De Niro revealed for the first time that he recently welcomed a seventh baby during an interview with ET Canada when the interviewer asked De Niro about his six children and he corrected them by saying he actually has "seven."
"I just had a baby," he shared, although he did not provide further details about the newest member of the family at that time.
De Niro has six children from previous relationships. The actor and his first wife, Diahnne Abbott, are parents to a 51-year-old daughter, Drena, and a 46-year-old son, Raphael.
In 1995, he welcomed twins Julian and Aaron, who are now 27, with his ex-girlfriend, model and actress Toukie Smith. De Niro also shares a 24-year-old son, Elliot, and an 11-year-old daughter, Helen, with Grace Hightower.
