Mark Wahlberg Skips on Brother Donnie's Wedding, Actor Not A Fan of Jenny McCarthy

While Mark Wahlberg had skipped on the wedding celebrations, he took the time to send his best wishes to his brother Donnie on his big day.

The "Lone Survivor" star took to social media last Saturday and shared his message of congratulations: "Congratulations @DonnieWahlberg and @JennyMcCarthy, so happy for you both today."

While their relationship as brothers had been tight during their boyband stints as members of New Kids On The Block, Wahlberg apparently did not find it extremely important to fly from Los Angeles to New York and attend the nuptials.

TMZ has reported that the 43-year-old actor skipped his older brother's celebrations to tie the knot with Jenny McCarthy last Saturday because he and his wife Rhea are not exactly fans of his fiancé.  

The "Transformers" actor's rep spoke out and claimed that Wahlberg will not be heading to New York for the wedding as he should stay in L.A. for his daughter's birthday celebration.

Ella will turn 11 on Tuesday but his model father will be filming in Boston that day, hence the need to stay home for the weekend.

Wahlberg's wife, fashion model Rhea Durham, will be absent as well.

No full family affair can be expected with brother Bobby skipping on the wedding, although older brother Paul has confirmed his attendance.

Aside from TMZ, multiple sources have claimed that Wahlberg does not approve of TV host McCarthy as his older brother's wife-to-be.

The 41-year-old previously dated Jim Carrey and was married to John Mallory Asher from 1999 through 2005. Now, the famous divorcee has reportedly troubled the Wahlberg family after her interview with Howard Stern with which she was quite blunt about her sex life before Donnie came into her life. 

McCarthy told the jock: 'I've been searching for the one - as you know, you were even helping me last time I was here trying to figure out people - so I went on a year of not dating, not f***ing, doing nothing except being by myself."

She also added: "I went through probably 400 vibrators."

When asked whether she was expecting Wahlberg to attend the wedding, McCarthy responded with a yes.

Meanwhile, the actor flew in from Boston and returned to L.A. this week to continue filming the sequel to "Ted."
