“But, [sometimes] you just have no choice.
“And any parent, I think, would say the same thing. You always want to do the right thing by the children and give them the benefit of the doubt but sometimes you can’t.”
The interviewer then goes on to ask De Niro about his six children, before he gets corrected by the Casino actor as he says ‘seven actually’.
“I just had a baby,” he adds.
De Niro did not reveal who the mother of his latest baby is.

“I’m happy for both of them.”
Meanwhile, his other co-star, Sebastian Maniscalco, told the outlet that he had no idea De Niro was expecting another child – but congratulated him on the latest addition to the family.
