Macaulay Culkin and Brenda Song are one of our favourite celebrity couples. The pair have been an item since 2017 and in recent years they've also expanded their family and welcomed two sons.
Both actors, who reportedly got engaged in 2022, have been in the spotlight for a long time. Macaulay is, of course, famous for his role in Home Alone and Brenda's career launched on the Disney Channel in the Suite Life with Zack and Cody.
When it comes to their family life and their two young boys, however, they prefer to keep things low-key and private.

This meant we saw Macaulay and Brenda's two adorable sons for the first time – and they look so much like their famous parents!

Brenda and Macaulay's first son was born in April 2021. The couple decided to name their firstborn after the Home Alone actor's late sister who died in a car accident in 2008.
After welcoming Dakota to the world, Brenda opened up to E! News in February 2022 about how her priorities completely shifted once she became a mom.
"I never thought that I could really put my career in the backseat. But at the end of the day, if I had to stop doing what I'm doing to be a better mom, I would do it without blinking an eye because my son is the most important thing and I just want to be the best mom for him."

Less than two years later in early 2023, Macaulay and Brenda became parents again when they welcomed little Carson to the world.
The couple didn't make a big announcement when he was born, but the birth was confirmed when Macaulay's famous brother, Kieran Culkin, spoke about it on the red carpet of the Succession premiere in May 2023.
The Golden Globe and Emmy-winning actor, known and adored for his role as Roman Roy in the hit HBO show, said: "I haven't met [baby] No. 2 yet, and they haven't met [our baby] No. 2 yet either. We just haven't been able to figure that out."

Speaking of Kieran, the actor and his wife, Jazz Charton, welcomed their first child, a daughter named Kinsey Sioux, in 2019.
This photo was shared in 2019 on Macaulay's Instagram, so it's possible he's holding his baby niece.
The snap was shared before Macaulay and Brenda welcomed Dakota, but this was undoubtedly good practice!

And it's not just her fiancé who has nieces and nephews, Brenda shared this adorable photo of her holding her baby niece back in 2020.

"So proud and happy for you @timmystr0ng @mamaraerae love you guys!! #proudauntie."
