Kate Hudson, rapturous in the throes of romance, has not forgotten her girlfriends.

Hudson, who has lately opened up about her relationship with Yankees baseballer Alex Rodriguez, said: “I don’t know what I’d do without my girlfriends. Let’s be honest, I don’t care how much you’re in love with any man, you need to have your girlfriends to talk to. Without them, we’re alone. I don’t want to talk to a man about some of the things I feel.”

Hudson was speaking to Harper’s Bazaar ahead of next month’s cover story.
