Andrew was quick to Goldie’s aid, simply saying: “Okay, I’ve got you” before taking over the presenting duties. He also took the opportunity to express how honoured he was to be presenting alongside the Oscar winner.
While holding Goldie’s hand at the podium, the Spiderman star said: “Goldie, can I tell you something really quickly? There is a person who gave my mother during her life the most joy and comfort – and tonight, I feel very lucky because I get to thank that person from the bottom of my heart. That person is Goldie Hawn.”
