Catherine O'Hara recalls terrifying subway incident with her sons

Catherine O'Hara recalls a frightening incident when her sons almost got left behind on a subway.

In a recent interview, actress Catherine O'Hara opened up about a terrifying incident involving her own children that gave her a newfound empathy for the characters in the iconic Home Alone movies. O'Hara, who famously portrayed Kevin McAllister's mother in the films, revealed how she and her husband, Bo Welch, once had a harrowing experience when their sons, Matthew and Luke, were left behind on a subway platform.

Reflecting on the incident, O'Hara shared her shock and fear as she and Welch realized their sons hadn't made it onto the train with them. Recounting the panic that ensued, O'Hara explained how she screamed for her kids, instantly grabbing the attention of fellow subway passengers who joined in her distress. Fortunately, the doors reopened just in time, allowing the boys to board the train safely. O'Hara admitted that the thought of what could have happened still haunts her to this day.
