Jean-Claude Van Damme Divorces His Wife For The Second Time
If we’ve learned anything about Jean-Claude Van Damme, it’s that he doesn’t do things by halves.
As if to compound this, it’s emerged that he’s divorced his wife Gladys Portugues for the second time.
Court documents seen by TMZ have confirmed the legal split after 15 years of marriage, citing irreconcilable differences.
This will be the fifth divorce clocked up by The Muscles from Brussels.
He married the former bodybuilder Portugues in 1987, up to 1992, the pair having two now grown-up children.
They split when it emerged that he had had an affair with actress and model Darcy LaPier, whom he married in an ceremony in Thailand in 1994.
They had a son called Nicholas from the union, but split in 1997.
It’s since come out that Van Damme had an affair with Kylie Minogue while making ‘Street Fighter’, the same year he married LaPier, who also had a bit part in the film.
He was also married to Maria Rodriguez for four years up to 1984, and Cynthia Derderian from 1985 to 1986.
He remarried Portugues in 1999, having son Kristopher in 1987 and daughter Bianca in 1990.
