Kate Hudson Claims That Her Three Children “Just Go Berserk” Over a “Very Wild” Christmas Ritual

Kate Hudson discusses some of her favorite holiday traditions with her three children.

The 43-year-old actress is the mother of three children: son Ryder, 18, with ex-husband Chris Robinson; son Bingham, 11, with ex-fiancé Matt Bellamy; and daughter Rani Rose, 4, with fiancé Danny Fujikawa.

“‘The Night Before Christmas,’ we read every night. And Santa is aware. “Santa usually appears when the kids are about to go to bed, and it’s pretty wild because the kids can’t believe it.

“And the youngsters go completely insane. As a result, they immediately fall asleep. And Santa generally leaves hints about what he enjoys drinking and eating at night.

“And other years, it’s cookies and milk,” the star of “Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery” explained. “Some years, it tastes like rum, coke, and licorice. He looks more like a dirty martini some years because he needs the break.”

Last month, the “Fool’s Gold” actress discussed how she co-parents her three children with three separate fathers.

“It may not appear traditional from the outside, but on the inside, I feel like we’re killing it,” the Oscar contender told The Sunday Times.

“I’ve built a pretty strong unit with three children from three separate men, and it’s ours.

“I’m not interested in imposing any preconceived notion of love or marriage. I’d like to grow intimately with my spouse for a long time, but I’m not wearing rose-colored glasses.

“My objective in life is to experience love and give love, but I’m also practical, so one day at a time,” Hudson explained. “I put forth a lot of effort in my relationships because I enjoy them. My parents have done an outstanding job of carrying on that tradition.”

Hudson was referring to her mother, Goldie Hawn, and her 39-year spouse, Kurt Russell. Despite the fact that Hudson is the biological daughter of Hawn and musician Bill Hudson, 73, the actress has stated that Russell is her father.

Kate met Robinson in May 2000, and the couple moved in together a few days later. Hudson gave birth to Ryder in 2004 after the pair married on New Year’s Eve of that year. The couple separated in November 2006 and divorced in October 2007.

Hudson stated that her eldest is “at college and extremely happy,” adding that “Chris and I just need to check in every now and then.”

After meeting at the Coachella Music Festival in Indio, California, in 2010, the Fabletics founder and Bellamy, 44, began dating. They announced their engagement in April 2011 and welcomed Bingham “Bing” in July of the same year.

In December 2014, the actress and Muse frontman revealed their engagement was over. They have stayed on good terms following their breakup, with Hudson telling the New York Times that she “couldn’t wish for a finer co-parent.”

In December 2016, the “Almost Famous” actor began dating Fujikawa, 36, a longtime family friend. Hudson met the musician when she was 23 and expecting Ryder.

Hudson revealed in April 2018 that they were expecting their first child together, and Rani was born late that year. They announced their engagement in September 2021.

Hudson told the New York Times that the couple is not in any hurry to be married.

“I hope we get married,” she replied, smiling. “We’re not rushing. I don’t need to plan a wedding on top of everything else right now, but I’m looking forward to it.

“Last night, he was going through some old footage on his phone of him and Rani, and it broke my heart. He’s a fantastic father and stepfather.”
