The actor and his sister have a strained relationship with their biological father and affectionately refer to their mom's long-term partner Kurt Russell as 'Pa'.

However, Oliver confirmed in 2018 that he had exchanged "some texts" with his father. And in a 2016 interview with Howard Stern, Kate said of her dad: "I really do recognise whatever those issues are, it's just something that he has to live with, and that must be painful for him, so I forgive him."

Oliver is incredibly close to his famous mother Goldie Hawn

The popular actor is a father himself, sharing sons Wilder, Bohdi and daughter Rio with wife Erinn. Oliver loves nothing more than being a dad, but admitted recently to HELLO! that he was done having children as he is more than content with his family unit.
