"It was insane, actually," the Reluctant
Fundamentalist star told Jay Leno on The Tonight Show Wednesday of royal baby
fever in the British capital. "You can't help but follow it since it's on
every news channel like that's all you saw ...that was the longest labor on
news. It literally was full coverage."
The Hollywood-raised star (Goldie Hawn is her mom, and Kurt
Russell is her de-facto stepfather) hasn't met the Duchess of Cambridge or her
husband Prince William -- but there's an unexpected connection!
"Prince
William and Prince Harry actually stayed at our house in Colorado when they were
kids.,"
Hudson explained. "I remember we were all in LA and they were
staying with their mom [Princess Diana] at the time…and we get this phone call
at the house."
She continued of the royal-encounter-by-phone: "And the
phone rang, my dad [Kurt Russell] answers it, gets on the phone…sure enough, I
think it was Prince William calling my dad to ask if he could use the ATVs, the
four wheeler things."
After Russell, now 62, acquiesced, "[he] said,
'now that's a really well raised boy.' That was pretty cool...that's as close
as I got!"
Hudson can also perhaps relate to the new mom Middleton, 31:
Many royal watchers had expected the Duchess to give birth to a girl when the
arrival was, in fact, a boy. The star had a similar experience while pregnant
with Bingham over two years ago.
"There was not a question in my mind that it was
a girl... because it was completely different, totally different pregnancy -- I
carried different, he felt different [than Ryder], it was just a girl,"
she said. "I felt like this was a she." Muse frontman Bellamy, 35 --
and older brother Ryder -- both knew otherwise.
"He knew…the whole time,
Ryder knew the whole time it was a boy, and I just ignored them."
