Two former child stars just had a baby together and Twitter is going wild!
Los Angeles, California - Macaulay Culkin and Brenda Song, famous for their respective roles as Kevin McCallister in Home Alone and London Tipton in the Suite Life of Zack and Cody, have welcomed their first child together!
Say what? Yes, you’ve read that right: our iconic childhood heroes have become parents.
Apparently, the Hollywood stars locked eyes with each other in Thailand a few years ago while filming the 2019 flick Changeland.
What came next sounds like something straight out of a typical Hollywood screenplay. Soon after the sparks flew, Culkin was home alone no more and moved into a charming house together with his new love, according to Esquire.
Now, they wear matching pajamas and share a Shiba Inu, three cats, a parrot and several fish.
Fast-forward to April 5 and the couple also welcomed their first child together: a baby boy named Dakota Song Culkin!
Dakota was reportedly named after Culkin's sister, who died in a car accident in 2008 at the age of 29.
"We are overjoyed," Culkin and Song said in a joint statement.
For many, this all seemed like it came out of nowhere and Twitter was overflowing with hilarious reactions ranging from disbelief and excitement to confusion.

Culkin (40) told Esquire in a February cover story that the couple were "practicing" a lot when asked about parenthood.
"We're figuring it out, making the timing work. Because nothing turns you on more than when your lady comes into the room and says, 'Honey, I'm ovulating'."
Seems like all that practice paid off...
