Macaulay Culkin’s rep has denied that the former child star has health problems after Entertainment Tonight published two photos of the Home Alone star in which he looks extremely emaciated.
Culkin was in New York when he was spotted by the ET team. In one of the photos, he is seen posing with a fan and in the other has a pair of sunglasses in one hand and a Red Bull in the other.
After media speculation over Culkin’s gaunt photos, his rep issued a statement saying “Macaulay Culkin is in perfectly good health.” Culkin lives in Queens, New York.
Culkin, now 31, has not had an easy life in spite of the success of the Home Alone franchise. In 1998, he “divorced” his parents over allegations that they were not handling his finances properly. He married Rachel Miner, his childhood sweetheart, only to divorce her in 2002. He then got into a relationship with That 70s Show star Mila Kunis, which ended in 2010.
He was arrested for marijuana possession and having two other controlled substances in 2004 in Oklahoma for which he got three suspended prison terms. His sister, Dakota died in a car accident in 2008. Culkin also testified at Michael Jackson’s child molestation case in which he insisted nothing happened between them.
