Kate Hudsonis in no rush to walk down the aisle.
During her appearance onThe Drew Barrymore Showon Monday, March 3, the actress, 45, explained how although she’s happily engaged toDanny Fujikawashe’s not as excited about wedding planning. TheRunning Pointstar has been engaged to her fiancé, 38, for three years and isn’t sure when they’ll tie the knot — if ever.
“I just don’t have the same kind of like, ‘Oh my God, I’m going to get married, and I can’t wait and I can’t wait for the party.’ It’s the opposite. I’m like, ‘Okay, I have to plan it and then it’s going to cost so much money’ and it’s just a lot,” she toldDrew BarrymoreandRoss Mathews.

Hudson added that she’s open to the idea of just staying engaged.
“I like the idea of being engaged forever,” she said. “The contractual thing is tough for me. I like my freedom … I like the concept of freedom.”
The thought of “signing the government contract” makes Hudson uneasy. She pointed out that her mother,Goldie Hawn, andKurt Russellhavebeen together since 1983and have never made their relationship legally official.
“They never signed the contract. They’ve been engaged since I was 7,” Hudson said.

However, she noted that she would “maybe” elope, and still wants the “gravy boat” and all that goes with a wedding.
