Mila Kunis knows a thing or two about dating a megastar – and we're not just talking about husband Ashton Kutcher. The Bad Moms star opened up about her former flame Macaulay Culkin during an appearance on Sirius XM's The Howard Stern Show this week.

Mila, who started dating the Home Alone actor when she was 18, admitted that Macaulay's fame made dating difficult. "He was huge," the 32-year-old said. "You couldn't walk down the street with him."

She added: "He always had this weird attraction, like fans just screamed when they saw him! They didn't know how to react. It wasn't like a normal response to a celebrity. Fans responded in a very abnormal way to him."

Mila and Macaulay were together for nearly a decade, but never made plans to walk down the aisle. She was asked by her host whether that meant she wasn't in love with him. "Honestly, who knows?" she replied.

"But I know since before we started dating, since I was like 16, I told my dad, 'Just so you know, I don't believe in marriage.' And my dad's like, 'What did I just create?' And then at one point I was like, 'I'll get married when gay people are allowed to marry.' I was like, 'This is not for me.'"

Mila has since changed her tune, and is now married to her former That '70s Show co-star Ashton. The Black Swan actress admitted that both had reservations about jumping into a romance given their previous long-term relationships – Mila's with Macaulay and Ashton's with ex-wife Demi Moore.

"We both were in agreement. 'Yeah, this is just fun. Just fun.' Shook hands on it. Just fun," Mila said. "Three months later ... I was like, 'This isn't fun anymore!'"

She admitted, "We'd literally attempt to go see other people, and then that night we'd be like, 'Hey! What are you up to? Wanna come over? It ended up being from just having fun to genuinely wanting."

Fast-forward to present day and the pair are blissfully happy together. The couple, who welcomed their daughter Wyatt Isabelle in 2014, secretly tied the knot in July 2015 and are currently expecting their second child together.
