Macaulay Culkin and Brenda Song are ENGAGED nearly one year after welcoming their son Dakota
MACAULAY Culkin and Brenda Song are ENGAGED nearly one year after they welcomed their son, Dakota.
The Home Alone actor and Disney Channel alum have been dating for four years.
Nearly one year after welcoming their first child together, a source confirmed to PEOPLE that Macaulay, 41, and Brenda, 33, are engaged.
The confirmation comes after the actress was photographed rocking a diamond ring on her left hand while out in Beverly Hills on Monday.
Brenda was seen wearing a long red jacket over a black dress and leather mules.
She held her phone - covered in a lavender case - in her right hand while her empty left hand peeked out from beneath the sleeve of her jacket.
Her diamond ring-clad hand was just visible as she ran her errands.
LOVE STORY
Macaulay and Brenda first met on the set of their film Changeland in Thailand.

Meanwhile, they were first romantically linked in July 2017 when they were spotted grabbing dinner at the Los Angeles restaurant Craig's.
The engagement news comes nearly one year after they welcomed their son Dakota in April 2021.
WELCOMING DAKOTA
The couple eventually welcomed Dakota in April, weighing in at 6 pounds, 14 ounces.
Macaulay and Brenda shared the news with Esquire, saying at the time: "We're overjoyed."
The duo lives together with their son and three cats - Apples, Dude, and Santa.
They also have a fish named Cinnamon.
The couple named their son after the actor's late sister, who was killed in a car accident in 2008 at the age of 29.
One month after giving birth, Brenda was seen out and about for the first time while on a walk with her son and mother.
The Suite Life of Zack and Cody alum held Dakota close in a blanket while they went out on a walk.
