The actor is father to six other children who range in age from 11 to 51 years old. He only broke the news while speaking to Entertainment Tonight Canada about his recently released family-focused film, About My Father.
When ET Canada’s Brittnee Blair mentioned De Niro’s six children, the two-time Oscar winner corrected her, saying: “Seven, actually. I just had a baby.”
Before the admission, De Niro spoke more generally about his experience of fatherhood, telling the outlet that he toes the line between being “loving” and “stern”.
“There’s no way around it with kids,” the Oscar-winning actor said, on air last month. “I don’t like to have to lay down the law and stuff like that. But, you just have no choice.
“Any parent, I think, would say the same thing. You always want to do the right thing by the children and give them the benefit of the doubt but sometimes you can’t.”
So, here’s everything you need to know about De Niro’s seven children – and the five decades between them.
