As a longtime admirer of Robert De Niro’s remarkable career and personal life, I find myself continually inspired by his unwavering zest for life. At 81 years old, he continues to push boundaries and indulge his inner daredevil, which is truly a testament to his spirit. His love for his family, especially his youngest child Gia, shines brightly in every story about him.


Robert De Niro isn’t letting age keep him from indulging his inner daredevil.

Today marks the 81st birthday of the renowned actor from Taxi Driver, and his daughter, Drena De Niro, aged 56, took to social media to share some special photographs in celebration of this momentous occasion.

The first showed him in red-and-blue striped swim trunks jumping off a yacht.

The second was a short video clip that reveals his impact with the water.

As someone who has had the privilege of growing up with a loving and supportive father like mine, I can truly appreciate the heartfelt message in this social media post. The daughter’s affection for her dad shines through in every word, from the multiple hearts to the #1 ride or die hashtag. It’s clear that their bond is unbreakable, a testament to the special relationship between a father and child. I can’t help but smile when I think about the countless memories they’ve created together and the love they continue to share. Here’s to many more years of happiness for this incredible father-daughter duo! #BobbyD forever.

In my latest posts, I’ve been honored to share glimpses into some special moments between my father and my beloved son Leandro throughout his journey.

On July 2, 2023, Leandro was tragically discovered deceased by a friend, seated in a chair within his apartment in New York City, at the tender age of 19.

The medical examiner determined his demise was due to an unintentional overdose from a mix of harmful substances, which included illicit drugs such as fentanyl, bromazolam, alprazolam, 7-aminoclonazepam, ketamine, and cocaine.

Currently, De Niro’s youngest child, Gia, celebrated her first birthday. She shares this toddler with her mother, Tiffany Chen, who is 45 years old.

The Goodfellas star reflected on becoming a father again in his 80s with AARP The Magazine.

‘I’m an 80-year-old dad and it’s great,’ he told the outlet in January. 

When I gaze upon [Gia], all my concerns and preoccupations seem to vanish, creating a sense of awe. Simply put, it’s remarkable.

In a December 2023 interview with Rolling Stone, Robert De Niro shared his plan for actress Gia to become fluent in both English and Chinese.

He mentioned that his child is of mixed Chinese heritage, expressing a desire to instruct her in the Chinese language while also introducing English and Chinese nursery rhymes to her. His goal is to help her become proficient in both languages.

On little Gia’s first birthday celebration in March, I couldn’t help but share – this Academy Award-winning icon let everyone know that our precious angel savored a slice of delicious cake!

‘Well, she’s pure joy,’ De Niro told ET. 

He exclaimed with delight, “She doesn’t elicit any criticism or expectation; she simply embodies herself, and it brings me such unadulterated happiness – truly a blessing!”

Legendary actor Robert De Niro is not just a lone star but also a father to six other children: Drena De Niro (age 56), Raphael De Niro (47), both shared with ex-wife Diahnne Abbott; twin sons Julian De Niro and Aaron De Niro (28) from his relationship with Toukie Smith; and Elliot De Niro (16) and Helen Grace De Niro (12) who he has with ex-wife Grace Hightower.
