Jack Nicholson and his daughter Lorraine Nicholson were spotted in a rare family pic together.
Taking to Instagram on Thursday, Lorraine shared a snap that showed her sitting next to her dad and hugging him, while he sweetly placed his hand around her arm.
The “Shining” actor, 87, appeared to be in good spirits and flashed a soft-smile at the camera with his daughter, who widely grinned for the camera.
He wore a striped bowling shirt while his daughter sported a black turtleneck sweater.
“the giving season 🎁,” Lorraine captioned her photo dump.
The 34-year-old also included snaps with some of the “Chinatown” actor’s other children and grandchildren.
In one selfie, Lorraine smiled while she clung to her brother, Raymond Nicholson, her nephew, Duke Nicholson, and his girlfriend, influencer Devon Lee Carlson.
The Oscar winner has six children with five different women. He also has two grandchildren from his eldest daughter.
His oldest daughter — 61-year-old Jennifer Nicholson, whom he shares with ex-wife Sandra Knight –– has sons Sean Nicholson, 28, and Duke Nicholson, 26, from her first marriage to ex-husband Mark Norfleet.
While Jack was starring on the hit film “Five Easy Pieces,” he allegedly began seeing co-star Susan Anspach. She became pregnant and eventually gave birth to son Caleb Goddard in 1970.
Anspach claimed that Jack was the biological father. He denied the paternity for 28 years before publicly confirming that he was indeed Caleb’s dad.
Jack went on to welcome daughter Honey Hollman with model Winnie Hollman in 1981. Honey, 44, has mostly stayed out of the spotlight since her mom raised her in Denmark.
The “Departed” actor shares Lorraine and Raymond, 32, with ex-girlfriend Rebecca Broussard, whom he dated from 1990 to 1994.
Jack is rarely seen out and about in public, but when he has stepped out, it’s mostly been to attend his beloved Lakers games with his son Raymond and grandson Duke.
Additionally, Jack allegedly conceived daughter Tessa, now 30, with former waitress Jennine Gourin in 1994. He has never publicly acknowledged Tessa as his biological daughter.
Tessa has since spoken out about the alleged estrangement and being Jack’s “illegitimate” daughter in a 2023 essay for Newsweek.
“The truth is, in all of my 28 years of life, we have never had a relationship,” she wrote at the time. “Although I flew from New York City to Los Angeles to meet on the odd occasion as a young girl (at the behest of my mother), it was always clear that he wanted no part in my life.”
