do in your life, you never stop needing your mum, and I will never stop needing mine.”
