Kurt Russell & Goldie Hawn celebrates their relationship milestone. Goldie believes it couldn’t ever have occurred if they were married.

When Goldie Hawn met Kurt Russell in 1966 while recording The All in all, Certifiable, Unique Family Band, they enjoyed one another. Yet, they never got truly close and, positively, couldn’t envision that they would continue and spend right around forty years together.

At that point, 21-year-old Hawn found 16-year-old Russell attractive, yet excessively youthful for her, so she never took action, and he didn’t take action by the same token.
