Mark Wahlberg’s kids don’t like his ’90s fashion sense.

Wahlberg, 51, recently sat down with his “Me Time” co-stars Kevin Hart and Regina Hall for an interview in which he shared that his children are “terribly embarrassed” by his old looks.

“Oh, they’re terribly embarrassed about it,” Wahlberg said during the interview with Entertainment Tonight, discussing his “Marky Mark”-era fashion. “Marky Mark” was Wahlberg’s stage name in the 1990s.

However, Wahlberg jokingly added, “My son, the whole time we were on summer break, he doesn’t have a shirt on and his underwear is hanging off. He stole the whole look.”

“My son just turned 16,” he revealed. “And he’s ashamed of everything I do. Even things that people think are cool in 2022, like movies and stuff. He’s like, ‘Dad, that’s so dumb. Dad, that’s terrible.'”

Even with his son’s criticism, Wahlberg shared that his entire family got together to enjoy watching his new comedy “Me Time.”

“I saw with all my family [without them] know something about the story and the script, and see that children can enjoy it as much as adults [was great],” he said.
