Robert De Niro’s had ups and downs this year
It has been a very busy year for the actor both personally and professionally.
He recently starred in the comedy film About My Father and is already gathering awards buzz for his future Martin Scorsese movie Killers of the Flower Moon.
One of the main events that happened to him this year was becoming a dad again at 79. He welcomed his seventh child, a baby girl named Gia Virginia, his first one with his girlfriend Chen.
Chen and Robert first sparked dating rumors with a PDA-filled outing in August 2021.
They initially met years before filming a movie together in 2015. Tiffany who is a martial arts instructor by profession did a small role in The Intern which starred De Niro.
Talking about what she loves about her beau, Chen said in an interview with King, 68,
“How much he loves his family. That might make me a little teary-eyed.”
While this year brought many positive changes in the actor’s life, it was also filled with tragedy with the death of his grandson Leandro De Niro Rodriguez.
Just a few days before the actor’s birthday, Drena celebrated her son’s 20th birthday, who was found dead on July 2 in New York City from an accidental drug overdose.
