Kate Hudson took a nostalgic trip down memory lane during a lively segment on Watch What Happens Live on Wednesday night (July 17). The 45-year-old Bride Wars actress participated in a game of “Plead the Fifth” with host Andy Cohen, 56, where she opened up about her brief romance with Nick Jonas.
The game, known for its probing questions, led Andy to broach the topic of Kate’s past relationship with Nick Jonas. “In 2015, 2016, there were countless rumors about you dating Nick Jonas, which you skirted around, including on this very show,” Andy began.
“Looking back on it now, how would you characterize that relationship?” he asked, leaving Kate to reflect on that period in her life.
With a laugh that hinted at a mix of fondness and embarrassment, Kate responded, “A moment? A moment.” She elaborated, “Lovely, fun, kind. He’s like an old man in a young man’s body, and we love him.”
For those who may have forgotten, Kate and Nick, now 31, were the subject of intense dating rumors back in 2016 after being seen on a series of romantic outings. Despite the public’s curiosity and speculation, neither Kate nor Nick explicitly confirmed their relationship at the time. However, the rumors were all but confirmed when Kate’s mom, the legendary Goldie Hawn, weighed in on the brief fling in 2017.
Goldie had a relaxed and supportive take on the matter, saying, “Let me tell you something, as long as the kids are having fun I don’t care, [Nick]‘s a very nice guy, he’s a good person.”
Kate’s candidness about her “moment” with Nick Jonas adds another layer to her relatable and charming persona, making her appearance on Watch What Happens Live a delightful treat for fans and viewers alike.
