[Music] these photos capture the changing face of Goldie Hawn and current Russells romance over the decades has there ever been a Hollywood romance more enduring than that of Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell after overcoming several hurdles at the beginning they went on to be a devoted and absolutely adorable couple they never want to get married and have often given their reasoning in interviews but they've lasted longer at this point too many weds couples their relationship has now been pushed beyond the 30 year mark and cameras have chronicled every step Horne and Russell actually met for the very first time in 1968 they were on the set of a Disney musical named the one and only genuine original family band both played only very small roles but they ran into each other during filming Horne was 21 at the time while Russell was only 16 in 2012 Horne spoke on BBC Radio 4's Desert Island Discs about her and Russell's first meeting I was 21 and he was 16 and I thought he was adorable but he was much too young she said and then years later we met up again and I liked him and I remembered the highlights him very much when I first met him the second meeting to which Horne is referring took place many years later in 1983 Horne and Russell both established actors at that point had been cast opposite one another in a drama film swing shift but a lot of things had happened since then both had married had children and then divorced Horne had actually been divorced twice there was a spark between the actors almost immediately I didn't have in my mind what I was going to see Russell said of horn in a 20-17 interview with TV talk show host Connor O'Brien she had a great body and so the first that came out was man you've got a great figure it kind of came out quickly and it could have been wrong luckily horn was flattered as filming was ongoing Russell took horn out to the Los Angeles Playboy Club so they could rehearse for a dance scene in the movie but it turned into a date two hours later we were still talking we hadn't danced at all Russell reminisced on live with Kelly and Ryan in 2018 the duo began a relationship and shortly afterwards had a son Wyatt Russell came along in 1986 and he had free half-siblings already in the world these were oliver and kate hudson on his mother's side both of whom would also become actors and boston russell on his father's side not long after why it was born russell one horn starred in another movie skevur this was overboard a romantic comedy upon its release in 1987 it gained mostly lukewarm reviews but critics did praise the performance of the two lead actors over the years it gained more fans and the movie is generally thought of as a cult classic now throughout the 1990s Russell scored some notable professional successes these included starring roles in the movies backdraft tombstone and Stargate he also wrote produced and starred in escape from LA the sequel to his iconic 1980s dystopian cult hit escape from New York porn on the other hand took a break from acting to care for her dying mother but she did have some hits in the decade including the First Wives Club in 2000 rumors started to spread that Horne Russell were about to split up extramarital affairs were possibly involved media suggested Russell had been photographed leaving a massage parlor an anonymous insiders told two Daily Mail newspaper that the couple had been having a difficult emotional time no matter what had actually taken place the crisis seemed to be a big deal for the couple thus in March 2001 The Guardian newspaper reported it looks as if another long-term Hollywood relationship has hit the rocks as reports this morning hint Russell and Goldie have separated after 17 years together it took until 2017 for the news to come out about the exact details of the split closer weekly reported on it in October of that year an insider told the magazine about what happened when the massage parlor photos came out Goldie's ego was crushed she was furious and devastated it didn't break them apart but Goldie never forgot that incident they said so what did pull them apart it might have been another man according to the insider who spoke to closer Horne and Russell were having trouble communicating in 2004 that year Horne went to India to spend some time with her famous friends and former cricket star Imran Khan the sportsman turned politician has always denied an affair took place but Russel was reportedly furious according to closest anonymous source Russell went on a jealousy kick and the couple called an adult time out to get some space so tempers could cool Russell decided he wanted some time away from horn and the two went their separate ways but as we all know the break-up didn't last the insider explained what went on between the couple it was rough but ultimately they were in it for the long haul and their children were a big part of that decision they weren't about to tear up their family the source told the magazine in 2017 and indeed before long Horne and Russell made up and their bond became stronger in the years that followed their near split horn Russell did indeed seem to grow even closer they appeared together frequently at premieres and always looked loved up but one big question kept being put to them in interviews why considering that they clearly loved each other did they refuse to tie the knot Mike Wallace of CBS News put the question to the couple in 2005 why not marry it's not as if we didn't talk about it we talked about it a lot Russell told the TV show and the bottom line of it was neither of us really cared in that regard Goldie and I don't have much truck with society we live outside of society to a large degree both of them indicated they would feel trapped in a traditional marriage I don't like the idea of someone closing the door and saying you can't walk out the door I don't like that feeling Horne explained to CBS Russell then cut him with and if you have a girl who says that then you don't cheat Russell also shared how he viewed the ups and downs in their relationship we have a lot of good days he said that's why I figured it this way if it's 3% really bad and 7% not good but 90% fabulous I think I'll take that I would obviously say that ours has been 2% really bad 2% so-so and 96% fabulous in 2012 the 66 year old Horne told Daily Mail that she and Russell always put in the effort to keep their relationship fresh we've been together for 29 years now and I think if two people want to make it work you make it work but if one doesn't then your son she said she went on I don't know if it's been hard work but that's all I wanted out of my life a good relationship a happy family of mind and body and I feel very honored that this has happened but you do have to put your time in and for the Russell Horne partnership that work simply didn't involve a wedding Paul's past two marriages had it seemed put her off the idea of nuptials I've been married twice she told TV talk show host Alan Carr on chatty man in 2015 basically once you've done it once once you've done it twice you realize that marriage or the act of marrying has nothing to do with success and in 2016 horn told the panelists of TV show loose women that a marriage between her and Russell wouldn't have lasted I would have been long divorced if I'd been married she said marriage is an interesting psychological thing if you need to feel bound to someone then it's important to be married but Horne went on if you have independence if you have enough money and enough sense of independence and you like your independence there's something psychological about not being married because it gives you the freedom to make decisions one way or the other so for me I chose to stay current chose to stay and Horne also said that she had asked her children if she and Russell would marry and Horne also said that she had asked her children if she and Russell should marry and had been told no they loved it it was perfect the way it was they didn't want any more trouble she explained Kate Hudson demonstrates at her own faults when she posted a throwback picture of Horne and Russell on her Instagram account mama Goldie and par killing it a tee style love you madly deeply profoundly she wrote in May 2017 Russell and Horne received stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in a joint ceremony it was a very happy occasion many famous people attended including Quentin Tarantino and Reese Witherspoon and Hudson paying tribute to her parents took to the stage to give a special speech Hudson speech made good-natured fun of the fact Russell and Horne never married I always fall I'd be talking about them a wedding or something but since the wedding doesn't seem to be in our near future ever this may be my only opportunity she said and the audience chuckled appreciatively hudson went on the real legacy is what they have instilled in us kids that they have so very mentally protected that they have so vehemently protect and defend the relationships they fiercely refuse to lose sight off together and the deep feelings of love and nurturing they reserved for the most important things we have in this life family so that's what these stars represent to me Russell too had something sweet to say at the Hollywood ceremony his words were directed right at Horne Goldie to you I own my Wonderful Life the actor announced when he got on stage simply put Goldie I cherish you all of the stars in the sky or on the boulevard don't hold a candle to that Russell talked about what an honor it was to receive the star and he concluded with there's no one else that I'd rather be next to for all of that than Goldie Hawn and when Horne got the mic she joked once more about marriage did we just get married we've never had celebrations like this before she said at the same time Russell and Horne got their Walk of Fame stars both also happened to be promoting new movies Russell was appearing in the Marvel film guardians of the galaxy vol 2 while homeless starring ops the Amy Schumer in the comedy snatched it was then an exciting time for both of them Horne told newspaper USA Today that she was having a great time being on a promotional trailer alongside her partner we both didn't really know when the movies were going to be released she said we haven't done that in a long time and even though we're promoting the film separately it's just a really fun time in our lives in May 2017 Horne talked about the ceremony and about her relationship in general with People magazine she reminisced about when she met the adult Russell on the set of Swing Swift he was so good-looking but he had no pretense about him I could tell right away he wasn't a womanizer she said one of the reasons horn initially liked him was because she was so good with her children what really got me was when I watched my kids when they'd come to the set and how he was with them he was amazing with them he was such a natural the actress told people now Horne and Russell have five grandchildren Horne shared with people what she believed were the secrets of a happy marriage love gratitude compassion because sometimes every man or every woman will drive their partner crazy family fun laughs sex she announced if you don't nurture that and remember you're done and Horne also talks about how she and Russell dealt with difficulties in their relationship monogamy is a very tough order she told magazine you're in the prime of your life and you're attracted to other people potentially you have fantasies about that it really runs the risk if you will if you're not aware that you could maybe screw up a really good thing by doing that but Horne and Russell didn't of course screw it up I'm sure I've been party to anchor it's been we're all normal this way Horne told people it's like you really like to thank I didn't you what the woman says you were looking at her my answer would be of course why not she's beautiful home continues would you want a man who doesn't look who doesn't feel inspired by the beauty or the curves of a woman's body or the way she is I mean come on we're human beings this is I guess an elasticity of our relationship otherwise is going to break just like a rubber band horn Auto revealed to people her appreciation for what Russell said at the Walk of Fame ceremony it turned out to be a love fest she said the last thing he said was I'll always cherish you I didn't expect him to say those things I had no idea he was going to be so beautiful what's next for Horne and Russell despite their long stated opposition to a marriage in 2018 they appeared together in Netflix's the Christmas Chronicles as one of the most famous married couples ever mr. and mrs.
