Catherine O’Hara expresses amazement at Macaulay Culkin’s age and adulthood.
Per People, O’Hara shared that at 43, he’s older than she was when she played his mother in the 1990 classic ‘Home Alone.’
Besides that, Catherine O’Hara, or Culkin’s on-screen mother, reflects on their enduring bond.
At Culkin’s Hollywood Walk of Fame ceremony on December 1, 2023, O’Hara gave a heartfelt speech. Commending his contributions to the beloved film.
Unaware Culkin would be standing beside her during the speech, she expressed pride in his accomplishments. Joking about leaving him “home alone not once but twice.”
Macaulay Culkin now age 35, engaged to Brenda Song, and father of two, received O’Hara’s admiration for his happiness and family life.
“So it was much more personal than I knew it would be.
I really wanted to honor him because he worked so hard as a child. You don’t appreciate that.
It’s hard to appreciate that a child is really working. But he really made it look natural.”
