Kate and Oliver Hudson recently discovered that they have an adopted brother named Paul, who was put up for adoption on their father Bill Hudson’s side of the family. Paul reached out to them about eight years ago, revealing that he had a happy childhood and didn’t initially feel the need to connect with his biological family. He left the decision to reach out to them to his wife, who ultimately decided to make the connection. Kate and Oliver, who are the children of Goldie Hawn and Bill Hudson, were surprised to learn about Paul’s existence but have not had the opportunity to truly get to know him yet.
Despite not knowing Paul very well, Oliver mentioned that he physically resembles the Hudson family and shares some common interests with them, such as fishing. Kate also noted that Paul’s children are creative and athletic, which fits into the Hudson family dynamic. One aspect they are unsure about is whether Paul inherited their family’s musical abilities, as both Kate and Oliver joked about their own musical talents. The siblings expressed curiosity about getting to know Paul better and discovering more about their shared family history.
On an episode of their podcast, Kate and Oliver opened up about how they were informed about Paul’s existence. Oliver received a note from Paul under the door of his house, revealing that he wanted to have a conversation with them. Through further investigation with the help of 23andMe, they also discovered the possibility of having another half-sibling. Kate recalled that Paul thought Oliver would be better suited to receive the note and initially didn’t believe that Oliver’s friend was his assistant when she called him on behalf of Oliver.
In addition to connecting with Paul, Kate has also made an effort to reach out to her other siblings from her father’s side of the family. She realized that she had two sisters she hadn’t been in contact with for reasons unrelated to their family dynamics. After having an emotional conversation with one of her sisters, they both agreed to start fresh and build a relationship together. Kate emphasized the importance of reconnecting with her siblings and changing their family dynamics for the better.
Overall, Kate and Oliver Hudson’s family expanded unexpectedly with the discovery of their adopted brother Paul. The siblings have shown curiosity and openness towards getting to know Paul and their other siblings better, despite the unconventional circumstances surrounding their family connections. Through their podcast and personal experiences, Kate and Oliver have shared their journey of discovery and reunion with their extended family members, emphasizing the importance of communication and connection within their family. Their story serves as a reminder of the importance of family ties and the power of building relationships with newfound relatives.
