A renowned actor and singer, Mark Wahlberg, recently revealed that family time with his siblings is strictly personal.
Speaking to PEOPLE magazine to promote his new movie, Flight Risk, the 53-year-old talked about how he and his eight siblings handle family gatherings.
Wahlberg shared that he and his siblings do not talk much about work when they spend time together.
The Ted star quipped, "We don't really get into it that much. I think when we're getting together and spending time together, it's really just about quality time together as a family."
Expanding on this, he added, "I think there was more of that before, but now it's just like... I think we've all gotten to an age where it's like, life is too short. We gotta just enjoy each other's company as often as possible. And I got over criticizing my siblings after my early forties."
For the unversed, the Daddy's Home star's siblings include Michelle Wahlberg, Arthur Wahlberg, Paul Wahlberg, Jim Wahlberg, Tracey Wahlberg, Robert Wahlberg, and Donnie Wahlberg.
Notably, the 55-year-old Debbie, who was also an actor, singer, and songwriter, passed away in 2003 due to "complications of acute cocaine intoxication."
He became famous after acting and singing with the boy band New Kids on the Block.
It is pertinent to mention that Jim, Robert, and Arthur have also worked in film and TV.
Paul also appeared with Mark and Donnie on their reality show titled Wahlburgers in 2010.
