Let me tell you something fascinating about Hollywood's most enduring love story. Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell have been together since way back in 1983, and fans can't help but wonder: Did they ever get married? The truth is, no, they’ve never tied the knot. But here's the kicker—after 35 years of being together, they don't seem to need a piece of paper to define their bond.
Even though they skipped the formalities of a wedding, this iconic duo has built a family together. They share a 31-year-old son, Wyatt Russell, who’s carving out his own path in the entertainment world. Goldie also has two kids from her previous marriage to Bill Hudson, Oliver, who's now 41, and Kate, who's 38. On Kurt's side, he has a 37-year-old son, Boston, with his ex-wife, Season Hubley. So, as you can see, they’ve got a blended family that works beautifully for them.
Why Space Matters in a Long-Term Relationship
After all these years, you might think they’d be glued together at the hip, but that's not the case. In a recent interview, Goldie opened up about the importance of maintaining personal space in a long-term relationship. At 72 years young, she explained, “At the beginning, you want to see each other all the time. But for a healthy, long-term relationship, 68 percent of the time is good.” That's right, folks—space is key to keeping the spark alive.

The Dream Home with a Unique Twist
In November 2016, it was revealed that Goldie and Kurt are in the process of building their dream home. But here’s the fun part—they’re designing separate living quarters for each of them. Can you imagine that? “They are personally in charge of designing and hiring contractors to create their own individual wings of the new house,” a close friend of the couple told Closer Weekly. “There’s been some drama though, as Goldie changes her mind during construction, which drives Kurt crazy.”
Now, their design choices reflect their distinct personalities. Goldie’s wing will feature floor-to-ceiling windows, along with dedicated spaces for meditation and yoga. “Kurt might stretch out on the floor for a yoga pose or two, but he’s not really into meditation,” the friend revealed. On the flip side, Kurt loves hunting, something Goldie isn’t too fond of. “Their only joint project is designing and building their house,” the friend added.
Why Marriage Isn’t on Their Agenda
Goldie has been vocal about why she and Kurt never walked down the aisle. In fact, she once admitted on ITV's Loose Women that if they had married, they’d probably be divorced by now. “Marriage is an interesting sociological concept,” she shared. “If you feel the need to be bound to someone, then marriage is important. But if you have independence, if you have enough money and a strong sense of self, there’s something freeing about not being married. It gives you the freedom to make decisions without needing permission.”
Here’s another twist: their relationship is described as "open." A friend explained, “Goldie believes that if you want to keep your man for decades, you need to give them space to be themselves, which might even include being with other women.” This philosophy might seem unconventional, but it’s part of what keeps their bond strong. “They’re both old-school hippies at heart,” the friend said. “They don’t think a piece of paper or a ceremony really matters. As Goldie once put it, ‘A lasting relationship isn’t about marriage; it’s about compatibility and communication.’”
