Kieran Culkin has been married to Jazz Charton since 2013 after they first met in 2012. The couple have two children together, a daughter and a son.


The U.K. native Charton relocated to New York City from London in September 2010. She and Kieran have maintained a low profile together since they met at a bar in 2012. The pair tied the knot privately in 2013 while on a road trip in Iowa. There isn’t much information about Charton’s early life. The little information about Charton's childhood that she has made public is that she was born in London and raised by a "single mum," Corinne "Coco" Charton, a former model who is now an artist.


Kieran Culkin’s early life


Kieran Culkin was born on September 30, 1982, in the Manhattan borough of New York City. He was the fourth of seven children born to North Dakota native Patricia Brentrup and former stage actor Christopher "Kit" Culkin. He is mostly Irish but was brought up as a Catholic.


Culkin attended the St. Joseph's Church of Yorkville's Catholic school for free until the third grade because his father was a sacristan there. After that, he attended the Professional Children's School to study theater, film, and television but left early.


Culkin began acting at the age of two and was brought up as a performer. His earliest memories were sitting for headshots in Central Park after being guided there by his father's hand. His career started when his neighbour, a stage manager for the Light Opera of Manhattan, a repertory theatre, learned that the company needed some kids for a show.
