In discussions about his family life with Chen and baby Gia, De Niro acknowledged stepping back from heavy lifting due to his age. He candidly admitted, “I’m there, I support my girlfriend. But she does the work,” emphasizing the importance of having assistance.
De Niro and Chen first became linked in 2021 after meeting on the set of his 2015 film “The Intern.” Their relationship blossomed over the years, leading to the birth of Gia in spring 2023. The veteran actor, known for films like “Killers of the Flower Moon,” was previously married to Diahnne Abbott from 1976 to 1988 and Grace Hightower from 1997 to 2018.
