Together for 40 years: the main secret of the happy marriage of Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell

Kurt Russell and Goldie Hawn met in 1966 on the set of a children’s musical. “He was charming but too young for me,” the actress said. She was 21 at the time and he was 16.

Relations between the actors did not develop until 1983, when their work paths crossed again, this time in the film “Extra Shift”. By that time, Goldie had already been married twice, and Kurt – once.

Three years after the start of the relationship, the couple had their only child together – Wyatt Russell, now also an actor.

In 2023, the relationship of Goldie and Kurt will celebrate 40 years, and their marriage (although not officially registered) can be called perfect and it will not be an exaggeration. The couple have carried their love, respect and devotion for decades and are ready to share their wisdom.

The first thing Goldie points out is the very absence of a stamp in the passport. “If I was married, I would have divorced a long time ago. Marriage is an interesting psychological thing. It is essential if you need to feel connected to someone. But if you are independent and enjoy that independence, there is something special about not being married. This gives you freedom to make decisions. I chose to stay here and Kurt chose to stay. And we like this choice, “shared the actress.

Goldie noted that marriage is not a prerequisite for a solid relationship at all. All that is required is the desire to be together and it must be mutual.

“Relationships are also about not losing ourselves in each other. To be together, to be the two pillars supporting the house and the roof, and to be different. Don’t agree with everything, but learn to deal with disagreement,” says Hawn. That’s the secret.
