Kate Hudson reflects on what its like having three children with three different fathers – Daily Mail

She’s a popular actress known for her free-spiritedness and sunny disposition.

And Kate Hudson opened up on Sunday about her experience as a mother, specifically with regard to the fact that her three children each have a different father.

The Almost Famous star, 41, sat down for a virtual chat on Sunday Today with Willie Geist, in which she remarked, ‘I’ve got multiple dads, I’ve got kids all over the place!’

‘The only expectations I really have that are really high in my life is with my kids, and with family stuff,’ she continued.    

‘Other than that, it’s like, I just let it go… I work my a** off, and then I walk away, and I hope for the best.’ 

Kate shares her eldest son Ryder, 17, with her ex-husband Chris Robinson, younger son Bingham, nine, with her ex-fiance Matt Bellamy, and daughter Rani Rose, two, with her partner Danny Fujikawa. 

In the interview, the Skeleton Key star also reflected on what it was like growing up estranged from her own father, actor and musician Bill Hudson, which she referred to as a ’41-year-old issue.’ 

‘I think that estrangement is unfortunately quite common, and I think it’s important for people to talk about that,’ Kate shared. 

‘Sometimes [people] need a little bit of talk and humor to move us into places where we can heal some of the wounds that have effected us from our families.’

Kate is daughter to Oscar-winning actress Goldie Hawn, and along with her brother Oliver she was raised with the help of Goldie’s longtime partner Kurt Russell. 

‘I have a beautiful mother,’ the Fool’s Gold actress shared. ‘I have a stepfather who stepped in and played a huge, huge part in sharing what it is to have a dependable father figure in our life, but it doesn’t take away from the fact that we didn’t know our dad.’

Kate also opened up about what it’s like during this strange period of lockdown at home with her kids, who vary in age from toddler to teen.

‘I wanna be, like, “Yeah, it’s so great and we’re figuring out…” but the reality is that there are days that are great, and there’s days that I have to remind myself to be grateful,’ Hudson said.

‘I never thought in a million years that I’d spend a year in one place,’ she also shared, referring to herself as a ‘gypsy’ who loved to travel as a working actor. 

‘When you have so many kids, sometimes you have those moments where you’re hiding in your bathroom going, “Please, please, get me out of here!”

‘I just remind myself there’s a lot of people out there who have lost their loved ones, and we just gotta stay in for a bit,’ she added.
