Oliver Hudson has been giving his mother, Goldie Hawn, her flowers, even if his kids do not yet realize how legendary she truly is.
Speaking to Us Weekly at the Make-A-Wish Foundation Gala at the Fairmont Century Plaza in Beverly Hills on Friday, December 5, Hudson reflected on growing up in a household of Hollywood greats, and how different that perspective is for his own children.
It is noteworthy that Hudson shares sons Wilder and Bodhi and daughter Rio with wife Erinn Bartlett.
“She definitely has an influence on my kids, like, whether they know it or not, you know what I mean?” he said.
Hudson explained that while his children are aware of “Goldie Hawn,” they do not fully grasp the cultural weight their grandmother carries in the entertainment world.
“They don’t see her that way,” he shared.
“They see her as ‘Go Go’ — as grandma. We call her ‘Go Go,’ [that’s] mom, and ‘Go Gee’ is Kurt [Russell]. So yes, they see her [and him] as Go Go and Go Gee but they understand most of it.”
Nonetheless, he shared that he believes the realization will come with age. “
“I’m not sure they understand how iconic she really is and how she defined a generation for women. They will though, in time. They’re gonna learn.”
Hudson also revealed to the outlet that he hopes to one day create a documentary exploring Hawn’s “fascinating” life.
