Prince Laurent of Belgium has officially acknowledged Clément Vandenkerckhove as his son, making him a prince of Belgium. The 26-year-old, born out of wedlock to Belgian singer Wendy Van Wanten, was recognized by Prince Laurent in February 2025. While this grants Clément the title of prince and inheritance rights within the family, he will not receive a royal allowance or succession rights, nor participate in public royal events.
