Kate Winslet bruised after hitting head playing basketball

Kate Winslet bruised her head badly while playing basketball with her kids Sunday night.

Her injury has caused producers to halt shooting of Winslet’s new HBO miniseries called ‘Mildred Pierce’, so that the star can recover.

“She fell after being hit by a basketball and suffered bruising that couldn”t be covered with make-up, so the entire production was halted Monday,” The New York Post quoted a source as saying.

A representative for Winslet – who has two kids, Mia, 9 and Joe, 6 – confirmed that she was fine.
