Hudson said he expected to process his relationships with his two father figures — his father, musician Bill Hudson, from whom Hawn filed for divorce in 1980; and Kurt Russell, whom Hudson has dated since 1983. “I went in there thinking it was all gonna be about my dad, and then Kurt, my step-dad who raised me,” Hudson said. “But whatever that connection was, my dad who wasn’t there. My mom was gonna sort of be easy-breezy, because she was always the constant in my life.”
“She would be working and away, or she would have new boyfriends that I didn’t really like,” he continued. “She’d be living her life, and she was an amazing mother. This was my own perception as a child who didn’t have a dad and who needed her to be there, you know, and she just wasn’t sometimes. And she came out [at Hoffman] far more than even my dad, who wasn’t there.”
Hudson said that his limited interactions with his father were always positive. “When I was with him, it was incredible,” he said. “He paid attention to me, we played football, we played basketball, we were on the beach, he taught me how to fish. He was so present, but he was just never there.”
