Kieran Culkin’s Emmys Plea Comes True As Jazz Charton Debuts Baby Bump

Kieran Culkin’s wish for a bigger family has finally come true in the sweetest way possible.

The “Succession” star, who once turned his Emmys acceptance speech into a playful request for more kids, proudly showed off his wife Jazz Charton’s baby bump on the red carpet.

After years of joking about wanting to expand their family, the actor is now set to become a father of three, and the couple couldn’t look happier about it.

Kieran and his wife surprised fans with a heartwarming baby announcement while attending the opening night of "Waiting for Godot" on Broadway on September 28.

According to E! News, the couple, already parents to daughter Kinsey Sioux and son Wilder Wolf, lit up the red carpet with smiles as Charton’s baby bump did all the talking.

She looked radiant in a fitted beige knit dress that highlighted her growing belly, while Kieran stood proudly beside her in a striped gray sweater and black pants.

At one point, the 42-year-old gently placed his hand on his wife's stomach, leaving no doubt about the happy news.

Their sweet display was a full-circle moment for the pair, especially since Kieran has been openly teasing his wife for years about having more children.

The baby news feels extra special because fans remember Kieran Culkin’s now-iconic Emmys speech in January 2024.

While accepting the award for his role in “Succession,” the Hollywood star not only thanked Charon for being “his beautiful wife” and the mother of their two kids, but also cheekily added, “And Jazz, I want more. You said maybe, if I win.”

The playful plea earned laughter from the audience and even Charton herself, who clapped from her seat.

A year later, Kieran doubled down on his dream of a bigger family while accepting his Oscar for his role in “A Real Pain.”

He reminded his wife of her earlier promise and even revealed she had once joked he could get four kids if he ever won an Oscar.

Now, with baby number three on the way, his wish is officially coming true.

Kieran Culkin's wife took to her Instagram page on Monday to share the news of her pregnancy with her fans.

She shared several pictures from her and Kieran's appearance at the "Waiting for Godot" Broadway that showed her flaunting her baby bump.

In the post's caption, the expectant mom wrote, "Saw Keanu Reeves on Broadway and now I’m 9 months pregnant. This is very on brand for me."

Charton revealed that she made a deal with the baby in her womb to let her attend the Broadway event before her labor. She added, "Not sure want it wants in return but I'm CLEARLY a woman of my word."

The proud mom went on to share her experience about the Broadway show, noting her delight at seeing Keanu Reeves and Alex Winter doing air guitar on stage.

She concluded, "Cannot put into words how special it is (part pregnancy brain fog / part awe) go see it if you have the chance!"

While Kieran celebrates his growing family, his mother Patricia Brentrup reportedly faces a very different life in Montana.

In April, a report from the Daily Mail revealed that at 70 years old, she lives with her husband, Mart Cox, in a modest ranch-style home across from a junkyard in Billings.

Unlike her famous sons, Brentrup struggles with money and health.

Speaking to the outlet about the situation, a source shared, “They’re both 70 years old and retired. The paychecks aren’t coming in anymore. They’re having a hard time right now.”

The couple lives simply, without cell phones or the internet, alongside their dogs and horses.

According to the report, Brentrup’s condition worsened after she suffered a stroke, followed by an Alzheimer’s diagnosis that left her with only a five-minute memory span.

Sadly, caring for her became a daily challenge, one Cox mostly manages himself.

In a chat with the outlet, Cox noted that despite Kieran’s wealth, visits and calls from him were rare, leaving the couple largely on their own.

Although Kieran Culkin has praised his mom in public speeches, the story seems different at home.

Cox told the Daily Mail that the father of two had almost no contact with his mother in recent years.

The last time he visited was after Brentrup suffered severe burns in a fire on the property.

That reunion was tense, with the 70-year-old admitting, “I was talking down to him and pissed him off.”

Following that incident, Kieran reportedly never returned. “He never calls,” Cox said, adding he didn’t expect help from him.

Meanwhile, Kieran’s brother, Macaulay Culki,n provides $1,000 a month in financial support and has brought his children to Montana to visit their grandmother in recent months.

Unfortunately, Brentrup, once a single mother raising seven kids in a small New York apartment, now relies heavily on her husband and daughter for care.

Cox keeps a photo of Kieran’s Oscar win on the refrigerator to remind her of his success, since her memory fades quickly.
