Macaulay Culkin’s path from child star to troubled figure is marked by tragedy. Despite early fame, his family faced financial strain, living in cramped quarters. Culkin’s relationship with his father was marred by mistreatment and control, worsened by a bitter custody battle
He took legal action to protect his wealth amidst fame’s pressures, retiring early due to paparazzi harassment and public scrutiny. His friendship with Michael Jackson brought solace but also controversy amidst abuse allegations.
After his “retirement,” Culkin began reveling in living the life of a typical teenager, including going to high school at the Professional Children’s School, which caters to child actors and other kids involved in creative careers. Even though he’d stopped making movies and retreated from Hollywood, his fame remained undiminished, something he realized when he dyed his hair crazy colors. “I did purple and I did pink and I did orange, and they made such a big deal out of it — it was on the cover of People!” he told New York Magazine.
Macaulay Culkin’s older sister, Dakota, was hit by a car while walking in Los Angeles. Just a year older than the “Home Alone” star, she died shortly after the accident. Speaking with Esquire more than a decade later, Culkin reflected on the tragic loss. “She passed away 11 years ago tomorrow,” he said. “Tonight,” he added, as in 11 years to the day, “was the last time I talked to her, and she passed away overnight, kinda thing.”
His helthy was to bad in each year
Pray for him
