Kurt Russell has shared that he and Goldie Hawn are frequently asked about marriage, as the pair have been together since 1983. The couple detailed how they once appeared to contemplate getting married during a recent and joint interview with Variety.

However, Russell confirmed to the publication that an engagement hasn’t been in the cards for him and his partner, despite how much people have asked about it. “At that time, we constantly got asked, ‘When are you going to get married? Why aren’t you married?’” he explained. “And we were like, ‘Why does anybody care about that?’ We’d asked our kids if they cared about it.
They didn’t. We didn’t. ”Hawn then chimed in to briefly praise her partner, adding: “Kurt is extraordinarily brilliant and creative and collaborative — not in the kitchen.
