With movies like Under Siege and his expertise in martial arts, there was a time when Steven Seagal was a prominent Hollywood action star. By pulling in massive box office numbers, the Hard to Kill star was expected to be the next big thing in the 90s. Unfortunately, Seagal’s career fell hard after the actor was embroiled in numerous serious controversies.
While fans often discuss Steven Seagal’s story of rise and fall, a recent video clip on Instagram also portrayed another controversial side of the actor.

The comments section is filled with fans who cannot get over the hilarious claims of the star about his family background.
