His father is a rapper turned actor who has worked with Reese Witherspoon and George Clooney, his mother was a model while his uncle was in NKOTB - who is he?

His dad used to be a rapper 30 years ago as he often performed shirt-free to show off his abs.

Then he became an A-list movie star who has worked with Reese Witherspoon, The Rock, George Clooney and a talking teddy bear, to name a few.

This actor also produced a massive TV show about a famous guy and his knucklehead pals. 

His mom was a model who posed for top fashion magazines, and she still looks cover worthy these days as she is constantly photographed on the red carpet.

And his uncle was in New Kids On The Block, a reality TV show, a police show and several movies.

This teenager was seen at his dad's movie premiere on Wednesday.

Who is he?

He is 17-year-old Michael Wahlberg, the son of model Rhea Durham, 45, and movie star Mark Wahlberg, 52.

His uncle is Donnie Wahlberg from New Kids On The Block. He is married to Playboy model Jenny McCarthy and has starred on the TV show Blue Bloods and Wahlburgers. Donnie was also in Band Of Brothers, The Sixth Sense and a few Saw movies.

Michael wore prescription glasses and an ivory hoodie with dark slacks as he posed with his parents at the premiere of dad's new comedy The Family Plan with costar Michelle Monaghan.

Next to Michael was model Sunni Gaines.

The event took place at The Chelsea at The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas.

Aside from Michael, the pair also share son Brendan, 15, and daughters Ella, 20, and Grace, 13. 

Michael's name pays tribute to both his father and his grandfather. 'My dad called me Mike since I was a kid,' Wahlberg shared ahead of this birth. 'So in honor of my dad, I think we're going to name him Michael.'

Michael was 'obsessed with everything sports' when growing up, said he dad. And he likes to box too. 'He just punches me as hard as he can,' Wahlberg said of Michael. 'Fun for him, not fun for me because literally I was like, "This kid is starting to hit hard man!"'

In 2022, Michael made his confirmation. Dad said, 'So proud of this young man❤️congrats buddy!! Even though mommy deserves most of the credit thanks babe❤️.'

Wahlberg celebrated Michael's 17th birthday in March: 'Happy B Day Mikey- can't believe you're 17 already❤️time goes by so fast, so proud of the wonderful young man you are.'

He was then gifted his first car: a Ford Bronco.

Mark and Rhea have been married since 2009.

In the action comedy Wahlberg portrays a devoted family man who is forced to deal with consequences of his past as a covert assassin, while Michelle plays his wife.

This is the second time Michelle took on the role of Wahlberg's wife. 

She previously played his spouse in the 2016 film Patriots Day, an action thriller about the Boston Marathon bombings in 2013.

The Family Plan is scheduled to be released on the Apple TV+ streaming service on December 15.

In October Mark revealed his wife and kids are 'adapting nicely' to desert life, after they made the move to Vegas from Los Angeles.

Wahlberg and his family moved to Las Vegas a year ago in October 2022.

The actor was promoting Wahlberg Week for his fitness brand F45 when he opened up about his family's new life in Nevada.

'Everybody's adapted nicely. The kids are all out at school, and everybody's happy,' Wahlberg said.

He added that he's 'constantly busy and traveling, so I'm looking forward to getting home and spending some time with the family' over the holidays.

Wahlberg revealed in a mid-October 2022 appearance on The Talk that he moved his family to Nevada.

'I want to be able to work from home. I moved to California many years ago to pursue acting and I've only made a couple of movies in the entire time that I was there,' he said.

'To be able to give my kids a better life and follow and pursue their dreams, whether it be my daughter as an equestrian, my son as a basketball player, my younger son as a golfer, this made a lot more sense for us,' he added.

'We came here to just kind of give ourselves a new look, a fresh start for the kids, and there's lot of opportunity here,' he added.

'I'm really excited about the future,' he added.
