Goldie Hawn says she’s reliant on increased security after a string of robberies left her terrified.
The "Death Becomes Her" actress shared her story on a Wednesday episode of Kelly Ripa’s Sirius XM podcast “Let's Talk Off Camera,” explaining that she and her partner Kurt Russell were robbed twice in a four-month span.
In the first incident, the pair, who starred opposite each other in 1987’s “Overboard,” were out to dinner as thieves ransacked their Los Angeles home.
"I walked into my closet and I just lost it," the actress shared with Ripa. "They had broken in from the balcony to our bedroom, our closets . . . they completely knocked down my door, which is a safe door, so they're very, very sophisticated, and they got a lot of my goodies.”
Hawn, mother of Kate Hudson, said she thought a second robbery was unlikely. Los Angeles saw just over 40,000 burglaries over 2023 in its 1.3 million homes, that category of crime down slightly from the previous year.
“The odds are that's not gonna happen again,” Hawn said, before sharing that mere months later, a second intruder entered the house.
"I hear this big thump upstairs, and I was alone. Kurt wasn't there and I went, 'What the hell was that?'" she told Ripa. "Was that a sonic boom? Did somebody jump somewhere? And as it turned out, the next day, we discovered that they were trying to get in my bedroom while I was in the house."
Hawn, 78, says she doesn’t plan on staying alone any time soon, and told Ripa that she is now “never without a guard.”
"LA is terrible," she said, suggesting that the couple may be looking to relocate.
