Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell’s Relationship
Goldie and Kurt first crossed paths while filming the 1968 movie musical “The One and Only, Genuine, Original Family Band.” Their paths diverged for several years, but fate brought them together again in 1984 when they both worked on the film “Swing Shift.”

Before meeting Kurt, Goldie had experienced her share of relationship challenges. Her first marriage was to dancer and director Gus Trikonis from 1969 to 1973.

The 1970s were particularly stressful for Goldie. She went through a tumultuous divorce and filmed three demanding projects in one year. After her separation from Gus, they did not divorce immediately. She only filed so that she could get married to her second husband.

Gus demanded $75,000 from Goldie, citing California’s community property law, which caused further tension. Goldie felt hurt, especially since he had never financially supported her.

In 1976, Goldie married musician and actor Bill Hudson. The same year, she gave birth to their son, Oliver Hudson. In 1979, they welcomed their daughter, Kate Hudson. However, their marriage also faced difficulties and ended in divorce in 1982.

Oliver and Kate have been open about their strained relationship with their father. They admitted to feeling abandoned by Bill during their childhood. Recently, Kate mentioned she never had a relationship with him but added that it’s improving now.
In 2015, Oliver expressed his feelings of abandonment in a harsh Father’s Day message on Instagram. Alongside a throwback photo of the siblings and their father was a caption that read, “Happy Abandonment Day.”
This strained relationship affected the family deeply. Bill once said he didn’t want to see his eldest children again, but he reconnected with Oliver three years later.
Setting aside her bitterness from the failed relationships, Goldie focused on her career and raising her children. Luckily, she found love again and created a family with Kurt.

She was attracted to his kind and caring nature, convinced he was the one. Over the years, they raised their son, Wyatt Russell, born in 1986, along with Oliver and Kate and Kurt’s son, Boston. Her kids admire Kurt as a solid father figure and call him Pa.

She believes in nurturing their bond and dealing with feelings openly. She emphasizes that a flexible and understanding approach has been crucial to their relationship’s success.

This mutual respect and understanding have been fundamental to their four-decade partnership. Throughout their relationship, Goldie and Kurt never felt the need to marry.
Why Did Goldie and Kurt Choose Not to Marry?
Although the lovebirds have created a tight-knit family, they have chosen to maintain an unconventional relationship. Kurt believes that a marriage certificate wouldn’t add anything to their relationship that they don’t already have.
Goldie adds that their four children have all tried marriage with varying degrees of success. She asserts that their choice not to marry has worked well for them and hasn’t affected their children’s choices. They believe a relationship is about the people involved and their commitment to each other.
They do not care about the formalities but the will to stay together, cherishing the joy and excitement of being in love. When asked why they never married, Goldie responded, “Why should we get married? Isn’t that a better question?”
She elaborated that their previous experiences with marriage and divorce influenced their decision. They prefer to avoid the complications and potential ugliness of a legal split. Goldie values the freedom to choose every day to stay in the relationship.

In 1989, the two humorously toyed with the idea of marriage at the Oscars stage. Before presenting the Best Director award to Barry Levinson for “Rain Man,” they devised a light-hearted skit about tying the knot.
They rehearsed their banter just hours before the ceremony, as they didn’t like the speech prepared for them. They wanted something that would feel real to the audience. They did get it right as many people believed their exchange was real.
Kurt later stated, “At that time, we constantly got asked, ‘When are you going to get married? Why aren’t you married?’ And we were like, ‘Why does anybody care about that?’ We’d asked our kids if they cared about it. They didn’t. We didn’t.”
On March 17, 2021, Goldie posted a clip of their famous Oscars banter on Instagram with the caption, “Happy birthday baby! What a wild ride. No, we never got married but one thing that continues to grow is our love.”
“You’re a wild one, brilliant, lovable, childlike, perfectly maddening, a father supreme and deeply funny! I can’t imagine my life without you at any age, Kurt Russell,” she continued. “You’re the catch. And you’re all mine❤️.”
