Kurt Russell is part of a very famous acting dynasty, but not everyone in his household decided to join the family business.
The 75-year-old has been in a relationship with Goldie Hawn for over 40 years, and together they have a blended family that includes two-time Oscar-nominee Kate Hudson and her TV star brother Oliver Hudson, whom Goldie shares with ex-husband Bill Hudson, and actor Wyatt Russell, whom the actress and Kurt welcomed in 1986.
Before his relationship with Goldie, Kurt had a son, Boston Russell, 46, with his ex-wife, Season Hubley, with whom he was married from 1979 to 1983.
However, despite a production assistant credit on his dad's 1996 film Executive Decision, Boston has largely stayed out of the spotlight and chose a completely different career path from his famous family.
In a new interview, Kurt admitted that Boston is "the only one who has never cared to get into the business," and revealed that instead, he became a therapist.
"The joke, of course, is the rest of the family are actors, you’ve got to have a therapist in the family," Kurt told People while promoting his TV show, Monarch: Legacy of Monsters. "So we got that covered," he added.

Kurt met Goldie on the set of the 1968 film The One and Only, Genuine, Original Family Band, and he left a lasting impression on his future partner.

"And then years later we met up again, and I liked him, and I remembered that I liked him very much when I first met him. But we both said we would never go out with another actor, so it just shows you never can tell."

"He was so good-looking, but he had no pretense about him. I could tell right away he wasn't a womanizer," Goldie said of Kurt.
Goldie previously revealed why her romance with Kurt had stood the test of time, despite them never tying the knot.

"Do we have laughs together? Do we share certain things? You don't have to share everything. We have a lot of expectations, I think, around relationships, but you have to like the person. That's very important."
