Rani Rose is Hudson and Fujikawa’s first child together, but Hudson also has two sons, 14-year-old Ryder with ex-husband and singer Chris Robinson and 7-year-old Bingham with singer Matthew Bellamy. 

Earlier this year when Hudson spoke about her third pregnancy, which caught thousands of her fans off guard, she said, “I don’t feel any differently, but I’m excited that we’re going to even out the gender ratio in the house.”

SURPRISE!!! 🤱 If you’ve wondered why I’ve been so absent on my social channels it’s because I have never been more sick! It was the most sick first trimester of all my children. Boomerangs have made me nauseous, Superzoom is an easy way to have my head in the toilet, food instagrams make me queezy and thinking too much about insta stories made me even more exhausted than I already had been. If you’ve seen me out and about smiling and pretending like everything is amazing…I was lying! BUT! I have broken through on the other end of that and rediscovering the joys of insta/snap. We have been trying to keep this pregnancy under the radar for as long as possible but I’m a poppin now! And it’s too darn challenging to hide, and frankly hiding is more exhausting then just coming out with it! My kids, Danny, myself and the entire family are crazy excited! A little girl on the way 💕
