What to Know About Kate Hudson's Famous Family

Kate has known Russell almost her entire life, so it's no wonder she's always viewed him as her father. "I have a stepfather who stepped in and played a huge, huge part in sharing what it is to have a dependable father figure in our life," Kate said in a 2016 interview on "The Howard Stern Show," adding that he was always there for her through all "the hard stuff" in her life. "Kurt is not a perfect man — no one is. But that trust I got from him in terms of his dependability was just priceless for me."
