As for Hudson, if you must know, he is gay and uses the pronouns He/Him. His mother herself confirmed her son’s sexual orientation to US Weekly. At the time, attending the Family Equality Council Impact Awards was especially meaningful to her because the nonprofit advocates for LGBTQ families.

Hudson appeared in a drag show in February 2022 and it was a hit. And before that, we saw him on RuPaul’s show with his mother and twin sister. He spoke fondly of his mother and sister. Of course, RuPaul introduced him as an up-and-coming Hollywood makeup artist and aspiring YouTube star. However, Hudson later corrected the host that YouTube wasn’t his calling and that he was more interested in Broadway. Not to be missed, he also told RuPaul that he actually started doing makeup inspired by his drag shows.
Most recently, in June 2022, he made his mother proud when he graduated from Interlochen Arts Academy.
