Kate Hudson isn’t afraid to flaunt her swimsuit ready body by the pool, on the beach or on camera.
The actress frequently shows off her figure in two-piece bikinis while soaking up some rays year-round at her home in Los Angeles, or whenever she travels abroad.
“I do love a good bikini,” Hudson told InStyle during her July 2014 cover story. “And I think it’s because I just love the sun so much.”
The How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days actress added: “I love summer, it’s my favorite season. I love being by the water!”
Hudson explained that she often tops off her bikini look with “cute” chapeaux for sun protection and style.
“Accessorizing is always fun to me,” she told the outlet. “And during summer when I’m outside a lot or at the beach, my face tends to get easily pigmented even if I’m wearing a ton of sunblock — so I throw on a cute hat!”
One of her hottest moments came in April 2025, when she wowed in a plunging white swimsuit featuring open sides as she lounged poolside. The singer styled the piece with orange sunglasses and a straw hat adorned with a hot pink scarf wrapped around the brim.
