Jack Nicholson's Daughter Posts Uncommon Family Picture of the 88-Year-Old Actor With Two of His 6 Children

Jack Nicholson, who has six children aged between 31 and 61, was recently featured in a rare family snapshot shared by his daughter Lorraine Nicholson. The 35-year-old posted a photo on Instagram showing herself, her 33-year-old brother Ray, and their father enjoying Thanksgiving together.

The image was part of a December 4 Instagram post where Lorraine reflected on her November to remember. The Thanksgiving photo captured the iconic actor smiling warmly with his children, giving fans an uncommon look into the familys private celebrations.

Besides Lorraine and Ray, whom he shares with ex Rebecca Broussard, Nicholsons other children include Jennifer Nicholson, 61, Caleb Goddard, 54, Honey Hollman, 43, and Tessa Gourin, 31. Earlier this year, Lorraine also shared another snapshot of her father in what appeared to be a holiday-themed photo collection on Instagram.

Both Lorraine and Ray have followed careers in Hollywood. In a March interview, Ray reflected on his unique perspective growing up with Nicholson, saying he has embraced it rather than hiding from it.

In 2010, Nicholson spoke to AARP Magazine about his relationship with Lorraine and Ray, emphasizing the importance of guiding them without imposing, and exposing them to arts and sports to broaden their experiences. I always read to them, from childhood on. I took them to things I knew they might not loveopera, ballet. They like going to the ball games with me. And they are very comfortable around show business. They are good set rats, he said.

Jennifer Nicholson, the eldest, shared in a 2003 interview that being Jack Nicholsons daughter comes with pride but also unique pressures. Ray also discussed his bond with his father, describing Nicholson as his inspiration and hero, noting the impact of daily dinners and lessons in life.

However, Nicholsons relationship with his youngest child, Tessa, has been distant. In a 2023 Newsweek piece, she revealed that they never had a close bond, expressing the challenges of having an absent parent who is active in the lives of other siblings.
