A glimpse into Beverly D’Angelo’s personal life! Her late pregnancy, her children, and co-parenting with her ex Al Pacino!
Beverly D’Angelo talks to kids
American actress and singer Beverly D’Angelo, 70 had recently spoken to Closer Weekly. During her interview, Beverly opened up about her life and single parenthood. She expressed that she is extremely happy and does not regret having twins at the ripe age of 49 years.
The actress said:
“I got pregnant at 48, delivered six weeks after I was 49, and by 51 I was looking at a landscape as a single parent.”
Beverly had her twins: Anton James Pacino and Olivia Pacino with actor Al Pacino. Recalling her time with Al Pacino, Beverly went on to say:
“I had a fantasy that when you have kids, you do it in a family setting. After we’d known each other for three months, [Al] looked me in the eyes and said, ‘I want you to be the mother of my children.’ That’s all I had to hear.”

The Co-parenting
When the kids were just two, the couple separated. Her spokesperson had told New York Post at that time:
“Al Pacino is a controlling, harassing man who has never changed a single diaper.”
However, Al Pacino’s side retaliated with:
“Beverly continues to use the kids in a way that almost makes them hostages.”
The result was a nasty custody fight in court. But luckily, sanity dawned over the couple and they decided to resolve their differences for the sake of their children. They now co-parent their kids in a friendly way.
Explaining the whole experience, Beverly said:
“The key thing is creating a new history, and moving on from whatever dissolved that relationship to the new one of co-parenting. The most important thing I’ve learned is how vital acceptance is. We all have a desire to change things that we don’t like, but you can’t change another person. You have to accept differences and all the things that led to a breakup in a way that allows you to move forward. And out of my support system and people I know and love, I’ve created the ideal partner.”
Beverly is also eager to pen her memoir and share her experiences with the world. Beverly said:
“I should write a memoir. I want to, and I’m ready to. And if you could take my life and put it into a role, that would be my dream role!”
