Actor Robert De Niro raves about his youngest daughter Gia Virginia. "She's an adorable baby," the 80-year-old told the US magazine People. When he looks at the ten-month-old girl, he forgets everything around him. "So it's a great joy just to be with her in this moment."
De Niro's girlfriend, 45-year-old Tiffany Chen, gave birth to Gia last April. The two-time Oscar winner said his other six children were “all very excited” about their little sister. Looking at the children of his 47-year-old son Raphael, he added: “Even the grandchildren. She’s their aunt – and they’ll soon be teenagers!”
De Niro is a family man through and through and loves it when they can all get together. "When they're all together," he says, "that's everything for me."
The actor is nominated for another Oscar for his role in the film “Killers of the Flower Moon”.
