Kieran Culkin and Jazz Charton are marking a significant milestone as they celebrate 13 years of marriage. The couple tied the knot during a spontaneous road trip in Iowa back in 2013, and Charton took to Instagram on June 22 to commemorate the occasion with a nostalgic photo from their wedding day.

In the Instagram post, Charton, aged 38, shared a heartwarming image showcasing the pair standing in front of a quaint white church with a vibrant red door. She wore an elegant silk dress, while Culkin, 43, gazed affectionately at her. In her message accompanying the photograph, she wrote simply but meaningfully, “Lucky 13 💍,” reflecting both their enduring love and their preference for a low-key life away from the limelight.
Culkin and Charton first crossed paths in 2012 at a bar, and since then, they have maintained a relatively private relationship. Their decision to elope during a road trip was an unconventional choice, but it seems to have worked wonderfully for the couple. Since their marriage, they have welcomed three children, with their eldest being daughter Kinsey Sioux, born on September 13, 2019. Their son, Wilder Wolf, arrived on August 17, 2021, and the couple later revealed that their third child was born in the fall of 2025, shortly after they shared news of Charton’s pregnancy.
Charton has often shared snippets of their wedding journey on social media, reminiscing about that fateful day. In a 2017 Instagram post, she recounted how they seized the moment to marry during a rainstorm, saying, “#tbt to taking time out of our road trip to get married by the side of the road in Iowa during a storm 4 years ago today. Still the best pit stop I’ve ever made.”
In 2020, she continued to reflect on their unique wedding experience, describing it as part of a trip intended to last six weeks but which stretched into three and a half months. She remarked on how they fell in love with Iowa, met a girl named Kinsey who helped them secure a marriage licence, and said “I do” in the rain with only three strangers as witnesses.
Kieran Culkin, known for his role in the hit series “Succession,” has recently opened up about the couple’s journey towards expanding their family. During the 2025 Academy Awards, Culkin quipped about the pact he and Charton made early on to have more children if he ever won an Oscar, unaware that Charton was already pregnant with their third child at the time. “At the time I was on stage asking for a fourth, she was actually pregnant with the third. We found out two weeks before,” he explained in an interview.
Culkin humorously remarked that he has since reminded Charton about the agreement, as he expresses a desire for a fourth child. However, he adores their new addition and reflects on the joys of parenthood, stating, “No. 3, he’s beautiful and perfect. So, if it’s the last one, we did great.”
The couple’s story is a touching reminder of how love can evolve and grow over time, with the small moments and spontaneous decisions often becoming the most cherished memories. Their prioritisation of a private family life appears to have fostered a deep bond, allowing them to navigate both parenthood and their careers while staying grounded.
As they celebrate their 13th anniversary, the joyful couple continues to embrace the adventures that life brings, reminding us all that meaningful connections often come from the most unexpected places.
