Kate Hudson asks photographers to stay away from her son

Kate Hudson accepts that being constantly shadowed by the paparazzi comes with the job but it annoys her when the photographers turned their attention to her son Ryder.

She said recently: “The only thing that bugs me is my son. When people are taking pictures of your kid, he doesn’t know what he wants. He is two-and-a-half years old.”

“He doesn’t choose that, and I think that’s unfair. I try not to focus on it too much for his sake because that could be dangerous.”

Being the daughter of Goldie Hawn, Kate grew up in the spotlight herself but remembers that step-father Kurt Russell, who Kate considers her father, wouldn’t let the photographers near them: “If we were with my dad he was like ‘not with my kids’. Nobody would ever take a picture, ever.”

“The only time I remember [they were photographed] was at Heathrow Airport. It scared me because it was so weird and foreign to me.”
