The Many Loves of Kate Hudson
Over the past decade, Kate Hudson has captivated audiences with her big-screen romances, fulfilling many a female's fantasy by bedding a rock star, seducing a handsome pastor and landing shirt-hating sex symbol Matthew McConaughey (twice!).
But her dating adventures haven't all been on screen -- tabloids are rife with accounts of her high-profile relationships with the likes of Black Crowes frontman Chris Robinson, comedic genius Owen Wilson, cycling champ Lance Armstrong ... and the list goes on. Check out Moviefone's recap of Kate Hudson's many on- and off-screen loves. -- By Tom DiChiara

Dane Cook
Romances Kate: On-screen in 'My Best Friend's Girl' (2008)
Their Story: Hudson gets R-rated (yep, there's nudity and plenty of cursing) in this raunchy romantic comedy about nice guy Dustin (Jason Biggs) who recruits his womanizing best pal Tank (Cook) to take his ex-girlfriend Alexis (Hudson) on the worst date imaginable in the hopes that she'll come running straight back to him. But the joke's on Dustin when Alexis falls hook, line and sinker for Tank's bad-boy ways. Apparently, he had her at "F--- you!"

Matt LeBlanc
Romanced Kate: Off-screen
Their History: Kate was just 16 and not quite famous (or legal) when she dated LeBlanc, then on the cusp of 'Friends' stardom. Going out with a 16-year-old? Definitely sounds like something Joey Tribbiani would do.

Matt Dillon
Romances Kate: On-screen in 'You, Me and Dupree' (2006)
Their Story: Hudson and Dillon star as newlyweds whose marriage is pushed to the breaking point when Dupree (Owen Wilson), the off-the-wall best man from their wedding, moves in with them and proceeds to wreak havoc on their lives. Ironically, the film also had a big impact on the stars' lives: Shortly after opening, Hudson separated from husband Chris Robinson and began dating Wilson, much to the tabloids' delight.

Brendan Sexton III
Romanced Kate: Off-screen
Their History: Sexton, who is best know for roles in 'Welcome to the Dollhouse' and 'Empire Records,' and Hudson hooked up in 1998 while filming the indie 'Desert Blue.'

John Corbett
Romances Kate: On-screen in 'Raising Helen' (2004)
Their Story: Hudson plays Helen, a successful fashion exec who must drop-kick her freewheeling, model-dating lifestyle to raise her niece and nephew when their parents die in a car crash. Lucky for her, the cute pastor/principal (Corbett) of the kids' new school is more than happy to help.
Disney
Chris Robinson
Romanced Kate: Off-screen
Their History: Hudson met the gangly, grizzly-bearded Black Crowes frontman at a Halloween party in 1998 but then didn't see him again until May of 2000. They moved in together four days after their first date and were married on New Years Eve 2000, giving weird-looking dudes everywhere hope. The two had a son, Ryder, in 2004, but separated in 2006 amidst rumors of a Hudson-Owen Wilson affair. Their divorce was finalized in October 2007.

Luke Wilson
Romances Kate: On-screen in 'Alex & Emma' (2003)
Their Story: In her first (but not last) pairing with a Wilson brother, Hudson plays a stenographer named Emma hired by novelist Alex (Wilson), who needs to complete a book in 30 days or face the wrath of loan sharks. But Emma does more than type for Alex -- she inspires him, challenges him and helps shape the love story he is writing. Not shockingly, life soon imitates art.
Warner Bros.
Owen Wilson
Romanced Kate: Off-screen
Their History: The pair met while filming 'You, Me and Dupree' and became quite the hot item after (or was it before?) Hudson and then-hubby Robinson separated in 2006. They dated on and off until May of 2007, and briefly rekindled things after Wilson reportedly attempted suicide that July.

Heath Ledger
Romances Kate: On-screen in 'The Four Feathers' (2002)
Their Story: When Harry (Ledger) resigns his post in the British Royal Army just days before he is set to ship off to war in Sudan, his fiancee (Hudson) and three friends each give him a white feather as a sign of his cowardice. But when his pal (Wes Bentley) is taken captive, he sets off to save his friend, redeem his honor and, of course, get the girl.

kate kate kate..., what's all this BS about a seif-absorbed chick who's as flat as a piece of plywood? Get a boob-job honey.

Love Kate Hudson....but she's kinda slutty. Was crazy about her mother who had much more class.
Owen at 9:05PM on Sep 18th 2008

One can measure a woman's clinginess by how short a relationship Lance Armstrong has with her... 'nough said. ^_^

This incorrectly states that Kudson won an Oscar for Almost Famous. She was nominated, but lost to Marcia Gay Harden in Pollock.

She probably carries some disease she is dating someone new every week.
Ewwwwwww the smart ones got away...I guess that would be all of them
since she may be single this week.

You know.. guys who complain about flat girls usually have small parts as well... Kate I think you're awesome!!! Hey and think about it... flat girls can get implants but small guys are just out of luck! Small guys are the ones that say some girls sleep around yet expect other girls to wait till marriage so they don't have a chance to back out when they realize who small the guy is... hence the divorce rate in this country...

This pig needs to go away and leave us alone. No talent. Mediocre looks. No morals.

Kate you are so beautiful and you and Brinttany look like you could be sisters easily. You both have the beautiful noses that make all ladies either cute, beautiful, or Ugly. You both are turned up of course. If you ever get tired of the weirdos in looks you date then try me a little older but no facial hair and no weirdo long hair unless that is really what you like. . Good luck in all you do and I will never miss a movie of yours. Hugs---Dave

Why does she become more popular with each male conquest, giving it away And some poor lady trying to support having to sell it! gets arrested.

Does the fact that she's cute and famous delete the fact that she's a wee bit (a lot) of a 'HOHOHO? I guess she's still living in the sixties. Grow up Kate - you've got a kid now.....a kid that needs a bath and a haircut! Stop screwing around.

Kate Hudsi=on's real life & screen life are a natch. She is a 24 hour, 7 day a week WHORE.

Can you say Hoesky?? Doorknob?? Homiehopper?? It's all good, her buisness but why the media portrays her as a sweet thang and all, is beyond comprehensive. Hoe is a hoe and call it like it is, she should be able to take it, since that's what she portrays.

Personally, I think that Kate Hudson is a beautiful young woman - a really great actress and I believe that we will see more and more of her in the future. I too believe that Goldie Hawn (Kate's Mom) is one fabulous actress - regardless of what Goldie wore, or what role she was playing - her class came shining through. Kate is young and she is coming into her own - IF the public will just let her get through her growing pains. She has a lot to offer as an actress. Don't know her personally, but, I believe that her best is yet to come and she's already a star! Keep up the good work, Kate!
I would love to see the two of them together in some of these pictures. I have yet to see the mother-daughter photo that I have been hoping to see.

She's tried to defend her sluttyness in interviews by saying that she's not a
"negative person", but what a bunch of crap. She's the furthest thing from a
role model. I can't stand people like this regardless of gender. She needs some
counseling to nail down why she's so incapable of being considered "single".
I'm couldn't stand reading about her instant "back and forth" history with all
of her ex boyfriends, but I'm glad Lance dumped her and made the comments
he did about her always having'to have a guy there every second.

i don't want to judge, but if she had a guy for every year of her life i think she should be about 1000. it's too bad she can't seem to settle. maybe she keeps dating guys with a smaller thang than her boobies. she's getting used up, and that's toobad. i hope she can figure it out someday.
