BRENDA’S BACKGROUND
Brenda began her career at the age of six working as a child model before embarking on early projects on the Nickelodeon and Disney channel.

“I think when you and your partner have kids, especially the first few months, you don’t have the patience to be polite with each other.
“Being communicative when you need help is so important. Instead of having set duties, we just feel each other out.
She continued, “I’ll be putting my son down and my partner is like, “Let me feed the animals and get dinner ready.'”
The pair first revealed that they were working on starting a family together in 2021 when Macaulay told Esquire that he and Brenda would “practice a lot.”
He also shared, “We’re figuring it out, making the timing work.
“Because nothing turns you on more than when your lady comes into the room and says, ‘Honey, I’m ovulating.'” the actor jokingly added.
