Kate Hudson and Danny Fujikawa are engaged, but the couple has no plans to get married anytime soon. The Song Sung Blue actress, 47, talked about her wedding plans with her partner on a recent episode of her Sibling Rivalry podcast with brother Oliver Hudson. She has been with musician Danny, 40, since 2017, and they got engaged in 2021. The couple shares a 7-year-old daughter, Rani, born in October 2018.
So why the holdup? For Kate, it comes down to money and guest lists. 'That's part of why I don't want to get married - it's too expensive,' she said. 'I just want hors d'oeuvres. I wanna do, like, chips and salsa.' Kate, who is also mom to son Ryder, 22, with ex Chris Robinson, and son Bingham, 15, with ex-fiancé Matt Bellamy, explained that her large family makes a small ceremony impossible. 'I still am not married. I'm just engaged, and I keep thinking about a wedding, like what are we gonna do,' she explained.
And then every time we start thinking about who we have to invite, Danny's like, 'I just want a small wedding.' I'm like, 'Our family alone is like 50 people.' There's a million kids, she added. There's a million uncles and aunts and cousins. Oliver, 50, chimed in with his own wedding philosophy. He and his wife, Erinn Bartlett, got married in Mexico in 2006 with just 80 guests - and some strict rules.
Kate has hinted at this before. Earlier, in an interview past year, she admitted she and Danny may never actually tie the knot. For now, it sounds like being engaged works just fine - no venue, no 200-person headcount, and definitely no catering bill.
