Kate & Oliver Hudson: Why They Won’t Drop Their Last Name After Dad’s Slam

After Kate Hudson and her brother, Oliver, became entangled in a bitter family feud with their estranged dad, Bill Hudson, early last week, fans started wondering why the actors never dropped their dad’s last name, when he first abandoned them decades ago. Well, here’s why.

Bill Hudson Blasts Goldie Hawn For Ruining Relationship With Oliver & Kate

Sadly, the story about how Bill Hudson became so estranged from his children, Kate and Oliver, gets worse. During his interview, Bill slammed his ex-wife, Goldie Hawn, for cheating, and claims she’s the reason why his own children hate him.
Bill Hudson, 65, has revealed that he believes his ex-wife, Goldie Hawn, 69, purposely pitted their children against him. In a scathing new interview, the father of five — including actors Oliver, 38, and Kate Hudson, 36, — claims that his ex-wife “wilfully alienated” their son and daughter from him. He also claims that she told him it “made for a better story.” Ouch.
