Just months after his funny Oscars speech about expanding his family, his wife, Jazz Charton, has revealed that the joke might have actually come true.<\/p>\n<p>Jazz took to Instagram on September 29, 2025, to announce that she is nine months pregnant. Her post was full of her usual wit and charm as she referenced the playful \u201cdeal\u201d she had made with her husband. In her caption, she joked that she had kept her word, writing about seeing Keanu Reeves on Broadway and calling the moment \u201cvery on brand\u201d for her. She mentioned that she had promised to make it to the show before going into labor and hinted that she\u2019s been true to her word \u2014 just like she was when it came to their little family agreement.<\/p>\n<p>Fans were quick to connect her post with Kieran\u2019s Oscars speech earlier in the year, where he had joked about their \u201cdeal.\u201d The comment section was soon filled with excitement and laughter. One user wrote, \u201cSo that Oscar speech was real???\u201d while another teased, \u201cWoman of her word indeed! Congratulations!!\u201d Many fans also pointed out that Jazz might have already been pregnant when Kieran gave his big speech, calling the whole moment \u201cperfectly timed.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>During the 97th Academy Awards, Kieran had taken home the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor for <em>A Real Pain<\/em>, presented by Robert Downey Jr. In his speech, he humorously recalled a promise his wife had made: if he won an award, she would agree to have another child. He told the audience, \u201cAbout a year ago, I was on a stage like this and I very stupidly publicly said that I want a third kid from her because she said if I won the award, she would give me the kid.\u201d He then added that after the show, Jazz told him, \u201cI owe you a third kid now,\u201d and he replied, \u201cI want four.\u201d To that, she jokingly said she\u2019d give him four when he wins an Oscar \u2014 and clearly, she kept her word.<\/p>\n<p>Kieran and Jazz\u2019s love story goes back to 2012, when they met in New York City. The two tied the knot a year later in 2013 and now share two adorable children \u2014 their daughter Kinsey and son Wilder. With baby number three on the way, it looks like the Culkin family is about to grow even bigger, and fans couldn\u2019t be happier for them.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kieran Culkin, the American actor best known for his roles in Succession, Igby Goes Down, and A Real Pain, recently\u2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":294,"featured_media":94277,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[67],"tags":[4340],"class_list":["post-94276","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-celebrity-news","tag-kieran-culkin"],"reading_time":"3 min read","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/94276","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/294"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=94276"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/94276\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/94277"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=94276"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=94276"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=94276"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
