Kristopher Van Varenberg | Jean-Claude Van Damme‘s Son

Kristopher Van Varenberg or known as Kris Van Damme is the firstborn son of Jean-Claude Van Damme. Kris was born in 1987 in Los Angeles to Gladys Portugues. Given the influence and popularity of his father, Kris followed Van Damme’s footsteps and became an action star, too.

Since he was five, Kris has been acting alongside his father. He has starred in several action films, such as Welcome to the Jungle in 2013 and Black Water in 2018. Kris also co-wrote the movies The Tower and Eagle Path. As he pursued a career in filmmaking, he established his own production company called Rodin Entertainment. It is unknown whether he applied for a business loan or Van Damme invested in his business, but one thing is for sure, Kris has the support of his parents. Kris has been private about his affairs. His last known relationship was with Ilaria Zamprioli, whom he met while filming The Eagle Path in 2010.
