“Soon to rise, soon to fade”, Macaulay Culkin drowned his youth in fun with banned substances, he was even rumored to have died from drug shock.

Macaulay Culkin – Home Alone star celebrated his 40th birthday on August 26. After many ups and downs during nearly 30 years of fame, Macaulay Culkin is said to have a happier and more peaceful life than in recent years.

The current simple life of a once famous child star is the result of a long struggle with fame, money, and years of debauchery with drugs and alcohol.

Became famous in Hollywood since he was 10 years old

Macaulay Culkin was born in 1980 in New York into a family with an artistic tradition, whose father is Christopher Culkin – a Broadway actor. Macaulay is the third child in a family of 7 siblings.

Before Macaulay Culkin became famous, his large family had to live hard in a small apartment with only two bedrooms. In 1995, with his excellent transformation in the role of Kevin McCallister – a boy accidentally left at home by his family on Christmas Eve, Macaulay Culkin suddenly became the idol of millions of children.

The success of Home Alone also helped the 10-year-old boy become the first child star with a million-dollar salary for his role as Thomas in My Girl in 1991.

From 1990-1994 was Macaulay Culkin’s golden time. He continuously made his mark in many other film works such as The Good Son (1993), The Nutcracker (1993), Getting Evan with Dad (1994), Richie Rich (1995) …

Possessing a stepping stone full of roses, Macaulay’s later years were not smooth. At the age of 15, Macaulay Culkin’s life turned 180 degrees with countless changes.

In 1994, Macaulay’s parents announced their separation after 20 years of marriage. The actor’s mother accused his father of being an “alcoholic, abusive and adulterous” husband.

In 1995, Macaulay’s parents divorced, and the famous child star became a “lucrative prey” for his parents to compete to adopt him for the purpose of managing his huge assets. Finally, according to the judgment, Macaulay Culkin returned to live with his father.

However, his life with his father was not harmonious or peaceful. Macaulay once called the police to arrest his father when he asked him to clean his room. Also during puberty, Macaulay began to engage in quick love affairs, spending the night in hotels with older girlfriends….

The failures of his youth caused Macaulay to neglect his acting career. From a rising child star, he suddenly announced that he wanted to live “a normal life” and disappeared from Hollywood .

Youth falls and falls downhill because of drugs and addiction

In 1998, when he was just 18 years old, Macaulay announced his marriage to actress Rachel Miner. However, after only 2 years of living together, the couple divorced because of disagreements in their views on life.\ While Rachel wants them both to spend time taking care of their family, Macaulay wants to return to her acting career.

In 2002, he dated “black swan” Mila Kunis. The couple was together for 8 years, until 2010.

While dating Mila Kunis, Macaulay was constantly involved in scandals about using banned substances. Instead of restarting his acting career, in 2004, he was caught by the police with 17.3g of marijuana, 16.5mg of Alprazolam (a sedative that causes central nervous system depression) and 32mg of Clonazepam ( sedatives have the potential to cause addiction).

Accordingly, the actor had to pay a fine of 4,000 USD (nearly 93 million VND) and go to a drug treatment center, receiving a 3-year suspended sentence.

In 2012, National Enquirer accused the actor of spending 6,000 USD (about 139 million VND) per month on addictive drugs.

Macaulay Culkin also squandered his fortune on fun, trying his hand at being a DJ and hanging out at nightclubs in New York.

Reporters often recorded images of Macaulay Culkin looking like a homeless person, with long, unmaintained hair and beard, and old, dirty clothes.

Macaulay’s indulgent life led to rumors that in 2014, he died from drug overdose. The actor then had to post photos on social networks to “prove” he was still alive.

Age 40 is positive and optimistic

Overcoming many difficulties in the past, Macaulay in recent years actively detoxed to return to the small screen.

In July 2017, he continued to become the center of attention when he publicly dated former Disney star Brenda Song. Since dating Brenda Song, Macaulay has been commented to be increasingly rosy and healthy, no longer looking as skinny and emaciated as before.

Sharing with Esquire, the once famous actor said that the two had even considered getting married to build a small family.

“We’re looking at it and choosing the right time, because there’s nothing better than one day when your woman walks into the room and says, ‘Honey, I’m pregnant,'” he shared.

Not only does he have a close relationship with his current girlfriend, Macaulay Culkin is also very close with his goddaughter – Paris Jackson – the youngest daughter of the late star Michael Jackson.

Currently, Macaulay actively appears in entertainment shows. The actor’s personal page also regularly updates pictures of happy, healthy everyday life.

Through years of ups and downs, the current Macaulay Culkin cannot regain the glory of the past. However, fans hope he can still maintain his current comfortable and peaceful life.

Macaulay Culkin diligently takes magazine photos and participates in TV shows at the age of 40.

In recent years, he has lived a more positive and healthier life than during his youth.
