Beloved actress Brenda Song, known to fans around the world as the iconic London Tipton from The Suite Life of Zack & Cody, recently opened up about her life as a sports-loving mom of two.
In a heartwarming interview with Entertainment Tonight after attending a Los Angeles Rams game, Song shared candid insights into how she supports her sons, Dakota, 3, and Carson, 2, whom she shares with fiancé Macaulay Culkin.
Brenda Song revealed that both of her young boys are already active in soccer, and being on the sidelines as a mom has been an exciting – and humbling – experience. “My boys play soccer already, and I’m like, ‘Hey, chill out Brenda,’” she laughed. “Participation is all that matters, right?” The 37-year-old actress confessed that while it’s easy to get carried away with competitive energy, she reminds herself that encouragement and fun are what truly count at this age. “I try not to push them. I just encourage them,” Song added, showing her commitment to being a supportive and grounded parent.
The Last Showgirl star also shared her deep appreciation for the spirit of sports. “The thing I love about sports is it brings a lot of people together,” she said with a smile. “It’s such a wonderful commonality to have, so I’m like, I love the vibes.” For fans of Brenda Song, it’s no surprise that her bubbly, positive energy shines through both on and off the field.
Earlier this month, in honor of Mother’s Day, Song spoke with People magazine about the whirlwind that is parenting two toddlers. “You’re running all the time,” she said. “I mean, these little people depend on you, and you do everything for them.” Her honest reflections struck a chord with many fans who admire her ability to balance career, family, and fun.
Brenda Song and Culkin welcomed Dakota in 2021 and got engaged in early 2022. Later that same year, they celebrated the arrival of baby Carson — and since then, Song has embraced motherhood with open arms and an even bigger heart.
