11 Famous Celebrities Who Became Dads in their 60s and 70s!
Apparently, someone made Robert De Niro an offer he couldn’t refuse.
The the Oscar winner, 79, revealed that he’d recently welcomed his seventh child.
A baby. At 79.
De Niro, the tough-guy actor we all know and love, is a dad in his 70s?
It may sound like a ridiculous scenario, but it’s TRUE!
Can you imagine De Niro trying to keep up with a toddler at his age?
He’s known for his intense roles, but how will he handle being chased around by a little one? Perhaps we’ll see him in a new movie called “The Godfather: Part Four – The Diaper Years”.
With De Niro’s legendary reputation, imagine the potential for some hilarious dad jokes. He could be the king of the corny one-liners, giving his child a laugh every time he opens his mouth. Plus, can you imagine the stories he could tell his child about his time in Hollywood? The kid would have the coolest dad at show-and-tell.
He has other children from previous relationships. But this seems a little much, no?
Of course, there are some potential downsides to the idea of De Niro becoming a dad in his 70s. For one, he may not have the energy to keep up with a young child, and there may be some health risks involved. But for the sake of humor, let’s ignore those for now.
While it may seem like a crazy idea, the thought of Robert De Niro siring a child in his 70s is certainly amusing to consider. Who knows, maybe we’ll see him on the cover of “People” magazine with a baby in his arms soon. Or maybe not.
