Overview
- Erinn Bartlett posted an emotional Instagram tribute in late August saying her 19‑year‑old son Wilder had moved into college and that the family shed “lots of tears.”
- Photos in the post and reporting show Oliver Hudson and Bartlett helping Wilder and his roommate set up the dorm with matching duvets, fairy lights and a rug, and documenting the move‑in process.
- Multiple outlets note a #GoBuffs hashtag in Bartlett’s post that points to the University of Colorado Boulder, but the family has not explicitly confirmed Wilder’s enrollment.
- Wilder made his feature‑film acting debut in 2025 in Netflix’s A Merry Little Ex‑Mas alongside his father, a moment Oliver has publicly said moved him to tears.
- The move marks a common parental milestone for the Hudson family and continues the household’s ties to Colorado, while leaving Wilder’s course of study and future plans unannounced.
