Robert De Niro becomes a father at 79. Welcomes seventh child

When Robert De Niro was asked about his six children, the actor said, “Seven, actually.” He went on to say, “I just had a baby.”

However, he did not share details about his seventh child or the child’s mother. In the same interview, De Niro said that he doesn’t think he’s a cool dad. He also said that while he doesn’t like having strict rules for his kids, he is sometimes left with no choice.

Later, De Niro’s management confirmed that the actor has indeed welcomed a seventh child. The actor’s eldest child is 51 years old. He married Diahnne Abbott from 1976 to 1988 and they had two kids – Drena and Raphael. In 1995 he had twins – Aaron and Julian with his then-girlfriend Toukie Smith. He had his son and daughter Elliot and Helen Grace with ex-wife Grace Hightower.

Robert De Niro was last seen in Savage Salvation. He will next be seen in Killers of the Flower Moon and About My Father, among other projects.
