The Father of These Hollywood Stars Once Disowned Them, Saying They Were ‘Dead’ to Him

Years of public scrutiny surround a Hollywood family’s rift involving a once-celebrated father and his children. After a painful estrangement, whispers of reconciliation have emerged. Can the wounds of the past truly heal?

The father, a musician and actor, enjoyed fame in the ’70s but faced personal turmoil as tensions rose with his children amid the glitz. What began as a passionate romance with their mother in 1975 quickly soured, leading to their divorce in 1981. While initially devoted to his children, his absence grew, exacerbated by their mother’s rising fame and new relationship.

By 2015, the situation exploded when the eldest child posted a scathing Father’s Day message on Instagram: “Happy Abandonment Day.” The father reacted with heartbreak, claiming betrayal and mourning the loss of his children. He blamed their mother for fostering a narrative that painted him as an absent parent, accusing her of “parental alienation” and insisting he tried to maintain a relationship.

As the siblings found success in Hollywood, the estrangement became public. The daughter honored her mother’s partner on Father’s Day, deepening their father’s feelings of rejection. He declared that he no longer recognized them as his children, claiming he had “set them free.”

Despite the pain, Bill Hudson often reflected on the love he once had for his children, cherishing memories of their early years together. He expressed sadness over their separation, particularly following the Father’s Day posts that struck him deeply.

Kate and Oliver Hudson have voiced their complex feelings about their father. Kate has noted that while the estrangement is difficult, she harbors no resentment and has expressed a desire for his happiness. Oliver initially reacted with sarcasm but has since indicated an openness to reconnecting.

In May 2024, Bill confirmed that steps toward reconciliation were underway, stating, “We are warming up.” The family appears to be mending their fractured relationship through small gestures of understanding, signaling hope for a fresh start after years of hurt.

Michael Bublé breaks down in tears over son Noah’s health issues

Loved by millions, Canadian-born singer Michael Bublé reached worldwide fame back in 2005 with his album It’s Time and his 2007 album Call Me Irresponsible, which reached number one on the Canadian Albums Chart, the UK Albums Chart, the US Billboard 200, and several others.

Over the years, the Grammy Award winner has sold over 75 million records worldwide, but despite the enormous fame he enjoys, he has stayed grounded.

Michael is married to Argentine actress Luisana Lopilato with whom he has four children.

The couple’s son Noah, who will be 9 this year, has gone through an ordeal when he was diagnosed with liver cancer at the age of just 3.

At the time the singer heard the devastating news, he was promoting his ninth studio album Nobody But Me. It was shortly before performing at The One Show on BBC One in London.

“Three minutes before I came on, my wife texted and told me something was wrong,” he said during an interview with U.K.’s Evening Standard in July 2018, and added, “I just died.”

Luckily, Noah is now in remission, but Bublé described the ordeal as “the worst possible thing that you could hear as a parent, and as maybe a human being.”

“I much rather would have it have been me. Many times I wish that it had been,” the musician said and added that the experience made them even stronger as a family and gave them a new outlook at life.

On Noah’s eight birthday, Bublé shared an emotional post on Instagram, writing, “Today my hero turns 8. I’ve never met anyone as brave… I’ve never known anyone as kind or as good-hearted… and I’ll never truly be able to express how proud I am, or how deep and profound Mommy’s and my love is for you. You’ve blessed our lives in every way.”

Along with the touching message, the musician shared two photos of him and Noah over the years.

Bublé said that the prayers they received by fans, friends, and strangers helped them in their battle against the cancer as a family.
