Kate continued: 'And for looking after our dogs when we can’t, and lead us to remember happy things when we can’t. 

'And turn up when we are sick and sit with us.. And send balloons and check in and pull us out of wells with love.

'Thank you for loving us, those who do ,and for the amazing, kindest Nick, and especially for my mother’s capacity for joy. It is so inspiring and beautiful.

'Happy everything mama. Your fight for joy despite also welcoming tears is the experience of watching a warrior up close. I love you x'

The Underworld star did not disclose why she had been hospitalised. MailOnline has contacted Kate's representatives for comment.  

In recent months, Kate had been caring for her mother and late stepmother after flying them out from the UK to stay with her in Los Angeles.  

'Kate has been caring for her parents, who both have serious illnesses, for most of the year,' a source exclusively revealed to DailyMail.com late last year. 'She brought them to her home in LA and has made looking after them her number one priority.'

On January 10, Kate announced the death of stepfather Roy aged 87.

The insider revealed that the Snow Angels star — whose biological father Richard Beckinsale died in 1979 at 31 from a heart attack in his sleep — has been feeling the emotional toll in recent months.

'She was spotted this week several times crying in the corridors of UCLA hospital,' the source added. 'Her friends are very concerned that she has been under relentless strain for months and hardly sleeping or eating.

'Kate appears to be very strong but this has been incredibly hard and, given that she lost her father so young, is affecting her very deeply. Her friends are concerned for her own health.'

A second source explained that her mother Judy has chosen to keep her health battle private, stating: 'She's extraordinary, you wouldn't even know by looking at her. She has been keeping a very positive attitude throughout everything.'

Last month, Kate shared a picture of Roy's order of service that revealed he was cremated on Monday February 19 at Mortlake Crematorium near Kew in west London.

She also shared another look at the document which had a sweet message on, along with more snaps of Roy.

It read: 'We wish to thank you, our family and friends, for your loving support and being with us today to honour and commemorate Roy.

'Please join us afterwards to celebrate him and his life, share memories and stories, and inevitably miss him, knowing how much he would enjoy such a get-together'.
