"The brother of the King of the Belgians has admitted that he had a son before his marriage.

Prince Laurent, younger brother of King Philippe, has confirmed he is the natural father of the son of a Belgian singer, Wendy Van Wanten.

The young man, Clement Vandenkerckhove, was born in 2000. There have been numerous rumours that he is Laurent’s son. Now the prince has confirmed to news agency, Belga, that he is Clement’s father.

The Belgian royal family is yet to comment officially.

Wendy Van Wanten, whose real name is Iris Vandenkerckhove, didn’t speak immediately after the revelation. However, just hours later it was revealed that she and Clement had given a TV interview in which they spoke about the situation. In the programme, by VTM, Clement is seen speaking about his uncle being the King of the Belgians.
