Oliver, Kate, Boston, and Wyatt

Kurt Russell and Goldie Hawn have a Hollywood love story for the ages, made even cuter by their blended family with kids Oliver, Kate, Boston, and Wyatt. They started dating after filming 1983’s Swing Shift and they’ve been together ever since. Their four kids love to show support and admiration for their mom and dad.

From Russell’s previous marriage to Season Hubley, he welcomed his son Boston; from Hawn’s relationship with Bill Hudson, she had Oliver and Kate. Together, they have one son, Wyatt, their youngest.

The couple revealed the secret ingredient to their long-lasting relationship in a joint interview with Parade magazine in 2020: “It’s not about what you do, it’s how you do it,” Hawn said, with Russell adding, “Goldie can literally physically walk away sometimes and make me laugh. She’s funny by nature. She just is.”

Despite being famous parents, Hawn was adamant that her kids had to carve out their own path in the business. “..they have to cut their own way,” she said, at a screening of her film, The Sugarland Express, at the Academy Museum back in May. “They don’t want advice from their parents. Who does?… Too much advice. And also they’re doing it on their own.” 

With their biological dad out of the picture, Oliver and Kate grew up with Russell as their father figure, referring to Russell as their “Pa”. “Kurt came into my life when I was six, five or six, and essentially he raised me, Oliver explained on his and Kate’s podcast, Sibling Revelry. “I’m the man I am today because of him, right?”

For her part, Kate has long looked up to her mother’s parenting style, telling PEOPLE in 2020 that “Mom was so available to being my greatest cheerleader,” expressing hopes to pass that kind of confidence onto her daughter, Rani.

For her part, Hawn seems proud of what she’s passed on to her kids. “My legacy are my children,” Hawn said in a 2025 interview, according to People. Asked about her kids ‘success in Hollywood, she elaborated, “What feels good is that they’re amazing human beings. They happen to be talented.”

Read on for everything we know about Oliver, Kate, Boston, and Wyatt.

Oliver

Oliver Hudson was born on September 7, 1976 to Hawn and ex-husband Bill Hudson. Like most of his famous family, Oliver is an actor who has credits in a number of movies and shows such as Rules of Engagement, Nashville, And Just Like That…, and Grown Ups 2. He also co-hosts Sibling Revelry alongside Kate.

Despite being estranged and publicly disowned from his and Kate’s birth father, Oliver admitted to having buried the hatchet with his bio-dad in 2018 on Watch What Happens Live. Still, Oliver has a much closer relationship with his mom and Russell.

“My parents are amazing grandparents,” Oliver told Us in 2021. “We’re a very tight family. We all live very close to each other. … They’re amazing people, amazing grandparents, amazing parents.

Oliver married his wife, Erinn Barlett, in 2006, a move that came with some inherent trepidations about marriage. “I didn’t want to get married,” Oliver told E!’s Daily Pop. “I thought that the perfect relationship was Kurt and Mom,” he explained. “I was a child of divorce, that didn’t work, and then I saw this working.” But after a conversation with his mom, he eased into it, and the two have been married for nearly 20 years.

Oliver and Erinn gave Russell and Hawn three grandchildren: sons Wilder Brooks and Bodhi Hawn, plus daughter Rio Laura. And they’re a very open family, as per his experience with Hawn and Russell: “Even now with my kids, we’re just naked people. That’s just the way it is,” he told PEOPLE in 2021. “Nudity has never been taboo. We were all born naked and it’s the way it is,” he added.

On her son’s parenting skills, Hawn has only good things to say. “He’s the greatest, most handsome, amazing father, actor, comedian, human, son,” Hawn told PEOPLE about Oliver. “He’s such a gift. They’re all gifts, all my children.”

Kate

Hawn’s second-born with Bill Hudson, Kate, arrived on April 19, 1979. She got her breakout in Cameron Crowe’s Almost Famous in 2000, when she was 21, which earned her a Golden Globe for Best Supporting Actress. She has gone on to have a storied career in film and television, and her credits include Glass Onion, How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days, Something Borrowed, and Bride Wars. She is also a co-founder of the Fabletics clothing line.

Since 2024, Kate has also been able to add “musician” to her impressive multi-hyphenate career, having released the studio album Glorious. She even dedicated a song, “Right on Time,” to her mother in the album’s recent deluxe edition. The song chronicles Hawn’s life before she became a household name, including her brief stint dancing at truck stops, Kate told The Los Angeles Times. “She would go-go dance in cages. Well, she did a couple. Then she was like, “I don’t think I want to do this—I’m going to New York.’”

Kate also credits Hawn with teaching her to “laugh loud, love big and live boldly,” as she wrote on Instagram on Mother’s Day. “You are the sunshine in all of our lives,” she captioned the carousel, which includes photos of Hawn waving glow sticks at a concert and dressing up as a princess with Kate’s daughter. Hawn returned the sentiment, calling Kate her “light” and “gift.”

The fact that Russell isn’t Kate’s biological dad has no bearing on the love she shares with him. On Father’s Day, Kate celebrated Russell alongside her kids’ fathers, writing “Got blessed with these fellas!” on Instagram alongside photos of Russell and Fujikawa.

Kate’s experience growing up in a blended family may have helped the way she navigates her current one. She has three children with three different fathers: Fujikawa, ex-husband Chris Robinson, and ex-fiance Matt Belamy. “I think the one thing that I learned from my mom is that no matter what you’re feeling and no matter what— when I see my friends talking s— about their ex-spouses in front of their kids, I get so upset because they don’t recognize how much that affects their child and how resentful their child will become of them,” Kate told the Divorce Sucks! With Laura Wasser podcast. Kate seems to have maintained a good relationship with both of her exes she coparents with. Her and Danny even spent Easter together with Belamy and his wife, Elle, back in 2022.

Boston

Kurt Russell welcomed son Boston on February 16, 1980 with ex-wife Season Hubley. Though Boston is far more private than his siblings, he was photographed at Hawn and Russell’s Hollywood Walk of Fame ceremony alongside half-sister, Kate, back in 2017.

Russell and Hubley met on the set of 1979’s Elvis biopic playing Elvis and Priscilla Presley, respectively. They married that same year, but were divorced only four years later in 1983.

Since Boston has stayed out of the spotlight and has no social media presence, little is known about him as opposed to his famous siblings. His only career credit in Hollywood is a production assistant role on his dad’s 1996 film, Executive Decision.  

Wyatt

On July 10, 1986, Hawn and Russell welcomed their first child together, Wyatt. He started out getting cameos as a child in his parents’ films Overboard and Escape from L.A., and he landed roles in 22 Jump Street and Everybody Wants Some! He went on to star in the prestige series Under the Banner of Heaven and the MCU’s The Falcon and the Winter Soldier and Thunderbolts*.

Though he’s become a successful actor himself, Wyatt wasn’t so rosy-eyed about being on sets as a child. Speaking in a joint interview with his dad for The Rake, he said “What I took away from being on set with you [Russell] wasn’t so much, ‘This is so much fun, and this is so great and you make money.’ I took away that you have to work really hard to make it work, and it was very stressful.”

Like his dad before him, Wyatt met his wife, actress Meredith Hagner, on set, while the two of them filmed Folks Hero & Funny Guy in 2016. The couple were married three years later, in a Western-themed wedding at Hawn’s house in Aspen, Colorado. They welcomed sons Buddy Prine and Boone Joseph in 2021 and 2024, respectively. Hagner announced Boone’s birth with an Instagram post that showed Wyatt leaning in to kiss Meredith as their new baby lay on her chest.

Wyatt seems to be a similarly doting uncle. He shared his emotional response to finding out his sister Kate was expecting her first daughter, telling People, “I was happy. I was teary-eyed because I know how badly she wanted a girl.”

Speaking about what it’s been like seeing his dad as a grandfather, Wyatt told Seth Meyers that “He’s awesome, ’cause he can do all of the hard sort of lessons that sometimes I don’t want to have to do.”
