Kate Hudson has had enough from her brother's trolls.
In a video posted to TikTok Monday, the Oscar-nominated actress reacted to the negative response her brother, Oliver Hudson, received for comments he made about the "trauma" he experienced as a child from the duo's mom, actress Goldie Hawn.
“I was like, 'Who cares?' And then I really started thinking about it and I'm like, 'Well, people do care, actually,'" Hudson reflected. "It's not nice when people take something out of context or they look at something you're doing and they get all negative about it, and they poke at it, and they scrutinize it and they criticize it.”
Hudson added that she encouraged Oliver to not take his detractors' comments to heart. “These aren't people you break bread with," she said. "These aren't people who will enrich your life.”
"So, don't worry about it," Hudson continued. "And that's what I said to my brother, 'This doesn't matter. No one really cares, and those who are writing that stuff and it's loud and it feels bad and you think it feels bad, just remember what I'm saying.'"
'There was no trauma:'Oliver Hudson walks back previous comments about mom Goldie Hawn
Oliver Hudson said he felt 'unprotected' by mother Goldie Hawn
Both Kate and Oliver Hudson are famously estranged from their father Bill Hudson, who was formerly married to Hawn. On a March 18 episode of the Hudsons' "Sibling Revelry" podcast, Oliver said he reflected on his early relationships with his parents after completing a course at the Hoffman Institute. The nonprofit is known for The Hoffman Process, a weeklong psychological retreat that aims to help individuals identify behaviors that originate from childhood trauma.
"I felt unprotected at times," Oliver said. "She would be working and away, or she had new boyfriends that I didn’t really like. She would be living her life, and she was an amazing mother."
Oliver said he was surprised to discover that the bulk of his childhood “trauma" stemmed from his experiences with Hawn, who he described as his "primary caregiver." "This was my own perception as a child who didn’t have a dad and who needed her to be there, and she just wasn't sometimes,” he said.
After his comments on Hawn went viral, Oliver clarified during a March 31 episode of "Sibling Revelry" that "there was no trauma coming from my mother, the way she raised me, in any way whatsoever," adding that he was speaking from the perspective of his 5-year-old self.
"That’s what I was doing. Without her, again, I’d be nothing," Oliver said. "It’s more about sort of my child feelings in that moment, rather than me, how I feel about mom as a parent."
