Were Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell married? Learn all there is to know as the actress explained her marriage decision.
Goldie Hawn opened up about why she never wed her longtime partner Kurt Russell and voiced her concerns with marriage. When asked in an interview with CNN why she never chose to marry her partner of over 40 years, the 77-year-old posed another question: “Why should we get married?”
Hawn explained that both she and Russell, 72, have been previously married to other people and she realized that when the relationship doesn’t work out, “it’s always ugly.” “Somebody has to take a look and say, ‘How many divorces are fun? How many divorces actually don’t cost money? How many divorces make you hate the person more than you did before? How many divorces have hurt children?’” she asked.
Hawn said she enjoys not being locked into a marriage, adding that she can wake up every morning and actively decide if she wants to be in the partnership. “Relationships are hard,” she said. “They’re not always easy. There’s all kind of hurdles that we go through. There’s things that we believe and things that we don’t believe in that we agree on.”
In a March interview with Variety, Russell cleared up a moment at the 1989 Oscars that caused people to speculate whether the two would soon tie the knot.
While presenting the award for best directing, the couple teased the idea of marriage because they didn’t like what was written for them at the time. “We’re taking a shower together, getting ready to go,” Russell said, “and we looked at each other and said, ‘There’s gonna be a lot of people watching, so let’s get this right.’ And we started punching it back and forth for about 20 minutes. We didn’t tell anybody anything about going off-script.”
The two originally met on the set of “The One and Only, Genuine, Original Family Band,” whichh was released in 1968 when Hawn was 22 and Russell was 17.
