Hollywood icon Goldie Hawn, 79, turned heads at the New York City premiere of Happy Gilmore 2 on July 21, stepping out with her son Oliver Hudson, his wife Erinn, and their three children—Wilder, Bodhi, and Rio. Dressed in a vibrant printed gown, Hawn’s appearance alone was buzzworthy, but it was her rare red carpet moment with 12-year-old granddaughter Rio that truly stole the spotlight. Fans and photographers alike were struck by the strong resemblance between the two generations.

Photos of Goldie and Rio quickly made waves online, showing the pair beaming with arms around each other. With their long blonde hair and shared radiant smiles, it was clear the family resemblance was impossible to ignore. Rio, donning a soft cream dress with golden and pink floral accents, exuded confidence as she stood beside her grandmother. The images prompted a wave of admiration across social media, with users praising their “matching beauty” and commenting on the close bond they appeared to share.

The comparisons didn’t stop with Goldie. Many observers pointed out that Rio also bears a striking resemblance to her famous aunt, Kate Hudson. Comments poured in from fans noting that Rio was “a blend of Goldie and Kate,” while others couldn’t decide which relative she resembled more. This sparked broader discussion about the family’s Hollywood genetics, with some marveling at how physical traits have so clearly carried through the generations.

Online reactions turned especially enthusiastic as fans marveled at the generational similarities. One user wrote, “Goldie and Kate don’t look that much alike, but Goldie and Rio? Total twins!” Others echoed this thought, calling Rio the “perfect mix” of her famous lineage. The fascination with how Rio seemed to mirror her grandmother and aunt alike highlighted not just their shared looks, but the enduring public interest in the Hawn-Hudson legacy.

Though this particular event marked a headline-making moment, Rio is no stranger to the spotlight. Having grown up attending red carpet events alongside her family, she’s evolved from a toddler trailing her father to a poised young girl now capturing media attention in her own right. Her latest appearance wasn’t just a celebration of a new film—it was a reminder of the lasting bond, beauty, and star power of one of Hollywood’s most beloved families.
