Robert De Niro shares rare photo of baby daughter
Robert De Niro has shared a rare photo of his adorable 10-month-old daughter Gia, while opening up on their unusual family dynamic for the first time.
The 80-year-old acting legend welcomed baby Gia with his girlfriend Tiffany Chen in 2023, making the adorable infant De Niro's seventh child.
The sweet photo delighted fans, with the picture showing the proud dad cradling his daughter and resting his cheek on her head, while the baby smiles for the camera.
De Niro doted on his daughter in a new interview with People magazine, saying, “She’s such an adorable baby. So sweet.”
The actor also laughed about the unusual dynamic within his family after welcoming his seventh child at age 79.
“The kids all get a big kick out of her. The grandkids even. She’s their aunt — [and] they’re about to be teenagers!” he said.
In addition to Gia, De Niro is also father to Drena, 56, Raphael, 47, twins Julian and Aaron, 28, Elliot, 25, and Helen, 12.
He has four grandchildren, including Drena’s son, Leandro, who tragically died from an accidental overdose in 2023 at the age of 19.
Speaking with AARP in January, De Niro became emotional talking about the newest addition to his family.
“Everything that I’m consumed with or worried about just goes away when I look at her,” he raved. “It’s wondrous.”
He also gave a glimpse into his home life with Chen, 45, and baby Gia while speaking to The Guardian last October.
While addressing his age, he candidly explained that he has stepped back from doing “the heavy lifting.”
“I’m there, I support my girlfriend. But she does the work,” he stated. “And we have help, which is so important.”
