Robert De Niro talked about how they celebrated his youngest daughter Gia’s first birthday. When someone asked if they had a party for the one-year-old, he told “ET” in an interview, “Yes, she did. She had a little cake. It was very nice and sweet.”
The 80-year-old actor, famous for his roles in movies like “The Godfather Part II” and “Raging Bull,” talked about his youngest child. He said, “Well, she’s pure joy. There’s nothing about her, there’s no judgment, there’s no anything, she just is what she is, and it’s just pure joy, for God’s sakes.”
De Niro had Gia with his girlfriend, Tiffany Chen, in April 2023.
He has seven children altogether. With his first wife, Diahnne Abbott, he has daughter Drena, 52, and son Raphael, 47. In 1995, he had twin sons, Julian and Aaron, now 28, with his former girlfriend, model and actress Toukie Smith. With ex-wife Grace Hightower, he has son Elliot, 26, and daughter Helen Grace, 12.
“I’m an 80-year-old dad, and it’s great,” he told AARP The Magazine in January. “Everything that I’m consumed with or worried about or this and that just goes away when I look at her. So that in itself, is, you know, wondrous.”
