Kate Winslet has spoken of her devastation after learning of the death of a \u2018wonderful\u2019 mother for whose cancer treatment she helped to pay.<\/p>\n

The Hollywood actress raised money for experimental immunotherapy for 29-year-old Gemma Nuttall, from Lancashire, who died on Sunday following a five-year battle.<\/p>\n

Ms Nuttall was diagnosed with ovarian cancer when pregnant with her daughter, Penelope, but delayed chemotherapy to save the life of her unborn baby.<\/p>\n

She was successfully treated after the birth but the cancer returned and Winslet, along with Titanic co-star Leonardo DiCaprio, helped her raise \u00a3300,000 to have therapy in Germany.<\/p>\n

Winslet said her death was \u2018tragically sad\u2019 and described Ms Nuttall as \u2018a beacon of strength\u2019, adding \u2018my heart breaks for her mum and daughter\u2019.<\/p>\n

Ms Nuttall\u2019s mother, Helen Sproates, announced the death of her daughter in a Facebook post at 9.43am last Sunday, October 14.<\/p>\n

Winslet told MailOnline: \u2018My heart is solely with Helen, Penelope and all of the family at this tragically sad time.\u00a0Gemma was such a beacon of strength and fought this battle so incredibly hard, with grace and dignity throughout. It was a privilege for me to be let into her life for a brief time and to try and help.\u2019<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
