Denzel Washington: Early Life and Family

Malcolm was born on April 10, 1991, in Los Angeles, California, USA, under the sign of Aries, and is an American citizen. Malcolm grew up in the household of famed actor Denzel Washington and his wife Pauletta Washington.

He has three siblings: an actor and producer older brother, John David Washington; an actress older sister, Katia Washington; and a twin sister, Olivia Rachel Washington.

Denzel named his son Malcolm after the American human rights activist Malcolm X (born Malcolm Little), as Pauletta was already expecting Malcolm and Olivia when Denzel began work on the film about the famed Muslim priest and controversial campaigner, who was murdered at the age of 39. However, it did not frighten Denzel or instill any bias in him, and he thought that it was a suitable name for his youngest kid.

Parents in Hollywood

Even though Malcolm was raised as an ordinary boy and was not spoiled by his parents’ privileges, it is worth noting that both Denzel and Pauletta are truly accomplished and respected actors not only in the United States but around the world. Denzel Washington was the first black actor to get two Academy Awards.

He has appeared in films such as “Philadelphia” (1993), “Virtuosity” (1995), “Courage Under Fire” (1996), and “Fallen” (1998). He also appeared in “The Siege” (1998) alongside Bruce Willis, in the movie “The Hurricane” (1999), which depicts the tale of the legendary boxer, and in “American Gangster” (2007) alongside Russell Crowe and Chiwetel Ejiofor.

His two Academy Awards are for Best Supporting Actor in “Glory” (1989) and Best Actor in “Training Day” (1993). (2002). Malcolm’s mother, Pauletta, is a well-known actress who has been in films and television shows such as “Happily Ever After Fairy Tales for Every Child” (1995-2000), “The Watsons Go to Birmingham” (2013), and “She’s Gotta Have It” (2017 – 2019).

Education Details

Malcolm attended a private school in Los Angeles, but the name of the institution is unknown because his parents sought to keep any information about their children private so that they did not attract attention from the press and society while they were young.

In 2009, he graduated from high school and enrolled at the University of Pennsylvania. He was far too athletic during his university years. He played basketball for the university team, and his head coach recognized a lot of potential in him.

Malcolm, on the other hand, found it to be a severe test because he felt quite uncomfortable as soon as he arrived at college: ‘Back home, it was low-key, but in college, I was put into an environment where everybody knew everything about me.’ Before I arrived, 10,000 people already knew who I was. It’s insane. I’m getting used to it.’

Even though the Washingtons have always been scrutinized by the media, they have managed to keep all facts about their personal lives private, and Malcolm is no exception. Nothing is known about his present relationship status because he never appeared in public with any of his girlfriends. He’s never acknowledged any of his current or previous relationships, so his followers are left to wonder if he’s single or not.

Denzel received $20 million for his performances in “2 Guns” and “The Equalizer,” making him one of Hollywood’s most costly actors. Fans of the Washington family hope that Malcolm will emulate his father’s success and that his future net worth would improve his family’s money.

Professional Career
