In a heartwarming turn of events, actor Kieran Culkin and his wife, Jazz Charlton, have reportedly expanded their family, fulfilling a lighthearted promise made on the prestigious Oscars stage. But was it all just a joke, or a genuine desire for more children?
Kieran Culkin, known for his role in the hit series Succession, has welcomed his third child with Jazz Charlton, according to sources. This news comes almost a year after he boldly expressed his wish for another baby during his acceptance speech at the Oscars. His co-star, Sarah Snook, confirmed the arrival of the new addition at the premiere of All Her Fault, gushing about the adorable family to Access Hollywood.
The couple kept the baby's details under wraps, only announcing the pregnancy at the Waiting For Godot premiere, where Jazz proudly showcased her baby bump. They are already parents to a six-year-old daughter, Kinsey, and a four-year-old son, Wilder. But Kieran's desire for a larger family was made public in a surprising way.
During his Emmy Award acceptance speech in 2024, Kieran caught his wife off guard by declaring his wish for more children. He thanked her for their existing children and then playfully pressured her for more. And at the Oscars a year later, he reminded her of their 'baby pact'. But here's where it gets controversial—was it all just a joke?
Kieran recalled his previous statement, saying he had publicly asked for a third child because of a deal they had made. And when he won the Best Supporting Actor Oscar for A Real Pain, he couldn't resist bringing it up again. But the twist? Jazz had only agreed because she didn't think he would win!
Kieran's humorous revelation at the Oscars had the audience in stitches. He claimed he hadn't mentioned the pact since, but now he was ready to make good on it. And in a playful challenge to his wife, he said, 'Let's get cracking on those kids.'
Jazz, taking it all in stride, later shared photos from the Oscars on Instagram, humorously referencing their 'baby pact'. She joked that while it might seem foolish, it had been a great motivator for Kieran's success. But was it all just a bit of fun, or a genuine desire for a larger family?
The couple's love story began in 2012 at a New York bar, where Kieran's unconventional pickup line involved insulting Jazz's name. Despite this, or perhaps because of it, they eloped a year later during a spontaneous road trip ceremony. And now, their family continues to grow, leaving fans wondering if there's more to this 'baby pact' than meets the eye.
