Culkin is known by most for his iconic and beloved role of Kevin McCallister in the 1990 film Home Alone and its follow-up Home Alone 2: Lost in New York (1992), while Brenda Song made a name for herself on Disney Channel in her starring role of London Tipton in The Suite Life of Zack & Cody and The Suite Life on Deck.

“The way she talks to him & praises him & pushes him up. She was defo the best thing to happen to him,” wrote one TikTok user. “I’m glad they found each other.

Brenda Song is light for so many people and has made people laugh and smile for years. I’m glad she’s brought joy and happiness into Macaulay’s life,” one TikTok account praised.

What have Macaulay Culkin and Brenda Song said about each other?

Though they’ve been publicly together for quite some time, the couple had remained relatively private about their relationship up until recently. Back in 2023, Culkin was honored with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, and he was graciously supported by his partner, whom he shares two kids, Dakota and Carson, with.

In his speech, he was sure to thank her for the light she’s brought to his life, saying, “I’d like to thank Brenda. You are absolutely everything. You’re my champion. You’re the only person happier for me today than I am. You’re not only the best woman I’ve ever known, you’re the best person I’ve ever known. You’ve given me just all my purpose. You’ve given me family.”

Though Culkin had his share of public struggles over the years, Song saw something in him she wasn’t quite sure he even saw in himself. “I saw this person he put out there—it was a product of this armor that he’s put on to protect himself,” she told Cosmopolitan. “But I could see that that wasn’t really who he was; I could see these glimpses of this really interesting, very sensitive, very intelligent, artistic person that he doesn’t really let show.”

In turn, Culkin saw something in her as well. “I believed in her. I mean, I believed in people before, but I believed in her down to my bone marrow. You know what I mean? I put it behind the armor though, behind that shield.” Luckily for this couple, things fell into place, and since those early days, they’ve built quite the life together. Here’s to many more years of bliss!
