Macaulay Culkin and Brenda Song enjoy Disneyland day in matching Christmas jumpers with kids

Macaulay Culkin and Brenda Song were photographed enjoying a day at Disneyland on Friday, wearing matching Christmas jumpers as they pushed their two children, Dakota and Carson, in a double pram. The outing highlights the couple’s ongoing family-focused trips as they navigate public appearances with their children.

For the outing, Culkin wore a black cap with an embroidered papa, paired with a white T-shirt and jeans, while Song wore a Christmas jumper and a Minnie Mouse inspired black hat. The family was seen riding Dumbo and appeared to be enjoying the park together.

The couple have been together since 2017 and first met in 2014. They began dating after filming Changeland in Thailand. In public remarks about their romance, Culkin has described the long arc of finding love, and Song has said the timing was right and that their relationship would not have happened any other way.

Changeland co-star Seth Green introduced them for the project, and a friend recalled that Brenda initially was not looking for love. She grew closer to Culkin during the shoot, and Culkin later shared that he gave Brenda some of his journals to read so she could see the real person behind the armor. Brenda has said she saw an interesting, sensitive, and artistic side in him that he does not always show.

Both have acknowledged past heartbreaks and chose to keep expectations low as they built a life together. They returned to the United States after filming wrapped, and the relationship has since become a long-term partnership, including their role as parents to Dakota and Carson.
