Kate Hudson has been often seen watching from the stands as her boyfriend, Alex Rodriguez, plays for the Yankees. She’s attended games with her mother, Goldie Hawn and stepfather, Kurt Russell, so it’s safe to assume that A-Rod has met Kate’s family. She’s also been seen posing happily in the player’s wives’ section. According to In Touch, Kate is so serious about Rodriguez that she’s pressuring him to have a baby. Kate has son Ryder, 5, from her marriage to Chris Robinson and Alex has two children: Natasha, 4, and Ella, 16 months, with his ex-wife Cynthia. This story comes from In Touch, so it’s just as likely to be wishful thinking on their part. I could see Kate asking for kids, though. She moves fast and they’ve been together three months already.
Kate Hudson has only been dating New York Yankees baseball star Alex Rodriguez for a few months, but she’s already hoping to start a family with him. The actress has a son — Ryder, 5 — with ex-husband Chris Robinson, but a friend of hers explains: “She just turned 30 and she’s ready to have her second child. She wants Ryder to have a sibling, so she brought up the idea to Alex and told him that they would make a beautiful baby together, and that she would assume all financial responsibility.” But the pal adds that A-Rod, who has daughters Natasha, 4, and Ella, 16 months, with ex-wife Cynthia, is just not ready for more kids right now. That hasn’t stopped him from getting closer to Kate. Last week, the couple stayed at a Hyatt in Toronto together when Alex was there for a game. “Kate loves Toronto and has friends in town,” explains an insider, but it doesn’t sound like she spent much time apart from her boyfriend. “Kate and Alex had a major romantic dinner date at the Bymark — a very high-end restaurant,” explains the insider. “After dinner they went straight back to their suite at the Hyatt, and she didn’t surface until 2 the following afternoon!” Kate has even introduced Alex to her mom, Goldie Hawn, and Goldie’s partner, Kurt Russell, who accompanied her to Yankee Stadium on August 8 to watch the Yankees play the Boston Red Sox. “They cheered when Alex was at bat and he smiled at them when he was on third base,” says an onlooker. Kate has become a fixture at Alex’s games, and she was recently joined by mom Goldie and Goldie’s partner, Kurt. “Alex was flirting with Kate” in the stands, says one baseball fan.

Kate seems so kind to me, but just totally clueless when it comes to guys. It’s like she’s needs her friends to tell her to play hard to get. If this is true, and that’s a big if, I would tell her to skip a few games, go out on the town with friends, and spend some time at home – not calling A-Rod. Let the guy have his freedom and come back when he’s ready. Rodriguez is only 34 and he’s just coming out of a divorce. By most accounts the guy was a big player both when he was married and in the wake of his separation. You don’t pin those kind of guys down by pressuring them to have kids and being available all the time.
Whatever Kate’s doing, Yankee fans credit her with improving A-Rod’s game. Kate and Alex were photographed kissing in late July at a Yankees picnic. The NY Daily News reports that since that incident A-Rod’s batting average has improved 25 points. I have no idea if that’s a large amount or not, but from the big deal they’re making out of it, it sounds like it is.
The Yankee slugger’s latest girlfriend, movie star cutie Kate Hudson, loves to cheer him on from the stands – and he’s been on top of his game ever since they went public.
His batting average since their first public smooch on July 25 is running almost 25 points higher than his season average. And he’s socked two homers in the last three games – including a two-run blast that ended the marathon Friday night/Saturday morning game against the Red Sox.
“It’s gotta help him out a little,” said baseball fan Mike Grassi, 20, from Long Island. “I would definitely play a lot better if I had her as my girlfriend. Now he’s got a beautiful girl and he’s hitting home runs again.”
“He’s got a hot girl on his side,” agreed Erik Vesper, 22, a big Yankees backer from South Plainfield, N.J. “It’s making up for all of her terrible movies.”
The bubbly blond Hudson, 30, has been rooting for Alex Rodriguez all summer, laughing and waving from a front row seat at Yankee Stadium.
The News caught up with Hudson last night at Los Dados restaurant in the Meatpacking District and she declined comment – but smiled – when asked if she’s helped A-Rod’s game.
The two made their relationship official at the team’s family picnic day, cuddling and smooching for the cameras. Ever since, he’s been batting .283 – hitting two homers over the weekend and striking out less. He was 1 for 3 in last night’s game and his season average is .259.
Rodriguez, 33, told reporters Saturday he feels much “freer” and “liberated” this season, after admitting in February to using steroids in the past.
Over the weekend, Hudson brought mom Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell to root for her new boyfriend. Meeting the parents is a nice-guy turn for A-Rod, who was linked to Madonna and a Vegas stripper before divorcing his wife Cynthia last year.
Hudson also went with the Yankees on their last two road trips, cheering on her man in Tampa Bay and Toronto.

I love that guy’s quote, “It’s making up for all of her terrible movies.” Most of Hudson’s films are chick flicks and that guy was probably subjected to a few. Sports fans are so superstitious, aren’t they? If the love of a good woman is working for Alex, good for him. I would still tell Kate to back up and start thinking with her head instead of her heart for a little while.
He’s good looking and all, but he’s a cheater. A big cheater. Run, girl. Run!
I don’t like her. She is gross to me.
She was wonderful in Almost Famous but since then has slid downhill in a string of forgettable films. Her love life is a mish-mash of one guy after the other with no rhyme or reason.
Plus, A-Rod? Seriously? This guy will settle down with one woman when hell freezes over. This is not the guy to “get serious” with unless you want your heart broken, chopped into little pieces and stomped on.
A-Rod is a player and I think Kate is too, so they do have that in common.
Kurt and Goldie met Lance and several of the other “boyfriends” too, so I don’t think it means much frankly.
They deserve each other and perhaps by being together, STD’s will slow down on both coasts.
A-Rod may love the Hollywood attention, but guaranteed, he’d sleep with those three girls in the last photo in a New York minute.
If Kate even considers getting knocked up by him, she’s nuts.
Yikes. Kate Hudson is cute and makes fun movies….but she is like the hollywood bicycle. Man, that girl gets around!
Why is it ok for a guy to date random hot actress’ but when a woman does it shes gross? If she wants to be a sexual being & live her life w/ whomever she chooses GOOD FOR HER!! Its always other woman the first to call another woman a whore. Its clearly not a 1 night stand so whats the problem? Should people not date just in case it doesnt last a year? Just be with someone…see where it goes? WTF?! People are sooo judgemental!
I dont like her. She has S.K.A.N.K written allover her.
If A-Rod cheats on her – boo hoo – she cheated on Owen Wilson. The wheel always turns.
wild child is just another notch on his bat.
to dude…
seems to me that most posters are saying that A-Rod is a “big cheater”, a “player”, that he’s riddled with STDs, and that he’d eagerly sleep with the girls pictured with Hudson.
that’s hardly letting him off the hook while calling her a whore. they’re both whores, and it seems that people recognize that.
Praise St. Angie!: Are you a fly on the wall when either Kate or AROD are having sex? Im pretty sure your not, so unless you know for a fact how many people they have been with you have no right be cast your judgement on anyone. A whore according to who? YOU?
dude, calm down. and read for comprehension.
your claim was that people are calling her a whore and letting him off the hook.
and, if you actually read what people have posted above, you’d see that your claim is wrong.
every poster above contains an opinion that A-Rod is just as much a “serial-dater” as she is.
frankly, “whore” is the wrong word. neither of them get paid for having sex.
“slut” works better for me.
I think that Kate has demonstrated and said she has slept around. Look if we are going to try and figure out everyone’s definition of what makes a whore, we will be fighting all day.
I think her reputatuion stems from her behavior towards the men she has dated, and how she has gone directly from one man to another and even dated her ex’s best buddy. I don’t say she is a whore, they at least get paid. I say both she and ARoid are class A sluts. I have also stated that there is nothing wrong with being a slut, and if you are one, be like Kate and Sienna Miller and be the best ones you can be.
Heck, I was probably a slut once upon a time.
Why does she want Madonna’s sloppy seconds? She better check and make sure A-hole Rod is paying all his child support, that coupled with his alimony is gonna make old A-Rod’s paycheck a lot slimmer. Kate better have some money stashed away from her mediocre movies.
She strikes me as one of those insecure women that just can’t be without someone. She has to always have a boyfriend and the realtionships are always hot and heavy right off the bat. I just get the feeling that she runs around with a wedding dress in her trunk and a preacher on call just in case.
