Is Brenda Song married?

Brenda Song is not legally married at this point, but she has been in a long-standing relationship with her fiancé, actor Macaulay Culkin.

The pair reportedly met briefly in 2014, although their relationship did not begin until several years later. They grew closer in 2017 while working together on the comedy-drama Changeland, which was filmed in Thailand.

When Culkin and Song got engaged

After keeping their relationship largely private for years, Culkin proposed to Song in January 2022, and the couple became engaged. Song previously opened up about their unexpected romance during an interview with Access Hollywood.

“I think that’s what was so beautiful. I always say he’s like my unicorn. I wasn’t going to settle for anything, but he is exactly what I was hoping to look for,” she said at the time.

Song has also spoken about the close bond she shares with Culkin, describing him as someone she can rely on beyond their romantic relationship.

“He understands my work, we can talk about football, we talk about basketball, we can cook together. I think I just really lucked out,” she added.

The couple share two kids

The couple have also started a family together and are parents to two sons.

Their first child, Dakota, was born in April 2021 and was named after Culkin’s late sister. They later welcomed their second son, Carson, in 2022.
