Home Alone Star, Macaulay Culkin And Girlfriend, Brenda Song Welcome First Child – A Baby Boy

Home Alone star, Macaulay Culkin and former Disney Channel star, Brenda Song have welcomed their first child together.

Song gave birth to a baby boy on Monday, April 5 at 1:10 p.m. in Los Angeles, the couple told Esquire.

The former Disney Channel star never announced her pregnancy, choosing instead to keep the experience private. She is healthy post-birth, according to Esquire.

The couple named their son, Dakota Song Culkin in honor of Culkin’s late sister Dakota, who passed away in 2008.

“We’re overjoyed”, the new parents told the publication.

Last February, Culkin spoke to Esquire last year about his hopes of having a family with Song, who he has dated for the last few years, saying they were trying for a baby.

Culkin confessed;

We practice a lot. We’re figuring it out, making the timing work. Because nothing turns you on more than when your lady comes into the room and says, ‘Honey, I’m ovulating.’

Culkin – who is best known for starring in the Home Alone franchise as a child – is eager to have children soon, as he’s noticing his body is changing as he gets older, and wants to start a family whilst he’s still young.

He added;

I got an ulcer or two I gotta deal with. I don’t poop like I used to. My body’s like, ‘Oh, is this what the beginnings of dying feel like?’

The two met on the set of Changeland, which they both starred in. Filming for that movie began in June 2017 and it was released in 2019.

Song spoke glowingly about Culkin in the profile, telling the magazine;

People don’t realise how incredibly kind and loyal and sweet and smart he is. Truly what makes Mack so special is that he is so unapologetically Mack. He knows who he is, and he’s 100 percent okay with that. And that to me is an incredibly sexy quality. He’s worked really hard to be the person he is.

Congratulations to the couple.
