Caleb James Goddard is famous for being the son of Jack Nicholson. Like his parents, he is also involved in the entertainment industry.
Born on September 26, 1970, in Los Angeles, California, USA, he is the only son of Susan Anspach and Jack Nicholson.
Paternity Struggles
Susan Anspach claimed that Jack Nicholson is the father of her son, Caleb James Goddard. However, the actor denied the claims during his interview with Rolling Stone in 1984.
She (Susan) says that (Caleb being his son) all the time. But because of the way she’s been toward me, I’ve never been allowed a real avenue to find out about it.
Jack also revealed that he wasn’t convinced that Caleb was his son. Goddard is believed to have been conceived in 1969 when Susan and Jack were filming for the movie, Five Easy Pieces.
Though he didn’t acknowledge Caleb as his child, Jack helped him get through college. He also helped when his son had a medical problem at age 10.
Jack would say, ‘I didn’t have a father and I’m a superstar. It didn’t hurt me.’ And I would say, But you didn’t have to see your father on every corner. You are ever-present, ubiquitous. You are too famous to do this. It’s unkind.’
Susan claimed Jack didn’t think Caleb needed a father since he didn’t hava father while growing up!
Caleb and Jack only met when he was well into adolescence.
