Award-winning actress Naomi Watts has announced the global release of her book titled ‘Dare I Say It.’ The star took to Instagram to share the exciting news with her followers, revealing that the book is now available in multiple countries around the world.
In her Instagram post, Watts shared an image of her book cover, which features a striking portrait of the actress herself. The post was captioned, “We are worldwide!! Get your copy at the link in my bio. 🇺🇸 🇪🇸 🇫🇷 🇮🇹 🇵🇹,” followed by the hashtag “#DareISayIt.” The flags indicate that the book is available in the United States, Spain, France, Italy, and Portugal, suggesting a comprehensive international release.
‘Dare I Say It’ covers the actress’ personal journey and thoughts on menopause and aging. She was in the middle of filming for a movie, when her doctor informed her that she was on the brink of menopause. The news shocked her, and later, inspired her to write this book that covers detailed information on menopause and ways to manage it.
This literary venture marks a new chapter for Watts, who has primarily been known for her work in film and television. The British-Australian actress has built an impressive career spanning over three decades, with notable performances in films such as “Mulholland Drive,” “The Ring,” and “The Impossible,” the latter earning her Academy Award and Golden Globe nominations.
Though renowned for her acting prowess, Watts has been expanding her professional portfolio in recent years. She is the founder of Stripes Beauty, a company focused on supporting women through menopause – a cause she has become increasingly vocal about.
In a recent Instagram post, she expressed gratitude for appearing alongside Oprah Winfrey in a television special dedicated to menopause education. She wrote, “Beyond grateful to have had the opportunity to gather with these remarkable women and @Oprah on primetime TV! Never would have dreamed of such a thing.”
In that post, Watts candidly shared, “Over the course of my career as an actor, I’ve outrun tsunamis and come face-to-face with ‘King Kong.’ But nothing prepared me for early menopause.” This experience led her to found Stripes Beauty, which aims to “help provide women with education, community, and solutions through this time of our lives.”
The special, titled “An Oprah Winfrey Special: The Menopause Revolution,” aired on ABC and is available for streaming on Disney+ and Hulu. In promoting the program, Watts emphasized the importance of bringing menopause discussions into the mainstream, writing, “Thank you @Oprah for taking this conversation mainstream! This is a huge step forward. I needed a community of women like this 20 years ago.”
With the global release of ‘Dare I Say It’, Watts adds published author to her already impressive resume of actress, entrepreneur, activist, and mother. Fans worldwide can now access her book through the link in her Instagram bio, with versions available in multiple languages across various countries.
