Jean-Claude Van Damme & Gladys Portugues


Belgian actor Jean-Claude Van Damme and American bodybuilder Gladys Portugues, like any other couples, experienced the ups and downs that come with a relationship. Jean-Claude has been married twice before his love story with Gladys started. They met in a photoshoot and got married in 1987. The two had two children together before separating in 2002.

After entering into several relationships and marrying and dissolving one of them, Jean-Claude and Gladys got back together and re-married in 1999 in Belgium. They almost got into another legal separation, but it seems lawyers will have to step aside as the two continue to cling to the love they have for each other. Their relationship may not be the most perfect in the industry, but it’s clearly one of the most enduring. Not many celebrity couples could boast about having a love this strong, and for that, we commend Gladys and Jean-Claude.
