Kate Hudson has opened up about two sporting ex-boyfriends, Lance Armstrong and Alex Rodriguez, and their problems over drug doping.

The 35-year-old actress, who is engaged to Muse frontman Matthew Bellamy, claims she was "as shocked as anyone" when the shamed cyclist Armstrong admitted using performance- enhancing drugs throughout his career, and baseball player Rodriguez was recently accused of using banned substances while playing for the New York Yankees.

"People have a right to (feel betrayed). Lance and Alex are phenomenal athletes who have made some bad choices and let a lot of people down," Hudson told InStyle magazine. She dated Armstrong for a few months in 2008 and Rodriguez for almost a year in 2009.
