Hey there, friends! So, you know how life gets when birthdays roll around? Well, Kate Hudson's 40th birthday is just around the corner, and she’s already got her plans set. In a recent chat with Entertainment Tonight, the ever-charming Kate, who’s currently 39, hinted that her Friday, April 19 celebration would be a blast—fun, intimate, and, most importantly, private. Yep, this one’s all about keeping things close to the chest.

Now, Kate’s not the type to shy away from a good time, but she’s clearly in the mood for something more low-key this time. She joked with the ET crew while in the car, saying, “We were just talking about that. [It will be] fun.” But here’s the kicker—she also mentioned that she’s “not gonna know about any of it.” Translation? No extravagant parties like her pal Jennifer Aniston. Instead, it sounds like Kate might opt for a cozy gathering with her family at home, where the focus will be on those who matter most.

But here’s the thing—Kate’s not one to leave anyone out, especially when it comes to her kids. She might even extend the invite to her exes, Chris Robinson and Matt Bellamy. These two dads are pretty important in her life, and considering her positive co-parenting relationship with them, it makes sense that they’d be part of the celebration. After all, they’re the fathers of her 15-year-old son Ryder Robinson and her 7-year-old son Bingham Hawn Bellamy, respectively.

Co-Parenting: Kate’s Approach to Family Harmony

Kate’s always been upfront about the importance of maintaining a healthy relationship with her exes, even if things didn’t work out romantically. In a candid moment on Divorce Sucks! with Laura Wasser, she shared, “When you get divorced, you’re still in a relationship. It’s just a different kind of relationship.” Life after divorce isn’t always easy, but Kate acknowledges that there will be ups and downs, good days and bad. It’s all about navigating it together.

She’s all about empowering her kids to decide how they want to relate to their fathers. As she puts it, “Kids are not only incredibly intelligent, but eventually they can make their mind up themselves.” Her philosophy is rooted in the belief that children should come to their own conclusions about their relationships with their parents. “They will see with their own eyes whatever needs to be seen and they need to come to that on their own terms. It’s not our place to tell them how to feel about the other parents. I think that’s so important.”

So, if Kate does decide to throw a bash for her 40th, we’re all hoping she shares the fun with us on Instagram. Whether it’s a quiet evening at home or a surprise gathering with family and friends, we’re sure it’ll be a celebration that reflects Kate’s warm and inviting spirit. Cheers to Kate Hudson and her special milestone!
