Kate Hudson Says She and Son Ryder ‘Leaned on' Brother Oliver ‘Without Me Even Having to Ask' amid Chris Robinson Divorce
Kate Hudson can always count on her brother Oliver Hudson. The two answered fan-submitted questions on the Monday, July 21, edition of the Sibling Revelry with Kate Hudson and Oliver Hudson podcast, when one listener asked them to describe a moment in their life during which they really "leaned on each other."

"For me, with you in my divorce with having Ryder and being a working mom, I felt like you really stepped up without me asking," Kate told Oliver. She and her ex-husband, Chris Robinson, were married from 2000 to 2007 and share a son, Ryder Russell Robinson, 21. "It's just that you just stepped up as Uncle Ollie and was really there for us and Ryder. I think that period of time, you really stepped up for me without me even having to ask for it," Kate continued. "In reflection, you were so stable for Ryder and myself." The Running Point star noted that two "created fun times with the kids." In addition to Ryder, Kate is also a mom to Bingham "Bing" Hawn, 14, with ex-fiancé Matt Bellamy. She shares Rani Rose Hudson Fujikawa, 6, with her now-fiancé Danny Fujikawa. For Oliver, 48, there are "micro leanings" that happen between him and his sister all the time. 'There's little things that happen. It's not these big catastrophic events where it's like, 'Here, put your head on my shoulder.' It's the little things," he said. In a June 2024 conversation with PEOPLE, Kate opened up about her blended family, expressing that they are "very connected" and are "very close." 'Love can change form. It's interesting when you have that modern family; there's so much love for all the kids," she said.

Stockton's Republic Services customers demand credit for weeks of missed pickups
The Republic Services strike officially ended on Friday and while some trash may be gone, another issue is piling up. "I got an email, 'Oh, we took $144 out of your account,'" Republic Services Customer Glen Pitts said. "I go, 'Wait a minute, three weeks, and no service, and you billed me anyway?'" Pitts is just one of the hundreds of Republic Services customers in the city of Stockton. He was shocked to see he still got charged for service that never came. "It was piling up. I had no more room for more trash. It was going to start going in bags piled in the street like everybody else," he explained. He went to Facebook, posted about his recent bill, and the comments started flooding in. "I called the company, and I said, 'What's with this? This is insult to injury,'" Pitts continued. "They said, 'Well, that's all. The billing is all set up before the strike went on.' I say, 'You can't turn it off?'" He's not alone in his concerns and frustration. "We pay for our house and this house," Republic Services Customer Renee Grafius shared. "That's about what it is and they charge us full price. It's already been paid." Grafius was also charged nearly $200 for the utility. As of Tuesday afternoon, her trash was still sitting on the sidewalk. "Garbage is just piling up," she continued. "It's going to become a health hazard pretty soon. It is what it is, but it needs to be picked up." Now, neighbors like them are demanding for a credit or some sort of compensation. The city and mayor of Stockton are also pushing for answers. During the strike, Mayor Christina Fugazi sent a strong statement to the company, saying, "Guess what Republic Services? You need to give your customers a credit and if this doesn't get settled, you won't have a contract with the city of Stockton anymore." CBS Sacramento reached out to Republic Services multiple times to find out if a credit is being considered. The company eventually sent a statement saying, "Right now, we are focused on resuming regular service and will address non-service-related concerns once that work is complete." In the meantime, customers are hoping for a solution and soon. "You've upset the people," Pitts said. "You've upset Stockton." The city of Stockton said they have been clear with Republic Services on giving customers a credit, but mentioned they have not received any promises of the company doing so.
