Kate Hudson Shares Why Marriage May Not Be in Her Future

The actress revealed her preference for long-term engagement over marriage, inspired by her parents' unconventional relationship.

Kate Hudson, engaged to Danny Fujikawa since 2021, expressed her lack of urgency to plan a wedding during an appearance on The Drew Barrymore Show
Hudson cited her upbringing by Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell, who have been in a committed relationship without marrying since 1983, as a key influence on her perspective.
She explained that the 'contractual' nature of marriage feels restrictive, emphasizing her appreciation for freedom and the idea of choosing to be with someone daily.
Hudson admitted she finds wedding planning daunting due to its costs and complexity, and is open to eloping or staying engaged indefinitely.
The couple, who began dating in 2016 after years of friendship, share a 6-year-old daughter, Rani Rose, and maintain a strong partnership without feeling pressured to marry.
