Jack Nicholson siblings: Are June and Lorraine his real sisters?

No, June and Lorraine are not his real sisters but his mother and aunt. Records had it that, when Jack Nicholson was born, his mother June was then only 17 years old and unmarried, son her parents agreed to raise Nicholson as their child without revealing his true parentage, with June acting as his sister. In 1974, Time magazine researchers learned, and informed Nicholson, that his “sister”, June, was his mother, and his other “sister”, Lorraine, was his aunt. By this time, both his mother and grandmother had died in 1963 and 1970, respectively. On finding out, Nicholson said it was “a pretty dramatic event, but it wasn’t what I’d call traumatizing . I was pretty well psychologically formed”.
