The 79-year-old actor has oldest son Raphael, 46, with ex-wife Diahnne Abbott and adopted daughter Drena, 51, who is Abbott’s daughter from a previous relationship. He and Abbott divorced in 1988 after12 years together.
Afterwards, he was in a relationship with model Toukie Smith between 1988 and 1996. The couple share twin sons, Julian and Aaron, 27, who were conceived by in vitro fertilization and delivered by a surrogate mother. De Niro then shares two children with Grace Hightower, who he married in 1997, Elliot, 25, and Helen, 11.
De Niro recently caused a stir when he revealed he had welcomed another child into the world and he has insisted he is “good” with raising a baby again so much later in life.
Asked if he is excited about being a dad again, he told Extra: “I’m ok with it. I’m good with it.”
And pressed on if it gets easier the seventh time around, he quipped: “Never gets easier”.

The Meet the Parents actor hadn’t disclosed the mother of his seventh child but his About My Father co-star Kim Cattrall has seemingly confirmed her to be the screen legend’s rumoured love interest Tiffany Chen.
She said: “God bless him, his significant other. Tiffany is such a beautiful woman. She came to the set once with her family and watched filming, and she was gorgeous and sweet. I’m happy for both of them.”
