Hollywood actor and filmmaker Lou Diamond Phillips has four children from two of his three marriages, all daughters, and he seems close to all of them, despite the divorce.

Lou began his acting career in the mid-1980s and had a breakthrough appearance when he portrayed Ritchie Valens in the 1987 biographical drama movie "La Bamba." He was nominated for a Golden Globe Award for his performance in "Stand and Deliver" the following year.

Lou has been married thrice, first to filmmaker Julie Cypher from 1987 to 1990. They were together for three years before their split. Their marriage did not welcome any children. Lou then married Kelly Preston in 1994, and they had three children. Later, Lou married Yvonne Boismier, and they had one daughter.

Gracie Phillips and Isabella Phillips Are Lou Diamond Phillips' Twin Daughters

Lou married his second wife, former Penthouse model Preston, on April 24, 1994, four years after divorcing his wife of three years, Cypher. The couple reportedly met three years after the end of his first marriage. They had three daughters together, including twins Gracie and Isabella, in the 11 years of marriage.

Gracie Phillips was born on October 5, 1997, and has established a successful modeling career with over eight years of experience. Top modeling agencies like Next Model Management Miami and One Management have signed her on, and she has worked with high-profile brands, including Pat McGrath and Too Faced Cosmetics.

When Gracie started her journey in the industry, the gorgeous brunette was adamant not to use her famous father's name to get favorable treatment like some fans assumed models like Brooklyn Beckham, Bella Hadid, and Gigi Hadid did to get to the top. Nevertheless, her father is proud of his daughter's achievements.

Gracie's career has continued to grow, with an appearance on the cover of Sports Illustrated coming in December 2020, a dream-come-true moment for the model. A year later, Gracie and her father signed to guest star on Fox's drama, "The Cleaning Lady," the first time the father-daughter duo shared the screen.

Her personal life has also witnessed notable success. The model has been in a relationship with professional baseball player Blake Rutherford since January 2019.

Gracie's twin, Isabella Phillips, also born on October 5, 1997, is a more private figure. Her Instagram is closed to the public, and little information about her is available. She shared her acting projects on Twitter in 2019 but has not been very active on social platforms lately. Isabell is a prominent feature on her celebrity twin's Instagram, though.

Lili Jordan Phillips Is Lou Diamond Phillips' Middle Child

Lou's third daughter with Preston, Lili Jordan Phillips, was born on September 26, 1999. Her older sister, Gracie, shared a special message for her celebrating her 21st birthday in 2020. She said she was proud of her and eagerly anticipated seeing what comes next for her little sister.

She added Lili was wise beyond her age, beautiful inside and out, and a source of constant laughter. The girls appear to have a close relationship, with Gracie calling her sisters her "built in besties." Lili lives in Los Angeles, California, and is dating Kevin, a musician with over 300k Instagram followers.

Unfortunately for the Phillips family, they had to go through a divorce in 2007 after Lou and Preston decided to go their separate ways. The reason for the split was not made public, but the pair agreed to share custody of their three young daughters.

Indigo Sanara Phillips Is the Youngest of Lou Diamond Phillips' Children

Lou, who has been cast in over 50 productions, including an award-winning performance in "Courage Under Fire," alongside Denzel Washington and Meg Ryan, had one more daughter. Indigo Sanara Phillips was born in 2007, the same year Lou finalized his divorce from Preston.

The actor shares Indigo with his third wife, Boismier, a former actress and make-up artist. The pair began dating soon after Lou's separation from Preston, and they did not take long after the divorce to tie the knot, which they did in 2007 as well.

Indigo is her mother's only biological child, while she is her father's fourth. After the birth of Indigo, Boismier's career in the entertainment industry took a back seat, and she put most of her focus on her family.

Boismier, now an Illustrator, resides in New York and Los Angeles with her family, which includes five cats and a dog. Very little information about Indigo is publicly available, and her family is private about her. However, she has occasionally joined her father on the red carpet and at other events.
