- Actor Kieran Culkin and wife Jazz Charton are expecting baby number 3.
- Kieran stated in his 2025 Academy Awards speech that she had agreed to have four children if he won, which he did for best supporting actor.
Apparently Kieran Culkin wasn’t kidding in his oscar acceptance speech. The actor, known for portraying Roman Roy in “Succession” and his Oscar-winning performance in “A Real Pain,” gleefully stated that his wife, Jazz Charton, had promised to consider having another baby if he won an Oscar. Well, he did and now she is nine months pregnant!
Jazz announced the pregnancy in her instagram post, saying “Saw Keanu Reeves on broadway and now I’m 9 months pregnant ♥️ this is very on brand for me. I made a deal with this baby to let me make it to this before labor, not sure what it wants in return but I’m CLEARLY a woman of my word.”
Kieran and Jazz met at a New York city bar in 2012 and married in 2013. They have two children, a girl Kinsey Sioux, born in 2019, and a boy Wilder Wolf, born in 2021. If the new baby is a girl, may we suggest Emma – or Emmy for short? And if it’s a boy, well Oscar of course!
