Jack's Parents Are No Longer Together

Jack is the son of Willem Dafoe and Elizabeth LeCompte. His parents are no longer together. Although they were never married, they were pretty serious about their relationship as they were together for more than two decades. They started seeing each other in 1977 and were together until the same year Rosie O'Donnell married her ex-wife, Kelli Carpenter, i.e., 2004. 

Willem and Elizabeth first met through their common love for theatre. And, they had to go through a bit of an awkward phase at one point. Jack's mother dated a man named, Spalding Gray before Jack's father. And, they all worked together in a theatre. DailyMail has reported that all of them lived together in the loft at that time. 

The reason behind the divorce of Jack parent's had mostly to do with Elizabeth. The Lighthouse actor, Willem has revealed that Jack's mother didn't believe in the concept of marriage as for her it meant owning someone. It's a shame their relationship ended before they could take it to the next level.

Jack is the senior policy and research associate meaning he is involved in research and analysis works. He has kept his work matter out of the media and hence many details on his job remain to be known.

Jack's Father Has Moved On From His Mother

Jack's parents, Willem and Elizabeth broke up a long time back. While his mother has been quiet about her love life, his father has moved on. He is now married to Giada Colagrande. They two exchanged their wedding vows on the same day Ludivine Sagnier gave birth to her daughter Bonnie, i.e., March 25, 2005.

Willem and Giada's marriage was super private as only two people were present at their wedding. Like Jack's mother, Willem's wife is also a director, however, she directs for the big screen. They had met around a year before tying the knot. 

Giada has been making films since the early 2000s. Her husband has also worked with her in some of her movies like Padre, Bob Wilson's Life & Death of Marina Abramovic, and Before It Had A Name.

About Jack's Grandparents

Jack Dafoe's grandparents from his father, Willem's side are William Alfred Dafoe and Muriel Isabel Dafoe. But, the identity of his grandparents from his mother, Elizabeth's side remains to be discovered.

William and Muriel both worked in the field of medicine. Jack's grandmother worked as a nurse whereas, his grandfather was a surgeon as mentioned on Willem's IMDb page. 

Jack's father and grandfather share the same name and it was his father who decided to change the spelling of his name. Jack's grandparents' names from his mother's side may not be known yet. But, we do know what they were like thanks to one of Elizabeth's interviews. 

In the interview, she revealed that her father first worked as a tugboat engineer before working at a rubber boots company. She also didn't have the best relationship with Jack's grandmother.

What Did Jack's Father Teach Him About Love?

At Eternity Gate actor Willem was a good father to Jack and taught him a lot. However, not the case with love. The actor didn't teach and didn't give any relationship advice to his only son. 

The Guardian has reported Willem saying that it would be a kind of brutal thing to give Jack some advice on the opposite sex. He believed that he should be learning about these kinds of stuff himself. Aquaman actor, Willem wanted Jack to figure it out by himself because that way would be better for him.
