Macaulay Culkin, Siblings Reject Estranged Father, Cite Abuse

Macaulay Culkin has opened up about his long-standing estrangement from his father, Christopher 'Kit' Culkin, stating that he hasn't spoken to him in nearly 30 years. On the 'Sibling Revelry' podcast, he revealed that none of his father's grandchildren want anything to do with him, emphasizing the toxic family dynamics stemming from alleged physical and mental abuse during his childhood. Culkin reflected on how he would assume he had done something wrong if his family were to sever ties, but believes his father perceives the situation differently, viewing himself as the victim. He recounted the difficult custody battle between his parents, which left a lasting impact, stating, 'I wanted nothing to do with my father.' Now, as a father himself, Culkin expresses disbelief at his father's behavior, highlighting a commitment to fostering a loving environment for his own children. His experience underscores the complexities of family relationships and the importance of breaking cycles of dysfunction.
