Last September Kate Winslet was dating male model Louis Dowler on and off. While casually dating Louis, Kate met and hooked up with Ned RocknRoll, with whom she’s still dating. Ned was married (although estranged) at the time. When Kate and Ned hooked up, the two promptly dumped their partners for good.
Now Louis is speaking out about how brutal Kate was during their breakup, and how he felt like she gone and done him wrong!
Nearly three months after he was unceremoniously dumped by Kate Winslet when she took up with Richard Branson’s party-loving nephew, her former love is still coming to terms with the break-up — and the way he was so brutally discarded.
Speaking publicly for the first time since he was abandoned by the Oscar-winning actress, male model Louis Dowler, 35, says: ‘I don’t think Kate behaved well and it is still very raw for me.’
Famous for her own emotional performances at award ceremonies, Kate, 35, left Dowler close to tears after they went on what should have been a romantic trip to Branson’s Caribbean hideaway on Necker Island this summer. Instead, it was a disaster. While Kate was hailed a hero for rescuing Sir Richard’s mother, Eve, from the fire which engulfed the luxurious retreat, Louis was devastated when the trip ended with the actress flying to New York with Ned Abel Smith.
‘I was in love with her and you can’t switch that off overnight,’ Dowler tells me. ‘I’m not sure Kate treated me well.’
For his part Abel Smith, who eccentrically changed his name by deed poll some years ago to Ned RocknRoll, subsequently informed his wife, Eliza Pearson, 23, the sweet-natured daughter of multi-millionaire Viscount Cowdray, that he had fallen for the Titantic star.
While Eliza took it on the chin, Louis is still struggling with what happened.
‘Kate came home with me to Cornwall and we just hung out together. She met my parents and family,’ he says. ‘I thought we were inseparable. I certainly haven’t found anyone else since.’
The Burberry model says that at first he was blissfully happy with Kate when they met after her split from film director husband Sam Mendes, spending time at her £2.5 million New York apartment.
Louis, who was at a party for the Omega boutique at the new Westfield shopping centre in East London, adds: ‘I don’t want to go into details but it wasn’t a straightforward break-up. I’m a laid-back guy, so I am not walking around with a long face — but I do still hold a torch for her.’
I feel bad for the guy. Kate does seem like a bit of a man-eater when it comes to her men. Here are pictures of Kate and Louis shortly before they broke up in September.
