Hollywood blonde bombshell, mother, and grandmother Goldie Hawn is now 77, and her dashing beau Kurt Russell is 72. The happy couple was recently spotted enjoying some seaside fun on a vacation trip to Greece. Hawn sported a chic black one-piece swimsuit that showed off her legs, arms, and chest, while Russell adorned some black and white board shorts.

The iconic couple is known for their fun and carefree attitude that enables them to focus on living their lives to the fullest. Hawn, in particular, is known for her happy-go-lucky personality, which she continues to embrace fully to this day.

In that same vein, she has been especially outspoken about the fact that she is not fussed over getting older. Her attitude about aging is a notion that is considered a juxtaposition to the widely held rhetoric in society for women to constantly update their looks in order to appear younger. Hawn's view on embracing age is rooted in the undeniable fact that it is a part of life:

"Getting older is a fact of life. By living mindfully, you understand that there are many transitions in life, [and] you just have to go through them. It's wonderful to know that you're aging because that means you're still on the planet, right?"

Hawn wants people to know that the perspective with which one looks at aging is imperative to how it then shapes your view of self as you age. The "Overboard" star has made it perfectly clear on several occasions that she intends to allow her body to age naturally. On such an occasion, during an interview with Allure, Hawn revealed that she had, in fact, never even colored her hair to prevent it from graying.

She always realized that she marched to the beat of her own drum, especially being a woman in Hollywood. In another candid interview with Bazaar, Hawn disclosed she had realized that women working in Tinseltown have a shelf-life that undeniably dictates the longevity of one's career.

Of the whole ageism debate that tends to rear its ugly head from time to time regarding aging women in Hollywood, Hawn accepts the futility of fighting against the status quo. As someone who describes herself as non-combative and not quick to anger, Hawn believes getting enraged by the age rhetoric in Hollywood is redundant and somewhat pointless.

She believes that as many times as the battle has tried to be fought, there has yet to be a solution, and she very much doubts there to be one in the end. This spawns her embracing nature toward aging. Although the "Death Becomes Her" star does not care about getting older, a plethora of people feel otherwise.

As soon as pictures of the couple's Greece vacation surfaced, Twitter users took to social media to hatefully comment over the star's appearance. Many mean-spirited people wasted no time in calling Hawn ugly:

"No, not attractive. Look what happened to Goldie Hawn after she got her lips fattened. UGLY."

The hate continued to swirl around social media as more pictures got released. A couple of commentators pushed the ugly narrative further and started discussing how Hawn's appearance would give them nightmares before bed:

"Goldie Hawn's face is going to give me nightmares tonight."

How Kurt Russell Makes the Love of His Life, Goldie Hawn, Feel Beautiful in Her 70s

What haters have to say is entirely disregarded by not only Hawn herself but by her biggest fan, her partner, Russell. The happy couple has been in love and committed to each other for 40 years, and still treat their relationship as though just first fell in love.

The duo first met on the set of the film "One and Only, Genuine, Original Family Band." Russell was 15, Hawn was 22, and having joined her son on set, Russell's mom had pointed to Hawn out of a group of girls who were auditioning for the movie. His mother had predicted that Hawn would get the role, and she did.

The first time Russell saw Hawn, he was instantly drawn to her. The "Escape From New York" actor described her as unbelievably attractive:

"I thought she was awfully attractive. You couldn't miss her. She just had this energy about her."

For Hawn and Russell, their love transcends the traditional stamp of certified approval that tends to come with officiating a marriage. The lovebirds have been together for four decades now and have not tied the knot by choice.

Regardless of not being wed, the couple has created a close-knit family with the blending of their joint child, Wyatt Russell, and their children from their previous marriages - Kate and Oliver Hudson and Boston Russell. The adored couple say there is no official secret to staying together for as long as they have, and credit their unwavering desire for each other as the basis for their long-lasting love.

The happy couple remains unfazed by harsh public opinion over their appearances.

Russell is Hawn's incredibly affirmative partner. While speaking to People magazine three years ago, she shared some swooning details about how beautiful Russell makes her feel:

"The other night, we were going to go have dinner. He looks at me and goes, 'You're unbelievable.' He said, 'I cannot believe how [beautiful] you look.'"

However, fans of the couple were quick to come to their defense, showering them with outpourings of love. Many fans commented about how good the two looked as individuals and as a couple, saying they were made for each other.
