Far more likely that they are just typical Hollywood egomaniacs.

I’ve met him a few times and have been out with him. He’s nice, polite, shy and perhaps a bit boring. He does not come off as an egomaniac at all.

Sure, if you’re Brenda from DC…not if you’re a wealthy celebrity named Luke Wilson. If he asked someone to marry him, they would say yes.

Sure - we are just wondering what that reason is.

Believe it or not, there are perfectly desirable people who'd like to get married and have a family, but for whatever reason, it doesn't happen for them.

Yup, and that is my go-to Luke Wilson association to this day. I never think of his more famous roles: he’ll always be Sheriff Hartwell (say it quickly, sounds like Sheriff Fartwell) to me.

This is awesome! If I knew you in real life, I’d suggest we have an annual tradition of watching the episode with food and drink appropriate to the setting.

I still remember the name of the episode: Bad Blood! So hilarious. I’ll toast to you in absentia the next time I see it!

Maybe his dad was a jerk? Maybe that’s why Owen won’t acknowledge his love child and why Luke won’t settle down?

Who knows?

Typically, daughters of bad fathers act out sexually and date bad men. Sons of bad fathers embrace their bad behavior. Sons with mommy issues have trouble with intimacy.

This is a total crap based on nothing. It’s much more likely that the brothers were screwed (insofar as they were screwed) by being famous Hollywood stars with easy access to infinite number of beautiful women.

Why would anyone want a guy like that?

That’s Owen

I started googling after seeing this post and looked at Owen’s wiki that says he has 3 kids, then an article stating he has only 2 kids.

How come he doesn’t acknowledge the little girl?

He’s a terrible human being.

That’s why I wouldn’t be surprised if Luke is a jerk, too.

If you google them, there’s a lot online about their mother. Very career oriented. I wonder if their childhood screwed then up in some way? Maybe they had a front row seat to an unhappy marriage?

ARE YOU FOR REAL. Are you seriously asking this in the year of our Lord 2021?

Also, their childhood sounds pretty far from horrific because, gasp, their mother was a photographer.

SMDH at people.

Kids from bad homes tend to shy away from marriage and kids—especially boys. Plenty of psychology and family research on this.

how was his home bad? I am not seeing it.

It’s a guess. Everyone here is guessing.

But dismissing it completely is silly. It isn’t a stretch for kids from bad marriages to shy away from marriage.

but we have literally zero evidence that their parent’s marriage was bad. they were married for like 50 years until the father died.

So I looked into that and saw he went to St Mark's in Dallas, which is the St Albans of Dallas. It looks like he got into trouble at St Mark's and was then sent to NMMI, which is a well heeled private military school. So maybe he's just always been troubled and it has nothing to do with his mom having a job?

Sigh.

Obviously not every working mom has a negative impact on her kid. But sometimes kids with absent parents do suffer and act out.

Bouncing around multiple schools followed by an inability to commit to a relationship point to something, no?

Why do you think so many kids of celebrities are screwed up? Absent parents.

To be clear: your average Dcumlandia 9-5 isn’t the same as super-driven/super-successful career women. And, artists are notorious for having other issues (anxiety, mania, addiction, etc.). Lastly, any marriage can go off the rails and prompt fighting. If kids see that, they shy away from marriage (particularly boys when the mom is the one who brings drama).
