Kate Hudson is feeling lucky this Father’s Day, and she made it clear it’s all thanks to Kurt Russell. The two became a family through his steadfast relationship to her mother Goldie Hawn, and on Sunday, Hudson shared all the ways Russell has been everything a father should be throughout her life.
45-year-old Hudson is Hawn’s child with actor Bill Hudson, to whom Hawn was married from 1976 to 1982. They also share Hudson’s older brother, 47-year-old Oliver. The children had been estranged from Hudson for years and Kate has repeatedly insisted that Russell filled that void with grace and love.

To Kate Hudson, this Father’s Day tribute belongs to Kurt Russell, the man who taught her the most valuable lessons
Just as much as she’s marveled at Russell’s dedication to being a father figure to her and Oliver, Kate is also awed by the persisting love and devotion he and Hawn display. “Their strongest value is their dedication to that unit,” she said in a cover story with PEOPLE.
“They’ve been through everything together, and it’s such an amazing thing to see,” she went on, “especially as they get older, how beautiful their relationship is. It’s so loving and caring. They’ve stuck with it. It’s like a very rare Hollywood story. They’re in it forever. It’s wild.”
