She might even find time to plan her wedding to Muse rocker Matt Bellamy.
Hudson said: "Eventually we will get married. I don't know what, when, where or how. We've got a 19-month-old baby, a nine-year-old son, he's touring, I'm working..."
Other stars at the Elle Style Awards included a heavily pregnant Peaches Geldof, former Bond girl Rosamund Pike, Bafta winner Juno Temple, Laura Carmichael from Downton Abbey and Elizabeth Olsen.
The stars enjoyed a performance by Les Miserables star Samantha Barks and sipped champagne and Cointreau cocktails.
Radio 1 DJ Nick Grimshaw hosted the awards.
He defended the drop in ratings since he took over the breakfast show from Chris Moyles.
He said: "I thought they were good, my bosses were really happy.
"We lost like 40,000 and like 250,000 new young people tuned in and my remit was to get kids listening, and that's what's happened. So as long as my bosses are happy and I'm not going to get fired then that's alright."
