Goldie Hawn’s son reveals emotional reaction to her Oscars speech that sparked health fears

Goldie Hawn’s son has revealed that he ‘cried’ at Andrew Garfield’s tribute to her during the Oscars this past Sunday.

The 79-year-old Hollywood icon was joined by Andrew onstage that evening to present the Academy Award for best animated short.

They instantly went viral for their touching interactions onstage, especially when Andrew shared how much ‘joy’ his late mother took from Goldie’s work, bringing the Overboard star to tears.

At one point, Goldie was unable to read her lines off the teleprompter, quipping that she was ‘completely blind’ because of ‘cataracts.’

‘Okay, I’ve got you,’ Andrew said sweetly, before revealing that the Latvian movie Flow had landed the trophy for best animated short.

Now Goldie’s son Oliver Hudson, 48, has shared his emotional reaction to his mother’s night at the Academy Awards.

I’m still not sure where I stand. She hasn’t responded to my texts so…. @goldiehawn,’ concluded Oliver, whom Goldie had with her ex-husband Bill Hudson.

Goldie jumped into the comments, hilariously replying: ‘I’m sorry I didn’t answer your texts honey, I was talking to Andrew!!!’ 

Oliver and his movie star sister Kate Hudson were raised by Goldie and her longtime love Kurt Russell, whom they refer to as ‘Pa.’

Over the course of their more than four-decade relationship, Goldie and Kurt have also welcomed a now 38-year-old son called Wyatt Russell. 

Andrew was lauded for the tribute he paid Goldie onstage at the Oscars, particularly when he brought up his mother Linda, who died of cancer in 2019.

‘Can I tell you something? There’s someone, there’s a person who gave my mother during her life the most joy, the most comfort, and tonight, I feel very lucky, because I get to thank that person from the bottom of my heart,’ he said.

‘That person is Goldie Hawn. You’ve given us movies full of joy. You’ve lifted our spirits and you’ve made us feel it all was right with the world, over and over again.’ 

Goldie was left fighting back tears, visibly moved by genuine emotion as she said: ‘Thank you so much, that really touches me.’  

A source has since told DailyMail.cm that Goldie now harbors regrets over the fact that she went public with her health issues onstage.

‘Goldie is embarrᴀssed that the focus of her Oscar night was her vision issues, it is not something she wanted everyone talking about,’ the insider disclosed, adding that the Rowan & Martin’s Laugh-In star ‘was just trying to be funny.’
