Kate Winslet Rescued Mom

Kate Winslet Rescues Richard Branson’s Mom From House Fire: Kate Winslet Rescues Richard Branson’s 90-Year-Old Mom:  Kate Winslet and her children were among the guests who escaped a fire at billionaire Richard Branson’s home on his private Caribbean island. The Virgin Group boss said about 20 people, including Winslet and her children, were staying in the eight-bedroom Great House on Necker, his private isle in the British Virgin Islands.

The eccentric billionaire said the fire broke out before dawn when lightning from a tropical storm hit the home. According to the Sky News, Sir Richard Branson was staying at another property around 100 yards away with his wife, Joan, and 25-year-old son Sam when the blaze took hold after a tropical storm.

Flames quickly ravaged the wood and stone mansion forcing those inside. Richard Branson cited a tropical storm as the cause, saying a lightning storm hit the house around 4:00 AM. Sir Richard Branson said, “We had a really bad tropical storm with winds up to 90mph. A big lightning storm came around 4:00 am and hit the house.
