Kate Hudson recently opened up about the challenges of motherhood during an interview on Kylie Kelce’s podcast, “Not Gonna Lie.” The actress, known for her roles in films like “How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days,” shared her experiences as a mom to three children: Ryder, 21, Bingham, 13, and Rani, 6.
In the candid conversation, Hudson discussed how she sometimes finds herself in conflict with her kids, particularly with her teenage son, Bingham. She admitted to being “combative” at times, especially when he refuses to follow her requests. This has led her to realize the importance of apologizing when she feels she has gone too far in her parenting approach.
Hudson emphasized that acknowledging her mistakes teaches her children valuable lessons. “When you walk away from it, you can recognize where you might’ve created more of a problem than you did a lesson,” she said. She believes that being able to admit when she could have handled a situation better is crucial. It models humility and conflict resolution for her kids, rather than stubbornness.
Reflecting on her 21 years of parenting, Hudson noted that everyone makes mistakes. She stressed that even in the most loving environments, parents will still mess up at times. “You’re gonna f–k your kids up at some point in some way,” she said, acknowledging the reality of parenting.
Hudson welcomed her first son, Ryder, in January 2004 with her ex-husband, Chris Robinson. She then had Bingham with ex-fiancé Matt Bellamy in July 2011. Her youngest child, daughter Rani, was born in October 2018 with her current fiancé, Danny Fujikawa.
Through her experiences, Hudson aims to strengthen her connection with her children by showing them that it’s okay to admit when you’re wrong. She believes this openness fosters a deeper bond and teaches them how to handle conflicts in their own lives.
