Jack Nicholson<\/strong><\/a>‘s daughter is giving fans a rare glimpse of the actor in celebration of his 89th birthday.<\/p>\n While commemorating Jack\u2019s birthday on Thursday, April 23, Lorraine Nicholson<\/strong> shared a throwback image via her Instagram Story of the Oscar winner, writing, \u201c89?\u201d<\/p>\n In a separate picture, Jack could be seen clapping his hands while smiling. \u201c89!!\u201d Lorraine, 36, wrote.<\/p>\n Jack welcomed daughter Lorraine<\/a> in 1990 with Rebecca Broussard<\/strong>. The pair added son Ray to their family in 1992 before calling it quits in 1993.<\/p>\n Jack Nicholson\u2019s Life Out of the Spotlight: Family Get-Togethers, Rare Outings and More<\/a><\/p>\n Jack, for his part, welcomed his first daughter, Jennifer, in 1963 with ex-wife Sandra Knight<\/strong>. After their divorce was finalized in 1968, Jack allegedly had a fling with Susan Anspach<\/strong>, which resulted in the birth of his second child, Caleb Goddard<\/strong>. Jack has not publicly acknowledged his paternity.<\/p>\n Years later, Jack welcomed daughter Honey with actress Winnie Hollman<\/strong> in 1982. Tessa Gourin<\/strong>, who was born to waitress Jennine Gourin<\/strong> in 1994, has claimed that Jack is her biological father \u2014 but he has not confirmed his paternity.<\/p>\n Jack has led a largely private life since he stepped back from acting, with his last role in the 2010 rom-com How Do You Know. That same year, Jack opened up about his close relationship with daughter Lorraine and son Ray.<\/p>\n \u201cWe\u2019ve always gotten along,\u201d he told AARP. \u201cI want to be inspirational, or some kind of good influence on them without overburdening them. It\u2019s their time of life to find out who they are.\u201d<\/p>\n Jack Nicholson\u2019s Daughter Says the Actor\u2019s Romance With Lara Flynn Boyle Was a \u2018Bridge\u2019 to His Kids<\/a><\/p>\n One year later, Lorraine gushed over her father being a \u201cmentor\u201d in her life.<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019m going into the family business because we\u2019re so close and he\u2019s such an inspiration. I admire him so much,\u201d she exclusively told Us in 2011. \u201cMy grandma always told my father, \u2018Don\u2019t toot your own horn,\u2019 which in Nicholson speak means, \u2018Be modest and let your work speak for yourself.\u2019 That\u2019s sort of what I applied to not only my acting work, but my everyday work.\u201d<\/p>\n Years later, Lorraine accompanied her dad in a rare outing<\/a> at the SNL 50: The Anniversary Special. Jack, who sat in the crowd next to Lorraine, introduced pal Adam Sandler<\/strong> to the stage.<\/p>\n Sandler, meanwhile, gave Jack a shout-out, saying, \u201cYeah, baby! Let\u2019s hear it for Jack, baby. Jack made it out tonight. Love you, brother.\u201d<\/p>\n
