Hawn married director Gus Trikonis in 1969 before their marriage ended in divorce in 1976.

She then had a six-year marriage with musician Bill Hudson, with whom she shares two children, Kate Hudson and Oliver Hudson.

‘It’s always ugly,’ she continued.

‘Somebody actually has to take a look and say, “How many divorces actually are fun? How many divorces actually don’t cost money? How many divorces actually make you hate the person more than you did before? How many divorces have hurt children?”‘

Wallace would not back down.

‘But [you and Russell have] been together 40 years, you’re not going to get divorced,’ Wallace pressed.

‘I like the idea that I can wake up in the morning and make decisions every day if I want to be here.

‘I mean relationships are hard,’ she continued. ‘They’re not always easy. There’s all kinds of hurdles we go through. There’s things that we believe in, things we don’t believe in, we agree on.
