The answer to what fuels Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell's timeless romance is surprisingly simple: devotion without the usual Hollywood fanfare, or as the couple stated to Parade magazine in 2020, that, rather than focusing on what to do, one ought to see "how you do it". Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell have never married, choosing instead a partnership built on mutual respect, freedom, and endless laughter, which has lasted them more than any pieces of well-invested furniture now. Never shy of cherishing their unique bond, Hawn and Russell prove that love’s true script requires no formal vows or set social format. 

While the two had met back in 1966 on the sets of The One and Only, Genuine, Original Family Band, their story blossomed only about seventeen years later in 1983 from their work together on Swing Shift, where their on-screen chemistry soon turned off-screen magical. Over forty years later, their relationship remains as playful and tender as their beloved films. With a blended family including their son Wyatt Russell and children from their previous marriages, including actress Kate Hudson and recently Happy Gilmore 2 detected Oliver Hudson, they navigate life’s scenes with grace.
