KATE Hudson and Goldie Hawn have gathered their loved ones together for a holiday photo shoot – but fans have been left puzzled by the pictures.
Kate and Goldie were joined by their brood to model Kim Kardashian’s Skims cozy Christmas pyjamas but there was one vital person missing.

In the photos, Kate is joined by her fiancé Danny Fujikawa and her two sons Ryder and Bingham and her daughter Rani.
Goldie’s son Oliver Hudson is also in the fun snaps, along with his wife Erinn and their three children Wilder, Bodhi and Rio.
They have also shot a video campaign and can all be seen tucking into Christmas party food and larking around together.
But fans have found themselves scratching their heads after noticing that Kurt Russell – Goldie’s partner of more than 40 years – is absent.
Kurt and Goldie are one of the longest standing couple’s in showbiz after getting together romantically in 1983.
The new family photos and video ad have been shared on the official Skims Instagram account.
The caption reads: “The holidays were made for matching in SKIMS – just ask @GoldieHawn, @KateHudson, @theOliverHudson and their families.”
But one fan asked: “We’re just here to see Kurt.”
Another added: “But where’s Kurt Russell?”
And a third chimed in: “Kurt Russell or nothing.”
Goldie and Kurt first met in 1968 while shooting the Disney movie-musical The One and Only, Genuine, Original Family Band.
Aged 21 at the time, Goldie felt that the then 16-year-old actor was “much too young” for her to date.
By the time they met again 17 years later, sparks flew and Goldie felt the age difference between her and Kurt was no longer a problem.
The Emmy Award-nominated couple reconnected during Kurt’s audition for the movie Swing Shift and they went on their first date soon after.
When they got together, Goldie was already mom to Kate and Oliver from her relationship with their dad Bill Hudson.
Kurt, meanwhile, has a son called Boston from his marriage to Season Hubley.
The couple went on to welcome son Wyatt three years after they began dating but they have never married.

Goldie, 78, recently revealed the reason she and Kurt, 73, have never tied the knot because they are both keen to remain “independent”.
In an interview with CNN, Goldie said: “When it doesn’t work out, it ends up being big business.
“It’s always ugly. Somebody actually has to take a look and say, ‘How many divorces actually are fun?’
“‘How many divorces actually don’t cost money? How many divorces actually make you hate the person more than you did before?’
“‘How many divorces have hurt children?’ I mean relationships are hard. They’re not always easy.
“There’s all kinds of hurdles we go through. There’s things that we believe in, things we don’t believe in, we agree on.”
She added: “So I think ultimately staying independent with independent thinking is important, so you can hold on to yourself, and you can actually have that feeling.
“I like the idea that I can wake up in the morning and make decisions every day if I want to be here.
“Why should we be? Isn’t that a better question?”
