Kurt Russell Shares Reason Why He and Goldie Hawn Prefer Living in Colorado Over Los Angeles

Famed actor Kurt Russell is sharing why he and longtime partner Goldie Hawn prefer living in Colorado over Los Angeles.

“What I enjoy most is that [Hawn] really likes it in Colorado,” Russell, 75, told Fox News Digital in an interview published on Sunday, March 22. “Wyatt [Russell] and [his wife] Meredith [Hagner] and their two boys, they live in Colorado now. So we like to spend as much time there as we can.”

The Big Trouble in Little China star continued of the Centennial State, “I’d like to be there more. And there’s a different kind of life there. “That’s primarily it. I’d like to be able to spend as much time there as possible.”

Russell and Hawn, 80 — who have been together since 1983 when they reconnected on the set of Swing Shift — own multiple properties across the United States. Currently, the pair split their time between their homes in Los Angeles, Palm Desert, California, Old Snowmass, Colorado and New York.

(Hawn shares daughter Kate Hudson and son Oliver Hudson with ex-husband Bill Hudson, while Russel shares son Boston Russell with his ex-wife Season Hubley. Hawn and Russell later completed their blended family when they welcomed Wyatt in 1986.)

“We love real estate,” Russell told The Wall Street Journal in an interview published on Tuesday, March 17. “Our Old Snowmass home is my favorite. It’s a large, beautiful log-cabin lodge on a ranch that we moved into a little over 40 years ago.

He continued at the time, “Goldie and I share a passion for log homes. I never got that out of my system, starting with the one in Maine.”

Now that Russell primarily travels between his properties in Los Angeles and Colorado — much like his character in his new TV show The Madison — he told Men’s Health in a recent interview that he finds a certain level of peacefulness in the Colorado mountains.

“I moved to Colorado when I was 26 years old,” the actor told the publication on March 14. “At a certain point, you find yourself asking whether you’re going to live the life you want to live, or if you’re just going to talk about it. And I decided to make the move and live the life I wanted to live.”

Season 1 of Taylor Sheridan’s hit series The Madison concluded on Saturday, March 21. The show follows the Clyburn family after they leave New York City and “relocate to the Madison River valley of southwest Montana for emotional recovery following a tragedy that shattered the family.”

Russell stars alongside fellow cast members Michelle Pfeiffer, Patrick J. Adams, Elle Chapman, Matthew Fox, Beau Gerret, Alaina Pollack, Amiah Miller, Ben Schnetzer, Kevin Zegers, Rebecca Spence and Danielle Vasinova.
