Oliver Hudson'S Secret To Raising Grounded Kids In Hollywood
Oliver Hudson Shares Parenting Wisdom
When it comes to steering kids clear of the Hollywood entitlement trap, Oliver Hudson is taking notes from his legendary roots. At the Make-A-Wish annual Wish Gala in Los Angeles on December 5, the Sibling Revelry podcast host spilled the tea on his upbringing by Hollywood royalty Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell, and how it shaped his own parenting approach.
In an exclusive chat with E! News, Oliver, 49, emphasized the importance of family values, saying, "It starts within the four walls of your home. It doesn't matter what any outside perspective is, how famous you are, how much money you have. When it's just you and your family is what really matters." The wisdom imparted by Goldie and Kurt was crucial in nurturing Oliver and his siblings – Kate Hudson, Boston Russell, and Wyatt Russell – all while navigating the glitz of Tinseltown.
Taking After Hollywood Legends
Oliver was all praises for his parents' hands-on approach, especially when presenting Goldie with the Power of a Wish Award at the gala. Reflecting on their parenting style, he noted, "It was very important for them not to have entitled children." This philosophy continues with Oliver as he raises his kids – Wilder, 18, Bodhi, 15, and Rio, 12 – with wife Erinn Bartlett.
Despite the glamorous shadow of Hollywood, Oliver maintains focus on family first, much like Goldie and Kurt did. This commitment to grounded values, even amidst Hollywood's allure, is a testament to the legacy of parenting that Goldie and Kurt have passed down. As Oliver navigates fatherhood, he's proving that staying true to one's roots can be the ultimate star move in raising well-rounded kids.
