<\/p>\nBehind the scenes, Hawn and her actor boyfriend Kurt Russell have been together for four decades (they celebrated their 40th anniversary on Valentine\u2019s Day this year), and they\u2019ve remained just as committed to one another as they were back in the very beginning.<\/p>\n
Given the various allures and distractions life in the spotlight can bring, it\u2019s a wonder that neither ever seems to have put a foot wrong.<\/p>\n
What makes Kurt and Goldie\u2019s relationship so very special \u2013 and, we might add, so real in the eyes of the public \u2013 is their steadfast dedication to each other. They don\u2019t wield their romance as a tool to heighten their celebrity presence, nor have they ever been embroiled in scandals or publicity stunts to hijack the locomotive PR train.<\/p>\n

Instead, theirs is a partnership that appears to be a throw-back to a by-gone era, an inspiring and very agreeable union that reminds us all what true love is really about.<\/p>\n
As well as sharing adoration for one another, they also defend each other when scrutinized by the media. In fact, Russell defended Hawn when she was recently called cruel names by internet trolls, and when some pretty unflattering paparazzi photos of her emerged online.<\/p>\n
One photo in particular shows her in Aspen, Colorado, rocking ugg boots, quilted pants, and a black turtleneck. At 77, she looks fantastic, but most people couldn\u2019t help but comment on how old she now looks \u2013 cruelly saying she\u2019s \u201cgone too far\u201d and no longer looks like herself.<\/p>\n
Hawn has fought against agism in Hollywood by simply ignoring the comments, embracing getting older and not letting the teasing faze her. Russell is also incredibly supportive of his partner, with Hawn telling People magazine that Russell told her before a dinner date: \u201cYou\u2019re unbelievable. I cannot believe how [beautiful] you look.\u201d<\/p>\n

After 40 years, the couple is still as in love as they were at the start, and their love story just goes to show the power of love. Despite facing harsh public opinions about their appearances, the couple doesn\u2019t let this affect them.<\/p>\n
Hawn especially continues to exude grace and confidence as she embraces the natural process of aging.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
