Macaulay Culkin still needs a little help when he’s home alone.
After all, the Home Alone actor didn’t know how to do laundry well until his adult years, according to fiancée Brenda Song.
“Mac is a very unique human” she shared on March 13 episode of The Jennifer Hudson Show. “Being the most famous child actor in the world, he lived and grew up in hotels. He had just never really done laundry.”
Brenda said she was “shooketh” when she found out, quipping, “It’s funny, teaching him how to do laundry.”
But that’s not all. The Suite Life of Zack & Cody alum added that Macaulay, with whom she shares sons Dakota, 3, and Carson, 2, “still doesn’t know how to drive.”
“I took him out to drive in our neighborhood—I was terrified,” she joked. “This 44-year-old man driving for the first time? I was like, ‘Nope!'”
Macaulay and Brenda, 36, first met in 2014, when she was working with their mutual friend Seth Green on the short-lived comedy Dads.
“The show that I was on with our friend got canceled,” Brenda explained during a March 10 appearance on The Drew Barrymore Show, “and he was trying to be funny, being like, ‘You know, the show wasn’t that great anyway.'”
She recalled of Macaulay, “I did not like him at all.”
But fate brought them back together in 2017 for Seth’s directorial debut Changeland. This time around, Macaulay left a better impression on Brenda and they “started hanging out” during the six-week shoot in Thailand.
“I thought he was gonna be my BFF, and then I was like, ‘Oh wait, I kinda have a crush on him,'” Brenda explained. “I thought I was gonna have my first fling—and that fling has turned into almost eight years and two kids.”
