Kate Beckinsale shared a cryptic message from hospital that she was hospitalised in a UK Mother’s Day tribute to her mum, Judy Loe.

The Serendipity star posted a slide show on Instagram Monday that included photos of herself in a hospital bed, though she notably did not offer an explanation as to why she needed treatment, Page Six reported.

“Happy birthday and UK Mother’s Day this last week to my incredible mother,” she captioned the post.

“Thank you to those that love us and support us when it’s sh*t and try to make sure there are some bits that aren’t.”

She 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...”

Beckinsale, 50, thanked Loe, 77, for being so “loving” as she celebrated her mum'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,” she concluded her post.

The photos showed Beckinsale wearing a blue hospital gown and a giant bow on her head as she snapped a selfie with tears in her eyes.

The slide show also featured photos of Loe with a birthday cake as well as some content of her enjoying a glass of Champagne.

Fans of the British actor were confused by Beckinsale’s cryptic post and flooded the comments section with questions.

“Are you OK? Why are you in a hospital? Please get Well soon,” one person wrote.

“No context hospital pics don’t sit well with me,” a second commented.

“Such a sweet post for your Mama. I pray for your recovery, whatever it is you may be going through Kate,” a third fan added.

“Love to your amazing Mumma … and to you, darling … healing thoughts and vibes your way Xxx,” one more wrote.

Beckinsale has been grieving the loss of her stepfather, Roy Battersby, who died of a “massive stroke” in January while battling two forms of cancer. He was 87.

The late British TV director, known for his projects like Between the Lines and Red Mercury, married Beckinsale’s mother in 1997.

Loe’s first husband and Beckinsale’s father, Richard Beckinsale, died from a heart attack in 1979.
