Don’t ask Robert De Niro to change his 5-month-old daughter’s diaper, Gia Virginia. The 80-year-old actor revealed that his partner is doing the “hard work” with the baby. “It doesn’t get any easierhe told the Guardian in an interview published last Sunday when asked about being a father of seven.

“It is what it is. I mean, I don’t do the hard work. I’m there, supporting my friend. But she does the job. And we have help, which is so important“, added the famous actor, referring to his 45-year-old partner, Tiffany Chen.

When asked by the reporter if he’s enjoying fatherhood, the ‘Heat’ star replied: “Of course I enjoy it. With a baby things are different. I have my grown children, my grandchildren. Everything is different. I don’t talk to my grown children the way I talk to my baby or the way I talk to my 11-year-old daughter, although she’s pretty smart“, he added.

De Niro and Chen, who were first linked in 2021, welcomed their first child last April. At the time, the two-time divorced Oscar winner was already a father of six children.

However, just three months after Gia’s arrival, the actor suffered a great loss when his grandson, Leandro, passed away. The 19-year-old son of his eldest daughter, Drena, died tragically in July from “toxic” combination of illegal drugsas confirmed by the New York medical examiner.
