'Home Alone' Star Daniel Stern Cited for Soliciting a Prostitute in California

Daniel Stern, best known for his role as Marv in the *Home Alone* films and for voicing the adult Kevin in *The Wonder Years*, has been cited in California for allegedly soliciting a prostitute. The incident occurred in Camarillo on December 10, 2025, and resulted in a misdemeanor citation rather than an arrest. Stern, who now resides in Ventura County and focuses on sculpture and ranch life, has not made a public statement about the charge. While some fans express disappointment, others note his long career of beloved performances. The news arrives just weeks after Stern was commissioned to create a bronze sculpture commemorating a scene from *Home Alone*. The incident has sparked online discussion about separating personal behavior from public legacies, especially with entertainers from past decades.
