Goldie won’t deny it

WITH rumours that Kate Hudson is indeed dating Brad Pitt continuing to escalate – her mother Goldie Hawn has added further fuel to the fire by refusing to confirm or deny the mounting speculation.

According to reports in the US, Goldie had a rather interesting reaction when asked about the rumours that her actress daughter is involved in a blossoming romance with Brad, 53.

On leaving an LA restaurant with long-term partner Kurt Russell, the 71-year-old, inset, was asked by a reporter: “You must be thrilled that Kate’s dating Brad Pitt? Are you ready to have Brad as a son-in-law?”

Goldie, pictured, as reported by X17 Online, then laughed, clapped her hands, but said absolutely nothing. Kate, 37, was first romantically linked to Brad just months after his split from estranged wife, actress Angelina Jolie in September.

Last November, Australian magazine Woman’s Day claimed in an article: “Kate is Brad’s mystery woman. They’ve been extremely close over the past few weeks with several secret meet-ups.” The Allied actor has recently returned to the spotlight after keeping a low profile since his acrimonious split from Angelina, attending premieres, parties and even a surprise appearance at last week’s Golden Globes. According to X17 sources, Kate was overheard gushing about her trysts with the Oscar-winner at a Globes after-party and that she and the actor had met up on numerous occasions, even suggesting that the Almost Famous star was seen leaving the bash in the same vehicle that had earlier taken Brad home.
