Jean-Claude Van Damme, the legendary action film star noted for his martial arts abilities and his unforgettable performances in movies like Bloodsport, Kickboxer, and Universal Soldier, has definitely been a devoted family man through all his ups and downs, including the upbringing of his talented kids.

Nicolas Van Varenberg, the youngest of his kids, is in many ways the most remarkable of all his children. So who is Nicolas, and what do we know about Van Damme's other children?

Who is Nicolas Van Varenberg?

Nicholas, born in Los Angeles, California, on October 10, 1995, to Jean-Claude Van Damme and his former wife, Darcy LaPier, has managed to have a decent career in acting so far. The movies Kickboxer: Retaliation and Darkness of Man were the platforms used to show off his acting skills.

Nicolas hit the headlines in 2017 when he had legal problems for allegedly scaring his roommate with a knife. Although the court found him guilty of the charge of disorderly conduct, he has not had any legal problems through the media since then.

Jean-Claude Van Damme's Other Children

Now, besides Nicolas, Jean-Claude Van Damme’s union with former bodybuilder and fitness champion Gladys Portugues produced two more children.

Kristopher Van Varenberg

Kristopher, or Kris Van Damme, was born in 1987 and has been in the same domain as his dad, stepping into the action film area. Like father, like son. He has been alongside Van Damme in a number of films, the likes of which include The Eagle Path, 6 Bullets, and Enemies Closer. Kris’s constant appearances in filmmaking have shown his strong commitment to carrying on his father's work in the field of action cinema.

Bianca Bree (Bianca Van Damme)

Originally, Bianca Bree explored ballet and speed skating at the outset before she made the transition to movies and martial arts. Her activities in the entertainment area are of the same media as much as her father's are, but she is distinguished by the fact of introducing very modern action episodes into her hair-raising renditions. In addition, she has worked in three films alongside Van Damme, namely Assassination Games, Welcome to the Jungle, and Full Love. She has also expressed her wish to make martial arts genre films of the 21st century.

The Van Damme Impact

It is clear that Jean-Claude Van Damme has been the main influence on his kids, as everyone has taken different paths in entertainment while still having a connection with action cinema and martial arts. In general, the youngest, Nicolas Van Varenberg, has been dealing with some personal issues, while both Kristopher and Bianca have been doing a good job in their careers.

As long as Van Damme's presence is still felt in action movies, his kids are there to pick up where he leaves off, and they could be in any form - acting, martial arts, or a mix of both. Therefore, the emerging new generation of Van Damme is still something exciting for fans of the distinguished action star.
