New York-born actor Robert De Niro recently revealed that he welcomed a seventh child, at the age of 79, with his 80th birthday just weeks away.
The Hollywood acting legend recently sat down for an interview where he was asked about what it's like being a father-of-six.
ET Canada's Brittnee Blair was the person grilling the icon, with her saying to the Taxi Driver actor: "I know you have six kids," which then sparked Robert to correct the interviewer.
The Academy Award winner then dropped a total bombshell when he commented: "Seven, actually."
Robert subsequently confirmed: "I just had a baby". However, it remains unclear who Robert has actually welcomed the baby with.

While Travis Bickle is portrayed by Robert in the hit movie, Diahnne played the role of a character who rejected Travis.

Although the Oscar winner and his first wife split in 1988, he maintained a close bond with his adopted daughter.

Both Robert and Toukie kept their relationship out of the public eye, with the model and 227 starlet famously telling The New York Times: "Do you know how to spell private? P-R-I-V-A-T-E.’ And that’s with a capital P," back in 1992.
Toukie's famous quote about privacy came as she grilled by the publication about her love life.
