Goldie Hawn Opens Up About Her Love Story With Kurt Russell: It's All About The Kids

Goldie Hawn Recalls 'the Way' Kurt Russell 'Looked' at Her Kids

Let’s talk about love, Hollywood style. When Goldie Hawn first started dating Kurt Russell, she had a feeling that this was going to be the real deal. What really sealed the deal for her? It wasn’t just his good looks or charm—it was the way he connected with her kids, Oliver Hudson and Kate Hudson. Goldie, now 75, couldn’t help but gush about it during a heartfelt appearance on the Ellen DeGeneres Show back in November. "Kurt isn't just a great actor; he's got this incredible way of making you feel special," Goldie said. "But what really stood out was how he interacted with my children. That was something truly special."

The Moment Goldie Knew Kurt Was The One

Goldie Hawn, the star of movies like First Wives Club and Snatched, admitted that there was more to Kurt Russell than just his good looks. Sure, he was handsome and fun, but it was his fatherly instincts that really made her swoon. "When I saw how Kurt treated my kids, I thought, 'Wow, this guy is something else,'" Goldie recalled with a smile. Sitting next to Kurt, who was 69 at the time, she added, "He's not just good with kids; he genuinely loves them. And that's something I'll never forget."

From Co-Stars to Soulmates: The Early Days

Goldie and Kurt first crossed paths on the set of Swing Shift back in 1983. There was definitely chemistry between them, but life had other plans at the time. "I had a boyfriend then, and Kurt was seeing someone too," Goldie joked, reminiscing about their initial meeting. Despite the obstacles, their connection was undeniable. Eventually, both decided to end things with their respective partners to pursue what they felt was meant to be. "It was tough, but I knew I had to do it," Goldie admitted. "I called my boyfriend and told him everything. I was nervous, but I knew Kurt was the one."

Meanwhile, Kurt was married to Season Hubley from 1979 to 1983, and they welcomed their son, Boston Russell.
