The relevant photos were shared on media.

First, it became known that the American and Belgian actor visited one of the private clinics in Uzhhorod. A joint photo with Van Damme was posted by Transcarpathian doctor Mykhailo Yershov. Doctors refused to tell the star's visit details, citing that they had been forbidden to do so by the actor himself.

Jean-Claude Van Damme visited the Derenivska Kupil. A photo of the Hollywood actor was posted on the page of the tourist complex. The star dressed in embroidery worked out in the gym and asked about the history of the Derenivska Kupil.

"We are glad that in such a difficult time for Ukraine and Ukrainian business, he chose to rest in Derenivska Kupil. Now the Hollywood actor is preparing for the filming process. What did Jean-Claude do here? Just like every guest who came to Derenivska Kupil, he enjoyed the comfort and tranquility of the arboretum, restored his strength in the Iris Wellness Center, worked out in the gym, drank silicon Derenivska water in the pump room and learned about the centuries-old history of Derenivska Kupil in the History Gallery on the territory of the resort," the complex's Instagram reads.

The actor also met with Ukrainian soldiers. In the video distributed on social networks, Jean-Claude Van Damme stands surrounded by our military and shouts, "Glory to Ukraine!". Presumably, the video was shot at one of the border checkpoints.

Jean-Claude Van Damme has been dating Ukrainian Alyona Kaverina for more than 11 years. However, the famous actor is officially married to bodybuilder Gladys Portugues. The couple has been married for 23 years. Despite this, the actor has repeatedly visited Kaverina in Ukraine. In 2020, they flew to Kyiv, where the star starred in the Netflix series The Last Mercenary.

In 2010, in an interview with the Segodnya program, Van Damme spoke about his friendship with Vladimir Putin and his admiration for the Russian president. It is unknown whether the Hollywood actor's attitude to the head of the terrorist country has changed.
