In 1975, Goldie Hawn met musician Bill Hudson of *The Hudson Brothers* during a first-class flight. Their instant connection led to marriage in 1976, just before the birth of their son. The newborn faced life-threatening complications but survived, becoming their “precious miracle.” They later welcomed a daughter in 1979.
However, their marriage ended in 1981 after Bill discovered Goldieโs infidelity. Bill wanted a traditional marriage, while Goldie preferred an open relationship.
In 1983, Goldie began dating actor Kurt Russell. Their blended family faced challenges, but Kurt stepped in as a father figure. Goldieโs children, Kate and Oliver Hudson, later praised Kurt for his support, while expressing feelings of abandonment by Bill.
Tensions escalated publicly in 2015 when Oliver posted a Fatherโs Day message calling out Billโs absence. Bill responded, claiming betrayal and asking his children to stop using the Hudson name.
Despite the family rift, Kate and Oliver continue to share a close bond with Kurt, who plays an active role in their lives and their childrenโs.
