Kate Hudson: “I´m totally single”
13 Dec
Kate Hudson is featured on the January cover of Harpers Bazaar. In the interview, the 29-year-old actress talks about dating, friendship and her son Ryder Russell Robinson. Here are the highlights!
On her great figure: “Life is too short to be concerned with anything but having a great time. Sports are big in my life. I swim, run, bike and dance, play volleyball and soccer, and I want to start training for a triathlon. I´m one of those people who love to be active. I like to run about 5K, three to four times a week. I try to do it under 30 minutes. It´s a workout.
On the media: “They´ve said maybe four times recently that I´m pregnant. Because I´m leaning over in the picture! It´s all bullshit. Excuse my language but it is. Women´s body change – they change all the time.”
On her pregnancy: “I was so huge. I mean, I couldn´t believe how much I gained. But I didn´t even think about it until I had him. (son Ryder Russell Robinson). I actually thought I looked normal. One of my girlfriends was reminding me how at my baby shower I said: ´You know what? If you looked at me from the back, you probably couldn´t tell I was pregnant, right?´ My girlfriend said it was one of the funniest things ever, because I was so huge you could see the baby on either side of my back.”
On losing the baby weight: “Well, after I had him, I just looked at myself and it was like, how did this happen? And then I had to do a movie. So I had to lose it.”
On friendship: “My mom gave a toast at my sister-in-law´s bridal shower. She said: ´Nothing lasts for ever. Everything is impermanent and when things get hard and tough and difficult, it´s the girls who stick with you. And it´s so easy to lose sight of.´ We as women want to give ourselves to the men we´re with – it´s human nature. But my mom´s thing is, no matter how comfortable you get in relationships, don´t lose sight of your girlfriends.”
On dating: “I´m enjoying dating. (But now) I´m single. I´m totally single.”
On monogamy: “Someone said to me: ´Do you believe in monogamy?´ and I said ´No´. But it turned into this whole thing. But I just said ´We´re animals. Monogamy is not natural instinct´.”
On remarrying: “I would. If it was important to the person. If it was important to him (Pointing to Ryder).”
On maintaining love: “I´ve learned it takes a lot of work, and you´ve got to have a really good time with the person. Because that fairy tale is based on a very strong foundation of a family, and honesty – sometimes brutal honesty. For a family to continue to be very close, it takes a lot of effort.”
On her son Ryder: “He´s so independent. He´s so funny. He´s really good kid.”
