Why Kate Hudson Decorated Her Christmas Tree Alone This Year
As the 2024 holiday season approaches, Kate Hudson gave fans a glimpse into her holiday preparations by sharing two posts on social media.
Kate Hudson is proving that even Hollywood stars deal with the realities of parenting during the holidays.
The “How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days” actress is a proud mom of three, each from different chapters of her life. She shares her oldest son, Ryder Robinson, 20, with her ex-husband Chris Robinson, lead singer of The Black Crowes. The former couple was married from 2000 to 2007 and have maintained a co-parenting relationship since their divorce.
In July 2011, Kate welcomed her second child, Bingham Hawn Bellamy, now 13, with her ex-fiancé Matt Bellamy, frontman of the band Muse. Though their romantic relationship ended in 2014, the pair continues to co-parent amicably, frequently sharing moments of their blended family on social media.
As the 2024 holiday season approaches, Kate Hudson gave fans a glimpse into her holiday preparations by sharing two posts on social media, showcasing how she’s getting her home ready for the season.
Kate Hudson Goes Solo For Christmas Tree Decorating
The “Glass Onion” actress recently shared that her Christmas tree decorating tradition has become a solo activity after her kids declared they were “over it.”
“Started as a family tradition, ended as a solo mission… with wine,” she hilariously captioned an Instagram carousel. In the first photo, Hudson flashes a radiant smile as she sits in front of a beautifully decorated Christmas tree, holding a glass of wine. Dressed in a cozy green sweater set, Hudson perfectly captures the festive spirit.
Additional photos show Hudson happily sipping her wine and thoughtfully placing ornaments on her tree, clearly enjoying the holiday tradition. “I wasn’t involved with this in any way so I’m not sure what new family you’ve got going on.. I’m telling Mom,” her brother, Oliver Hudson, commented on the post.
Kate Hudson Claims Her Kids Are ‘Over’ Decorating
In a TikTok shared the same day, Hudson revealed why decorating the Christmas tree, once a family activity, had turned into “a solo mission.”
She opened the video by explaining that her kids “just decided they were over it.” “So, I have to finish up by myself,” she said as she got up from a chair to hang more decorations on her Christmas tree.
The actress then added a playful twist by singing a remixed version of Holly Jolly Christmas, changing the lyrics to: “It’s a lonely, lonely Christmas / just me decorating here / Everywhere there’s usually children / but tonight it’s just me alone / sad and lonely mom.”
She then quipped, “Maybe I should have a Negroni.”

Hudson was born into Hollywood royalty, so life in the spotlight is second nature to her. The actress, born on April 19, 1979, in Los Angeles, California, is the daughter of legendary actress Goldie Hawn and musician-actor Bill Hudson.
However, Hudson has often credited her close bond with her mom’s longtime partner, Kurt Russell, as the most influential father figure in her life. Goldie and Kurt, who have been together since 1983, have built one of Hollywood’s most iconic and enduring blended families, capturing hearts with their decades-long love story and strong family ties.
