On August 17, 2021, they gave birth to their son, Wilder Wolf. When Culkin won best actor in a drama series for his role in Succession at the 2024 Golden Globes, he took the opportunity to thank Charton for “putting up with this and all the … that comes with it.” The audience gave him a kiss from his wife after the camera panned to her.

Conclusion
I didn’t think about it until we did it. It’s absolutely fantastic – even better than my wildest dreams! The intensity of the challenge is irrelevant. Ending relationships or jobs that are too difficult is the same as ending anything else. It’s over, let’s move on. The intensity of the challenge is irrelevant. It’s always a fulfilling and wonderful experience.
