After that Academy Award on-stage negotiation over welcoming more children into their family, all anyone can talk about lately has been Kieran Culkin and his relationship with his wife, Jazz Charton. From a chance meeting in a bar in which Culkin let her know how stupid he thought her name was (yes, that really happened) to sharing two kids together, this couple has been going strong since 2012. Here, read all about Kieran Culkin and his relationship with his wife, Jazz.

Culkin charmed his wife at a New York City bar back in the early 2000s while she was working at an ad agency in the music department. Enamored by her, he approached, pointing out her English accent and asking her name. “She said, ‘Jazz.’ I said, ‘J-A-Z-Z, like the music?’ And she said, ‘Yeah.’ And I said, ‘Well, that’s f—g stupid.'” Though a certainly crass approach, Jazz wasn’t phased by his bluntness, especially when he asked if he could be her boyfriend when she confirmed that the man she was with was not, as he told iNews.

“11 years ago today I left London for NYC for what was supposed to be a 3 month trip…,” Charton wrote in the caption of an Instagram post back in 2021. “2 babies deep now so I guess I’m staying.”
