Kate Hudson Offers Reese Witherspoon Her Help After Actress Struggles With Homeschooling: ‘I Got You’
This is what besties are for! Kate Hudson adorably offered her help when her friend Reese Witherspoon complained about homeschooling her kids on Instagram.
The Fool’s Gold star left her comment on a hilarious meme Reese, 44, shared of her crying. “Me trying to figure out second grade math,” the Legally Blonde star wrote on the clip with the caption, “Special shoutout to the parents dealing with algebra.”
“I did it last year … I got you,” Kate, 41, shared on Instagram on Wednesday, September 3, with the hashtag “Come Over.”
Like Kate, Reese has been homeschooling her children amid the coronavirus pandemic and she said it’s been anything but easy. “Home school is going great,” she joked alongside a couple of photos of her 7-year-old son, Tennessee, hanging upside down on the furniture in her house.
Then, in May, Reese shared another cute photo of her trying to work while Tennessee‘s feet were hanging in front of her face. “Really nailing this WFH/homeschooling life. #CanICallYouBack?” she captioned the snaps on Instagram.
The mom of three to kids, Tennessee, Deacon, 16, and Ava, 20, has been having a hard time balancing her work and family life. On May 11, she appeared on CBS This Morning and said “sometimes” feels “totally overwhelmed” as a working mom. “I’ll lay on the floor and cry or I’ll sit in my car and cry,” the Big Little Lies actress said, and she’s been feeling this way for a while now.
“I’m just trying to hold on, trying to make it through. My older kids help with the little one. It’s nice to have a big family … My mom worked, and I think it’s good for kids to see women working and being successful,” she told InStyle in 2016. “I think it’s going to make them hard workers because they see that I don’t get much sleep. But I love what I do. I want them to grow up with passion. This is the one life you get, and you have to live it to the very end.”
