Goldie Hawn insists daughter Kate Hudson and her fiancé Matt Bellamy will tie the knot "when they're ready."

The couple announced their engagement in April 2011, shortly after Kate fell pregnant with their nine-month-old son Bingham, but are not making any preparations to say "I do" just yet. Asked about the delay, Goldie, 66, said, "There's no prepping for a wedding. She's very happy. She's a great mom, the baby's beautiful, and they'll get married when they're ready."

In the mean time, Goldie is enjoying being grandmother to "beautiful" Bingham and his big brother Ryder, eight, from Kate's previous marriage to Black Crowes musician Chris Robinson, and has a few pearls of wisdom to offer them when the time comes.

"[I hope to teach them] to become as resilient as they can. We all get knocked down, but the measure of the man is how fast you get up. And I think that's what I'd really like to instil in the kids. We're all going to fail, we're all going to mess up, but it's not as much about that as it is learning from your mistakes and getting up real fast," she told US Weekly.
