Goldie Hawn has recently remembered her late father, musician Edward Rutledge Hawn during the latest episode of Armchair Expert podcast.

Earlier this week, Goldie shared words of wisdom she received from her late dad before his death in 1982 at aged 73.

The Oscar winner revealed she was more of a “daddy's girl growing up,” stating, “He's always my Daddy.”

“That's the first love we have in our life,” said the 78-year-old.

Reflecting on their father-daughter bond, Goldie mentioned, “I was madly, when I was little, in love with my father. Now, the other side of it is that Daddy and I were best friends.”

“He was a musician. The last thing he said to me before he died, he said, 'When are you going to direct, Goldie?' He was an advocate,” she stated, who directed the 1997 TV movie Hope.

While talking about her father, Goldie recalled, “I was around 35, 36, and he called me and said, 'I want you to remember this: What you have done in your 36 years is what most people get in a lifetime.' He said, 'I'm so proud of you.' And that meant the world to me.”

“There's a lot of awards you get, and they're wonderful, but these are memories. These are things that shape you,” she added.
