Kate Hudson "Starts Crying" When Thinking About 18-Year-Old Son At College

Kate Hudson finds it "hard" to talk about her son leaving home.

Speaking to Access Hollywood, Hudson, 43, said she is still adjusting to life without her 18-year-old son Ryder, who recently left home to start college.

The Almost Famous actress, 43, shared: "It's hard to even talk about. I'll have a moment where I'll just start crying because something will just hit me that he's not here."

Despite this, Hudson — who has Ryder with ex-husband, Black Crowes singer Chris Robinson — is also feeling excited for her son.

She explained: "He's having a blast, he's in the city, he's like ready. And that makes me so excited. I'm so excited for his future. When you see your kids thriving and feeling good in their skin that's all I can ask for."

Hudson — who also has Bing, 11, with Matt Bellamy, and Rani Rose, three, with fiance Danny Fujikawa — can also relate to her son and where he finds himself in his own life.

She said: "He was in such a good place and I remember that time in my life when everything in front of you is possible. And I could see it in him and I was just so overwhelmed and I was going to cry."

Hudson's new movie, Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery, premieres on Netflix on Dec 23. — BANG SHOWBIZ
