Kate Hudson has been happily engaged to musician Danny Fujikawa since September 2021. But despite five years of wearing her engagement ring, the Glass Onion star is admitting that walking down the aisle remains far easier said than done.
Speaking candidly with her brother Oliver Hudson on their popular podcast, Sibling Revelry, the 47-year-old actress opened up about the reality of planning her nuptials.
Despite boasting an estimated net worth of $80 million, Kate confessed that the sheer scale — and eye-watering expense — of putting on a wedding has left her with serious cold feet.

Kate could follow in Goldie and Kurt’s footsteps

But the hesitation to rush to the altar might also run in the family. Goldie and Kurt have famously enjoyed one of Hollywood’s longest and happiest romantic partnerships for over 40 years without ever tying the knot.
Kate — who shares seven-year-old daughter Rani Rose with Danny — has previously teased that she might just be happy staying “engaged forever.”
