Hollywood icon Robert De Niro, father to six kids between the ages of 11 and 51, has welcomed his seventh child.

De Niro revealed the new addition to his life while promoting his new movie, "About My Father."

When ET Canada's Brittnee Blair mentioned De Niro's six children, the two-time Oscar winner corrected her.

"Seven, actually, I just had a baby," De Niro said.

The 79-year-old actor did not disclose the child's name, gender, or the mother's identity. However, his much younger partner, Tiffany Chen, was photographed with a baby bump last month.

The pair met in 2015 on the set of “The Intern” and were spotted on a trip to Spain the following year.

The actor shares 51-year-old daughter Drena, whom he adopted in 1971 with ex-wife Diahnne Abbott. They also share a son Raphael, 46.

He is also father to twin sons Aaron and Julian, 27, with ex-partner Toukie Smith, as well as son Elliot, 25, and daughter Helen, 11, with ex-wife Grace Hightower — whom he divorced in 2018 after over two decades of marriage.

De Niro is known for such classics as "The Godfather: Part II", "Raging Bull", "Heat", and "Meet the Parents".

In 2011, he was also honored with the Golden Globes’ Cecil B. DeMille Award for his impact on the world of entertainment and awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom five years later.
