Chuck became a father again when he got involved with a woman named Johanna while serving in the US Air Force.
However, he got to know about his daughter Dina Norris years later. In his autobiography, ‘Against All Odds: My Story,’ Chuck wrote, “I didn't need DNA or blood tests.
“I went to her, wrapped my arms around her, and we both started crying. At that moment, it was as if I had known her all my life.”
The ‘Missing in Action’ actor is also a father of twins, whom he had with his second wife, Gena O'Kelley.
Chuck and Gena O'Kelley have been married since 1998. Their two children — Dakota Alan Norris and Danilee Kelly Norris — are into martial arts like their famous father.
‘Proudest parents in the world’
In 2021, ‘The Hitman’ star took to Instagram to share about the twins’ getting 5th Degree Black Belts.

“When our wonderful twins, Dakota and Danilee, got their 5th Degree Black Belts and I put their new uniforms on. They trained very hard to earn their Master Rank and have made Gena and I the proudest parents in the world,” the actor shared.
Chuck added, “I love you both with all my heart. God Bless, Chuck Norris.”
Not just that, Chuck also proudly keeps sharing news about his grandchildren. A 2016 Facebook post showed him posing with his son Eric, his wife, and their kids Chantz, Chloe, and Cash.
