Congratulations to Robert DeNiro, the veteran actor revealed that he has welcomed his seventh child at the age of 79. 

While doing an interview, DeNiro announced the shocking news when the interviewer asked about his six children. He quickly corrected the interviewer and said “Seven, actually. I just had a baby.” 

DeNiro has six other children; Drena, 51, Raphael, 46, twin sons Aaron and Julian, 27, Elliot 24, and Helen 11, with three other women, and at the moment there is no word on the baby’s name or the partner who made him a seven-time father. This news comes on the heels of the actor’s latest movie “About My Father”, which is set to premiere on May 26th. 

During the interview, Robert DeNiro revealed that he is not a “cool dad” like his character, Salvo in the movie. “I’m okay. You know, my kids disagree with me at times, and they’re respectful,” he said. 

He continued, “My daughter, she’s 11, she gives me grief sometimes, and I argue with her. I adore her, but, you know. And my youngest now, that’ll be more to come. But that’s what it is.” DeNiro went on to speak about his parenting skills, “You always want to do the right thing by the children and give them the benefit of the doubt, but sometimes, you can’t.” 

How do you feel about Robert DeNiro having another child at the age of 79?
