Kieran Culkin has become the unexpected star of a wedding photo that’s now gone viral. The Succession actor was spotted in Central Park recently, casually strolling through what turned out to be a wedding photoshoot and ending up right in the middle of the frame.
The moment was captured by photographer Stephanie Naru, who shared the candid snap on Instagram. In the image, a bride and groom pose romantically while Culkin appears in the background, wearing a confused expression as he inadvertently walks into the shot. The Emmy winner, who appeared to be enjoying a solo outing, seemed briefly perplexed, as if he thought he was the one being photographed.
Netizens quickly picked up on the photo, with the post gaining traction under the caption ‘Kieran Culkin accidentally photobombed a wedding photoshoot in Central Park recently’. One commenter joked, ‘He looks perplexed – as if for a second he thought they were taking his picture on purpose’. Others simply appreciated the wholesome randomness of the situation.
While Culkin himself has yet to comment, fans have already dubbed the image a classic New York moment, where celebrity and real life often collide in the most unexpected ways. With his signature low-key charm and dishevelled style, Culkin’s accidental appearance has sparked waves of affection across social media.
The photo, now widely shared across Instagram and Reddit, has only cemented Culkin’s reputation as the type of celebrity who can turn a quiet stroll into a viral cultural moment. It’s unclear whether the bride and groom knew who wandered into their photo at the time, but they’ll certainly have a story for the ages.
