Kate Hudson glows with Rani, one, on NEW People Beautiful Issue cover


Kate Hudson glowed as she posed with her one-year-old daughter Rani for an alternate version of People’s Beautiful Issue cover.

The duo made history earlier this week by covering the issue with Kate’s mother Goldie Hawn – the first time three generations of a family have done so.

Now in the latest version of the cover, Kate, 41, beams and lifts up her voluminous floral dress to show her laughing baby crawling around between her legs.

So sweet: Kate Hudson glowed as she posed with her one-year-old daughter Rani for an alternate version of People’s Beautiful Issue cover

She posted the new cover to her Instagram page this Saturday and in her caption paid tribute to frontline workers in the coronavirus pandemic.

The cover left her ‘inspired to share some people that I have felt are exemplary and showing us the most beautiful acts of kindness, love and humanity happening in the world right now, and those working to take care of all of us.’

The Almost Famous star wrote: ‘Let’s share the love right now. I would like to start by saying every single frontline health worker is exemplary and we thank you.’

She added: ‘Share your stories in the comments below, and tag those #BeautifulPeople doing #BeautifulThings With your help I would love to hear your stories and continue sharing and highlighting new people.’

Kate posted tributes to National Institute Of Allergy And Infectious Diseases Director Dr. Anthony Fauci and National Domestic Workers Alliance director Ai-Jen Poo.

Her love also went to Delta Airlines CEO Ed Bastian who will ‘forgo his salary over the next 6 months to help support and keep his workers employed.’

Shirley Raines of the nonprofit Beauty 2 The Streetz ‘spends her Saturdays handing out supplies to the homeless on Skid Row in Los Angeles,’ while famous chef Jose Andres ‘has turned his restaurants into community kitchens’ amid the crisis.

Kate also paid homage to such people as New York daycare teacher Savannah Weir who on top of her remote classes is ‘taking care of children of essential workers’ and a Brooklyn landlord called Mario Salerno who waived 100s of tenants’ April rent.

The Beautiful Issue of People magazine has been going for 30 years but this year is the first time three generations of a family have landed the cover simultaneously.

Kate was only 17 years old the last time she fronted a magazine with Goldie – the duo shared the cover of InStyle’s August 1996 issue.

Although Kate’s biological father is musician Bill Hudson, the man she calls ‘Pa’ is Goldie’s longtime love of more than three decades, Kurt Russell.

Kate told People she currently lives right nearby Kurt and Goldie, sharing: ‘She’s down the street. We’re literally neighbors.’

She added: ‘Not to mention I want to buy the property next door to them, which is another thing I need to discuss with my therapist.’

Kate shares Rani with her beau Danny Fujikawa and has two sons – Ryder, 16, and Bingham, eight – from previous men in her life.

In the new Beautiful Issue of People Kate shared that she felt ‘so sad’ while pregnant with Ryder and asked her mother why.

‘Mom’s like: “Because the second they leave your body, they don’t belong to you anymore,”‘ Kate shared with the magazine.

She then said to Goldie herself, who was being interviewed alongside her: ‘I think that was the most powerful thing you’ve ever said to me.’

Goldie explained: ‘It’s learning to let go. I think a lot of mothers, particularly with their girls, feel helpless when you don’t think you’re needed anymore.’

The Shampoo icon continued: ‘It’s just a phase. There’s an individuation and then there’s a period of time when we come back together again.’
