The baby is reported to have been born on 5 April and the first-time mom and dad are both doing okay in their home in Los Angeles. Culkin named his son Dakota Song Culkin in honour of his late big sister.
Song and Culkin sparked love interest rumours back in 2017 and since then, kept their love life very private and stayed away from the spotlight. However, they have made appearances on each other's social media.
The actor had mentioned in 2018 while appearing on the Joe Rogan Experience podcast interview that he was planning on starting a family soon.
"This one is a good one, so I am probably going to put some babies in her in a little bit. I mean, we have definitely been practising."
We can only wait to see if the baby will also follow in the parents' footsteps in the acting sector.
