Kate Hudson Says “Marriage Is Not A Golden Ticket” But She Is Committed To Fiancé Matt Bellamy
Kate Hudson is the cover girl for Women's Health this October and she opens up all about her romance with Muse singer Matt Bellamy, who she's been engaged to for more than three years now. Even though they aren't walking down the aisle anytime soon, the mother of two is committed to her man.
"We're working, it's a long engagement," the 35-year-old star told Women's Health during her cover shoot interview. "I think the best part is that knowing you're working towards the idea of a commitment that is hopefully as long of a stretch as you can pull it and forever seems beautiful."
The Wish I Was Here actress isn't sweating the marriage part of her relationship because her ultimate role model, her mother Goldie Hawn, has been happy in her longtime relationship with Kurt Russell and they still aren't married.
"My parents aren't married. And one of the reasons why they never got married is because they had been married before and they liked it the way it was. They didn't feel like they needed a piece of paper to be committed," Kate explained to the publication.
"So for me I know that marriage is not a golden ticket," she added.
Although the actress and clothing designer (Kate just created her own line of workout clothes called Fabletics) doesn't need a piece of paper to prove her commitment, she does have to work hard to maintain her long-distance relationship.
"How I make it work is we try not to spend too much time apart. We try not to spend more than two weeks apart. When you have kids it kind of goes without saying," she said.
When the couple does have time alone together they regularly enjoy date nights and leave the kids at home. "We do our date nights. From a movie, to dinner, to just not leaving our bed, to concerts. We like our dates," she admitted.
Kate has two children, son Ryder, 10, with her ex Chris Robinson and son Bing, 3, with Matt, both of which live with her in her Southern California home (which also used to be her childhood home).
