Kjersti said in the update, “Yesterday I did receive an email. It was from Anne Hathaway‘s publicist, and he forwarded a message to me from Anne Hathaway. I have to say, I was pretty shocked. I had not expected her to reach out to me at all. I thought she was never gonna even see that video, but she did. And she did something pretty amazing.”
“She sent me a long email explaining to me what she was going through right then when she did this interview, and she apologized for being…giving me an awful interview, basically. It was so touching to me. Just talking about it makes me almost teary eyed, ’cause I was just so grateful that she did that,” she added.
You won’t be hearing what exactly was in that note, though. She shared, “we decided that I wouldn’t share exactly what was in the email, but I just wanted to share with you guys what she did.”
Anne won an Oscar in 2013 for her work in Les Mis, but previously shared that she was not happy at that time.
