Kate Hudson, at 45 years old, is this year decorating her Christmas tree all by herself. Despite this, she shows no signs of being bothered. She recently shared two posts on social media to give her fans a glimpse into her holiday preparations.

Holiday Tradition Turned Solo Mission

In a Thursday, Dec. 12, Instagram carousel, she captioned it, "Started as a family tradition, ended as a solo mission… with wine." The first photo showed her sitting in front of a fully decorated Christmas tree, beaming with a huge smile and holding a glass of wine. She was dressed in a green sweater set, completing the festive mood. Other photos revealed her grinning as she sipped from her glass and carefully placed the decor on the tree.Her brother, Oliver Hudson, commented, "I wasn’t involved with this in any way so I’m not sure what new family you’ve got going on.. I’m telling Mom." This shows the change in their holiday routine.In a TikTok uploaded on the same day, Kate explained why the event, which was once a family affair, had become a solo mission. She began the video by saying her kids "just decided they were over it." So, she had to finish decorating by herself. While getting up from a chair to hang more decorations, she said, "So, I have to finish up by myself."She then sang a remixed version of "Holly Jolly Christmas," changing the words to: "It’s a lonely, lonely Christmas / just me decorating here / Everywhere there’s usually children / but tonight it’s just me alone / sad and lonely mom." She continued, "Maybe I should have a Negroni."Calling out for her 20-year-old son, Ryder Russell Robinson, she said, "Honey? Anybody? Anybody wanna drink with me? Maybe just a little white wine, that might be nice." Ryder never appeared in the TikTok, but she finished by saying that her decorated tree named Bertha "has been good."Kate shares her oldest son with her ex-husband Chris Robinson of The Black Crowes. She is also a mom to Bingham Hawn Bellamy, 13, whom she welcomed in July 2011 with her ex-fiancé, Muse’s frontman, Matt Bellamy. The actress also shares Rani Rose Hudson Fujikawa, 6, with her now-fiancé Danny Fujikawa.Her blended family was recently featured in a SKIMS holiday campaign. On Nov. 7, she captioned the festive photos, "Finally got a family holiday card."This year, Kate's Christmas tree decorating experience is a unique one, showing the changes in her family life and her ability to embrace the solo moment with grace.
