Meanwhile, De Niro’s youngest child Gia, recently turned one-year-old. He shares the toddler with his girlfriend Tiffany Chen, 45.

‘I’m an 80-year-old dad and it’s great,’ he told the outlet in January.
‘Everything that I’m consumed with or worried about or this and that just goes away when I look at [Gia]. So that in itself, is, you know, wondrous.’
De Niro, intends for Gia to be bilingual in English and Chinese, he revealed in an interview with Rolling Stone in December 2023.
‘[She is] half-Chinese. I want to try to teach her Chinese and show her nursery rhymes in English and Chinese,’ he told the outlet. ‘I’m trying to have her learn both.’
