Mark Wahlberg made his latest red carpet a family affair.

When the 53-year-old actor stepped out in Los Angeles on Monday, August 12 for the premiere of his Netflix film The Union, he brought along wife Rhea Durham, 46, their sons Michael, 18, and Brendan, 15, and daughter Grace, 14. Though eldest daughter Ella, 20, was not in attendance, as she is away at college, Michael was joined by his girlfriend, Sunni Gaines.

Mark was casual yet chic in a simple white T-shirt, a gray jacket with bright orange lining, coordinating gray slacks, and white sneakers. His kids Brendan and Grace both wore jeans and sneakers paired with T-shirts, while Durham was a bit more dressed up in a black tank top, black and tan pencil skirt, and strappy black heels.

Michael and Gaines dressed to impress in a striped button down and dress slacks and a sequined halter dress, respectively. Gaines is often seen joining in for family events, such as Durham's birthday dinner at Carbone in July.

Mark appeared to be in good spirits for the premiere, as he showed off a big smile while posing on the carpet with his family. He was also seen posing alongside co-star Halle Berry, 57, who stunned in a sheer, lacy black dress and strappy black heels.

Speaking with Fox News about the action/thriller movie last month, Mark admitted that even after all these years it is "a little weird" to be "portraying some sort of romance on screen."

However, he made it clear that his work doesn't affect his relationship with Durham, to whom he has been married since 2009. "It's not normal, but my wife knows that she is my everything," he told the publication. "She is the most special woman in the world."

Mark and his wife met at a press junket in New York City in 2001, and the actor said he quickly knew that she was "the one." The longtime couple were joined by children Ella, Michael, and Brendan when they tied the knot at Good Shepherd Catholic Church in Beverly Hills in 2009. They welcomed youngest daughter Grace the following year.
