He narrated last year’s Emmys after party and how he made snide jokes about Charton saying she was willing to give him a third child provided he won the award.
During his narrative, he brought up how his wife incentivized his Oscar-winning performance by saying she would give him another child if he won an Oscar.
“We’re walking through a parking lot after the show and she goes, ‘Oh God, I did say that,’” Culkin shared. “And I said, ‘I guess I owe you a third kid.’ She turned to me and I said, ‘Really, I want four.’ She turned to me – I – swear to God, this happened there’s just over a year ago – ‘I will give you four when you win an Oscar.’”
He said that during the speech, while looking at his wife in the audience, he extended his love towards her, and tenderly said, “No pressure,” but “but let’s get cracking on those kids, what do’ya say?”
During the story her husband told, Charton did feel amused and nodded as if to agree, however she also gasped, partly surprised and partly pleased.
Kieran Culkin’s family: I bet you want to discover his wife and children.
Kieran Culkin and Jazz Charton, who got married in 2012 and met at a pub in New York City now have two kids, Kinsey Sioux and Wilder Wolfe.
Thanks to his role in HBO's Succession, Culkin has consistently increased his bank account over the years. But his estimated net worth of $5 million has not changed his modest living condition. For ten years, the 42-year old actor lived in a cramped one-bedroom apartment alongside his family in New York City.
In 2013, while on a road trip across America, the couple got married in Iowa. “Seven years ago, we fell in love with Iowa,” Charton shared in an instagram post some years after their wedding. “We said ‘I do’ in the rain with three strangers,” Hello! reported.
Born In London, Charton was raised by her “Coco” Charton, a model and actress, and moved to New York City in 2010 for a short-term job but later decided to settle in the US for good.
The actor shared that prior to welcoming their son, he and his then pregnant wife used to spend the nights on a mattress inside their living room since they had to give their bedroom to their daughter.
Now, the couple lives in a spacious three-bedroom house in New York City. The entire family now has ample living space.
Their broader living space would be advantageous as Culkin is keen on growing his family.
