Kirsten Dunst Reveals WHY Her Son Got Into a Fight With Jimmy Kimmel’s Son at School
During the April 4th episode of “Jimmy Kimmel Live,” actress Kirsten Dunst opened up about a humorous yet relatable incident involving her son and Jimmy Kimmel’s son at school. The actress, known for her roles in films like “Spider-Man” and “Marie Antoinette,” shared the amusing anecdote with Kimmel, shedding light on the lighter side of parenting.
Dunst revealed that her son, Andis, who is five years old, and Kimmel’s son, Billy, who is six, attend the same kindergarten class. The parents found themselves discussing a recent altercation between the two boys during a parent-teacher conference. The incident involved a fight over a chair, a common occurrence among young children navigating the social dynamics of kindergarten.
According to Dunst, the dispute began when Billy left his seat to sharpen a pencil, only to return and find Andis sitting in his chair. This led to a confrontation between the two boys, resulting in tears and hurt feelings. Kimmel jokingly added his own version of the story, highlighting the unpredictable nature of children’s conflicts.
As with most childhood squabbles, the drama quickly dissipated, and both boys ended up in tears before ultimately moving past the incident. Despite the minor scuffle, Dunst emphasized that both boys are part of a “very sweet group” and generally get along well with each other. She expressed hope that the incident was an isolated one and praised the kindness of the teachers overseeing the class.
The conversation then turned lighthearted as Kimmel teased Dunst about her two-year-old son, James, who shares a name with the host. Dunst affectionately referred to her youngest son as “Jimmy” when he misbehaves, joking about his energetic and humorous personality.
Later in the interview, Dunst revealed that her sons have varying reactions to her past role as Mary Jane Watson in the “Spider-Man” franchise. While Kimmel’s son shows little interest in her cinematic endeavors, preferring to watch specific scenes repeatedly, Dunst’s older son, Andis, is actually afraid of the superhero film. Despite her iconic role, Dunst’s children seem more captivated by other aspects of their mother’s life.
The playful banter between Dunst and Kimmel provided a glimpse into the humorous moments that parents experience while navigating the challenges of raising young children. Despite the occasional conflicts and misunderstandings, Dunst and Kimmel shared a light-hearted exchange that highlighted the joys and quirks of parenthood.
