North Korean leader Kim Jong-un has a baby daughter called Ju-ae, Dennis Rodman says.
Dennis Rodman, who was in North Korea last week on a “basketball diplomacy tour”, made the comments in an interview with The Guardian newspaper.
He said that he spent time with Kim Jong-un’s family by the sea, and described him as “a good dad”.
Kim Jong-un leads one of the most secretive countries in the world, with relatively little known about his personal life.
“The Marshal Kim and I had a relaxing time by the sea with his family,” Dennis Rodman said.

“I held their baby Ju-ae and spoke with [Kim Jong-un’s wife] as well. He’s a good dad and has a beautiful family,” he said.
Last year, photos of Ri Sol-ju, Kim Jong-un’s wife, prompted speculation that she was pregnant, although there was no official confirmation.
North Korea only confirmed Ri Sol-ju was Kim Jong-un’s wife in July 2012, a month after she was first seen in public with him.
Dennis Rodman, who has visited North Korea twice this year, remains the most high-profile American to meet Kim Jong-un since the leader took over after his father died in 2011.
Speaking to reporters in Beijing on Saturday, after his return from North Korea, Dennis Rodman angrily rejected calls to lobby for the release of American citizen Kenneth Bae detained in North Korea.
“That’s not my job to ask about Kenneth Bae,” he said.
Kenneth Bae (known in North Korea as Pae Jun-ho) was arrested in November 2012 and sentenced to 15 years’ hard labor in May.
Last month, North Korea revoked an invitation for Robert King, the US special envoy for North Korean rights, to visit Pyongyang to discuss the case.
The first photo of North West, Kim Kardashian and Kanye West’s baby daughter, was finally revealed on Friday during an interview with the rapper on Kris Jenner’s chat show.
And it appears the tiny girl possesses both her mother and father’s looks.
With her almond-shaped eyes, full head of hair and full pout, little North West looks very similar to Kim Kardashian when she was a baby.
Kim Kardashian and Kanye West’s baby girl also has predominant cheeks, similar to her father.
In his highly-publicized sit down with Kris Jenner, Kanye West said: “I pray that she looks like her mother when she’s older.”
However, Kris Jenner told the rapper that she thought North West was the perfect combination of both Kim Kardashian and Kanye West.

“I think she is an amazing combination of the two of you. She is so adorable. She has Kim’s eyes, I think she has your cheeks and both of your lips. Some days she has your lips and some days she has Kim’s lips,” Kris Jenner gushed.
“They dissect her,” the chat host and North West’s grandmother explained to the audience.
“Kim would go <<Look at her ears mom, look at her ears!>>. It is so cute how obsessed you guys are.”
Whether or not she looks more like her mother or her father, there is no doubt that Kim Kardashian and Kanye West’s little cherub shares the same strong genes as the rest of the Kardashian clan.
Dark hair and almond-shaped eyes is a feature that is predominant in many members of the famous family.
Sisters Kim, Kourtney and Khloe Kardashian all have flowing brunette tresses, brown eyes and long eye lashes.
Kourtney Kardashian’s three-year-old son Mason whom she shares with partner Scott Disick, also possesses strong Kardashian genes, however her one-year-old daughter Penelope looks a little more like her father with her fairer hair and facial features.
Meanwhile, a flashback to baby pictures of Kim Kardashian and Kanye West show the now famous identities looking just as cute as their daughter North.

Penelope Cruz has welcomed her second child – a baby daughter – on the same day as the Royal baby.
Penelope Cruz, 39, already has a two-year-old son, Leonardo, with husband Javier Bardem.
Penelope Cruz has welcomed her second child, a baby daughter
While the Royals are expected to let the public know about their child, Penelope Cruz and Javier Bardem are notoriously private and kept the details of their first child under wraps as long as possible.
Penelope Cruz recently said of her children: “I want my son and my kids – if I have more – to grow up in a way that is as anonymous as possible. The fact that his father and I have chosen to do the work we do doesn’t give anybody the right to invade our privacy.”
The actress was last seen just a couple of days ago when she looked ready to pop.
On Saturday she even attended a concert in Madrid despite looking heavily pregnant and so close to her due date.
Ahead of the gig Penelope Cruz was seen walking along with Javier Bardem as they headed for a bite to eat while her huge bump hung over her jeans.
The actress, who was thought to be due to give birth back in June, then looked as if she was ready to welcome her second child at any moment as her stomach swelled against her T-shirt at the Los Veranos de la Villa Music Festival.
Penelope Cruz and husband Javier Bardem – who had been friends for years – started dating in 2007 and married in early July 2010 in an intimate ceremony at a friend’s home in the Bahamas.
Kim Kardashian has apparently made her first public appearance after the birth of her daughter North West.
Kim Kardashian, 32, had been keeping a low profile over the last month while she settled into motherhood with baby North West, who she gave birth to on June 15.
She was allegedly spotted as she tried to travel incognito in her nanny’s car in Southern California.
An onlooker told Radar Online: “Kim looks amazing, she really does. She’s dropped a lot of the baby weight already.

“Not to say she still doesn’t have a ways to go, but she looked slim and was glowing.”
Kim Kardashian and boyfriend Kanye West are yet to give the world a first glimpse of their baby daughter North and the star made sure no one caught a peek during the outing.
The source continued: “As for the baby, Kim and her helper kept a blanket over North’s car seat so nobody could catch a glimpse.”
Kim Kardashian’s outing is the first time she has been spotted in public since giving birth to baby North prematurely, but reports suggest the normally publicity eager star has been getting claustrophobic at home.
A source said: “Kim is excited to have the whole world see her baby, she is saying that she knows that everyone will love her as much as she does and she wants people to see how beautiful she is.”
It was not, however, little North West’s first reported outing.
It was claimed earlier this month that Kim Kardashian took her newborn to stepfather Bruce Jenner’s Malibu beach house where he was hosting a family Fourth of July party.
The world is waiting with bated breath for Kim Kardashian to be photographed with her youngster for the first time, after they were released from hospital together on June 21.
Rumors that Kim Kardashian’s baby daughter North West would make her big debut on her grandmother Kris Jenner’s upcoming self-titled talk show Kris were shot down last week.
However, in a new interview on the Today Show with Matt Lauer on Monday morning, Kris Jenner revealed that it still may be on the cards.
Kris Jenner, 57, hinted that either pictures of her three-week-old granddaughter North may be shown on her show or perhaps the newborn, her mother Kim Kardashian and father Kanye West would do an on-air appearance.
When asked flat out by Matt Lauer if baby North would make her big debut on her show, Kris Jenner laughed: “Well, that’s ambitious. I think you’re just going to have to wait and see and tune in because I am not sure if that is going to happen.”
When Matt Lauer pressed even further, Kris Jenner could not contain her coy smile.
Kris Jenner hinted that either pictures of her three-week-old granddaughter North may be shown on her show or perhaps the newborn
“Tell me right now it will not happen, you WILL NOT be showing first-time baby photos the first week of your show,” he challenged.
“I won’t tell you it won’t happen,” Kris Jenner replied.
“Give you a little something to think about. You never know who is going to show up.”
In the meantime, Kris Jenner gave Matt Lauer his very own sneak peek at baby North West by showing him a picture of the tiny tot on her iPhone.
During her appearance on The Today Show, Kris Jenner also revealed her plans to have a different famous co-host each week on her new programme, including the likes of P. Diddy, Maria Menounos and Nene Leakes.
Kris Jenner’s hints about baby North West’s long awaited debut come after it was reported that Kim Kardashian was planning to sell the first picture of her and Kanye West’s daughter to a magazine after considering a $2 million dollar offer – which she plans to donate to charity.
According to TMZ, Kim Kardashian had turned down the idea of appearing on her mother’s show in favour of a shoot.
Kris Jenner’s long awaited show will debut on July 15th, so it’s not too surprising that the momager wanted a big splash to open with, particularly after promising lots of content from her family.
The website claimed that Kim Kardashian, 32, had not yet decided on an offer but was offered a whopping $2 million from one magazine.
It was thought that Kanye West was the one behind the decision as he is believed to be keen to maintain some level of privacy for their daughter.
It’s thought little North West also won’t feature on the next season of Keep Up With The Kardashians, which is no doubt set to cause cracks within the family.
The first picture of Kim Kardashian since she gave birth emerged at the end of last month on Khloe Kardashian’s Facebook page.

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West apparently took a step towards independence on July Fourth by toting their baby daughter North to a fun family party.
The party was at Bruce Jenner’s summer rental in Malibu, thrown on July 4th so the family could watch the public fireworks from their home.
It was apparently North West’s first family outing, according to Us Weekly.
North West, born five weeks early, left hospital June 21.

Party photos from that weekend show Kendall and Kylie Jenner playing by the water and hanging on the balcony with Kylie’s rumoured boyfriend, actor Jaden Smith.
Another source told the magazine Kim Kardashian, 32, and Kanye West, 36, are having a great time cooing over their daughter.
“They are both so in love with their little girl,” said the source.
Apparently Kanye West “doesn’t leave North for more than an hour”.
Kim Kardashian and Kanye West, who have been dating for almost two years, have not detailed any plans for a wedding.
Kim Kardashian is reportedly planning to sell the first picture of her and Kanye West’s baby to a magazine after considering a $2 million dollar offer – which she plans to donate to charity.
The news is unlikely to go down well with Kris Jenner who had reportedly been hoping to unveil the baby on her chat show in order to boost her ratings.

Meanwhile Kim Kardashian’s trainer Tracy Anderson has hinted that the reality star has lost some of her famous vanity now she is a new mother.
“From our talks during her pregnancy, I thought she was going to be really concerned [about her weight] once the baby was out, but she’s not,” said trainer Tracy Anderson.
Speaking to UsWeekly, she said: “It’s a tough time, and a lot of women feel like it’s a huge mountain to climb to get back.
“But Kim, surprisingly, has had the total opposite reaction [than] other moms.”
“She’s like, <<We’re going to be so good. It’s fun, I feel great!>>. She just loves the whole process.”
Tracy Anderson also revealed that Kim Kardashian is in “baby heaven” before adding: “She’s excited to get started, but she’s really calm about it all.”
Kim Kardashian is reportedly breastfeeding constantly baby daughter North West.
Kim Kardashian, 32, and Kanye West, 36, are ensconced in Kris Jenner’s six-bedroom Hidden Hills, California, mansion after making a middle-of-the-night escape from the Cedars-Sinai hospital on Friday.
While the first-time parents are spending every second with North – affectionately known as Nori – they have also employed the services of a 24/7 nurse, according Us Weekly.
“Kim can’t believe how maternal she is on her own,” a source told the publication, adding: “She is breastfeeding constantly… [it] is working for her and she already feels she has bonded with Nori.”
Kim Kardashian’s friend and Pussycat Doll founder Robin Antin told Us Weekly: “When I walked in to see her, Kim was holding the baby. I said: <<Oh my God, you’re a natural>>. Kim said: <<I know – it’s so weird>>.”
Kim Kardashian and Kanye West are taking well to parenthood as they spend their first week home with baby North
Apparently Kim Kardashian’s sister Kourtney – mother to Mason and Penelope – was a driving force behind Kim’s decision to breastfeed, according to Life & Style magazine.
“[Kim Kardashian] wasn’t going to, but Kourtney is a huge proponent of breastfeeding,” an insider told the publication.
“Kourtney also told [Kim] how much [breastfeeding] helped her lose the baby weight,” after she breastfed son Mason, aged three, for 14 months, and plans to not wean Penelope, who is almost one-year-old, for another year.
Baby North has even brought her lofty father Kanye West, 36, down to earth, with the birth having been a very emotional experience for him.
North West was born five weeks early, weighing in at 4 lbs 15oz on June 15.
Understandably Kanye West is feeling renewed heartache over the loss of his mother Donda who died aged 58 in 2007.
“It’s made him miss his mom very much,” the insider went on.
“He wishes she could see his beautiful baby girl.”
Kanye West, whose new album Yeezus shot to the top of the Billboard 200 chart this week after sales of 327,000 copies in its first week, is also learning how to swaddle, with mixed reports about whether he is getting stuck in on diaper duty.
“The rapper has been changing diapers,” according to People, although Us Weekly reports he has drawn the line at this task.
Kim Kardashian and Kanye West are staying with her mother Kris Jenner, 57, step father Bruce, 63, and her half sisters Kendall, 17, and Kylie, 15.
Her siblings Kourtney, 34, and Khloe, 29, are also regular visitors and “everybody’s trying to help”.
Kris Jenner has been making Kim Kardashian’s favorite foods, including French toast, while at the same time spending time in their Malibu holiday home to give the new parents some privacy, Us Weekly reports.
And on Tuesday Kris Jenner was in New York for a TV appearance.
The magazine claims that Kim Kardashian and Kanye West will soon be moving out into rented accommodation while renovations on their $9 million, 9,000-sq-ft home in Bell Air, Los Angeles, continue.
It has also been reported that Kanye West proposed to Kim Kardashian days after North arrived.
Kim Kardashian and Kanye West are said to be planning a September wedding in Paris, The Sun reports.
Brody Jenner is in no rush to meet Kim Kardashian’s baby daughter – or even learn her name.
In fact, Brody Jenner, 29, feels “there is too much responsibility” in being trusted with the name, as he would be sure to let the secret out.
Brody Jenner says there is too much responsibility in being trusted with Kim Kardashian’s baby name
He told Ryan Seacrest that he’s trying to be sensitive to Kim Kardashian after she went into labor five weeks ahead of her due date.
Brody Jenner explained: “It’s so new.
“So I’m going to give her some time and then as soon as she’s ready, I’ll come see her.”
While rumors abound about the name of his new niece, with Kim Kardashian said to be seriously considering both North and Kaidence as possible titles for her child, Brody Jenner claims ignorance.
He admitted: “I don’t want to know!”
Adding light-heartedly: “There is too much responsibility, don’t tell me!”
According to reports, Kim Kardashian can’t wait to get back in the gym and regain her slim figure after giving birth to her baby daughter.
“She’s already looking ahead to when she can exercise again,” a source told Us Weekly.
Another added: “She really wants to get back into shape. It’s important to her.”
Kim Kardashian, 32, was working with trainer to the stars Tracy Anderson throughout her pregnancy, but the publication also claims she is considering hiring Gunnar Peterson.
Gunnar Peterson is responsible for helping Kim Kardashian’s younger sister Khloe, 28, with her recent 25 lbs weight loss.
While she is not able to start exercising just yet, Kim Kardashian is allegedly already watching what she eats.
The magazine claims that the reality star’s hospital room is chock-a-block with flowers but she has insisted well-wishers are not allowed to bring any tasty treats for her to eat.
“She has over 30 bouquets from loved ones,” a source said.
“She told everyone not to bring sweets – she said she doesn’t need any temptations.”

It is believed that Kim Kardashian and her daughter, whose name is yet to be revealed, will stay in hospital until the baby, who was born five weeks prematurely, reaches five pounds.
While Kim Kardashian and the little one are getting some rest, the baby’s father Kanye West has apparently been hard at work.
The rapper’s creative juices have been flowing since he welcomed his daughter into the world.
“He’s been really inspired by the birth,” a source told Life & Style.
“He’s written four songs already.”
The insider added that while Kanye West, whose album Yeezus was released on Tuesday, has been busy with his music, he has also been very attentive to his two girls.
“Kanye is actually really being good right now,” the source said.
Kim Kardashian is unsurprisingly enamored with her child and gushed to a friend that the little one “is so cute and sweet”, according to Us Weekly.
But she had a stressful time during the birth over the weekend.
Warned by doctors that she was most likely suffering from the life-threatening condition preeclampsia, Kim Kardashian was forced to deal with going into premature labor on Friday night to save the life of her baby girl.
In the few days before Kim Kardashian was rushed to hospital with suspected preeclampsia, she relaxed in Los Angeles sunshine.
The 32-year-old reality star looked beautiful as she showed off her expectant form in a pretty bikini while relaxing by a pool with friends.

Kim Kardashian gained a substantial amount of weight during her pregnancy and she is apparently already trying to shift those pounds.
NFL star Reggie Bush celebrated his first Father’s Day and shared a picture of his month-old baby daughter Briseis.
Kim Kardashian’s former boyfriend posted an adorable Father’s Day image of him holding his tiny daughter via Instagram on Sunday.
The delighted father wrote: “Enjoying my first Father’s Day with my family! #blessed.”

Baby Briseis was born on May 6 weighing in at a healthy eight pounds and nine ounces and clearly she is thriving with her mop of dark hair.
“I look at Briseis and I can’t believe that she is mine. There’s still that element of I can’t believe this came from me,” he told Us Weekly after her birth.
Reggie Bush, 28, famously dated Kim Kardashian on and off for several years before finally calling time on their relationship on March 2010.
The Detroit Lions running back has been dating 25-year-old dancer Lilit – who looks strikingly like Kim Kardashian – for around 19 months now.
Both Lilit and Kim Kardashian are of Armenian heritage and share beautiful long dark hair and curvaceous figures.
Reggie Bush confirmed Lilit was pregnant in October 2012, just two months before Kim Kardashian, 32, announced that she was pregnant with her superstar boyfriend rapper Kanye West.
Kim Kardashian and Kanye West’s new baby daughter is said to pay a strong resemblance to her striking brunette mother and looks less like her rapper father.
A source close to the couple has revealed that the little girl is truly a Kardashian Mini-Me.
“She has dark hair,” the source revealed to E News.

“She looks just like Kim.”
The news of the baby bearing a striking resemblance to Kim will no doubt delight the Kardashian clan and their army of fans around the world.
Kim Kardashian and Kanye West’s baby weighed in at just “under five pounds” at Cedars Sinai Hospital in Los Angeles this morning and was almost one month premature.
It’s understood that the little girl is perfectly healthy but that no name has been released yet although the same source confirmed to E that it will start with a K.
The baby was delivered at the same hospital where her sister Kourtney Kardashian and her partner Scott Disick had their two children Penelope and Mason.
Proud father Kanye West, who skipped out on a listening party for his latest album in Los Angeles on Friday, was at Kim Kardashian’s side during the birth when the baby was delivered naturally and without any complications.
An insider told UsMagazine.com that Kanye West wouldn’t have missed the arrival of their first child for anything, saying: “Of course, Kanye was there with Kim when she went to the hospital and had the baby.
“She started to feel sick late last night [Friday] and was having contractions.”
Momager Kris Jenner planned to have Kim Kardashian and Kanye West move into her Calabasas mansion after the birth of their first child, but they have a secret hotel already lined up.
In an interview to promote Kris Jenner’s new chat show, Kim Kardashian revealed: “We have a hotel that she does not know about yet.”
During the far-ranging chat with The Hollywood Reporter Kris Jenner apparently confirmed that Kim Kardashian and Kanye West would be moving in with her.
This comes despite the fact that publicity-shy Kanye West reportedly refused the invitation, with a source telling HollywoodLife.com he wasn’t “trying to impose on nobody”.
Kanye west, 36, has already moved out of his Hollywood Hills home while Kim Kardashian has sold her Beverly Hills mansion.
With the couple’s new $9 million Bel Air mansion still undergoing construction, Kris Jenner kindly offered to open the doors of her own home in their hour of need.
Kim Kardashian and Kanye West have a secret hotel lined up for the birth of their first child
But although it would make perfect sense for Kim Kardashian to be beside her mother after giving birth it now looks like the couple may want their own privacy too.
Maybe, their “secret hotel” is a back-up plan in case they want a break from Kris Jenner and to spend some “quality time” alone.
Whatever the case somebody better tell the Kardashian matriarch because she likes to know what all her family are doing so that she can plan her own busy schedule around them.
Kris Jenner’s huge mansion certainly has plenty of room to house the couple and their baby daughter when she finally arrives.
The 8,860 sq ft Tuscan mansion – which Kris and her husband Bruce Jenner bought for $4 million in 2010 – has six bedrooms, eight bathrooms plus a huge entry with double staircases, wet-bar, spa, steam, gym and a master suite with fireplace.
There are also three suites downstairs an office and three additional family suites upstairs that Kim Kardashian and Kanye West could easily convert into a nursery for their daughter.
Drew Barrymore has intoduced baby daughter Olive to the world on the cover of People magazine.
In an accompanying interview with People magazine, Drew Barrymore, 37, said she was not prepared for how much her life would change once she had a baby.
The actress said: “I couldn’t eat or sleep for two weeks, I was just so nervous! You have the highest highs and yet you’re facing the biggest fear of, <<How do I keep someone alive?>>”
But with the help of her husband Will Kopelman, Drew Barrymore was able to provide a loving and nurturing home for her baby to be brought into.
She added: “I really wanted a wonderful traditional home for my kid. Will comes from a strong family, he provides a strong family … It just makes me so emotional because it’s like a miracle.”
Drew Barrymore recently revealed the meaning behind Olive’s name, telling Ellen DeGeneres during an interview that she and Will Kopelman came up with the name after reading a baby manual.

Bruce Willis became a father for the fourth time just a few weeks ago and his wife Emma Heming has given his fans a first glimpse of their baby daughter Mabel Ray.
Emma Heming has posted an adorable photo on Twitter of Bruce Willis cuddling little Mabel Ray in his arms.
Bruce Willis, 57, can be seen cradling his youngest girl and tenderly kissing her forehead as they enjoy a family break in Budapest.
Emma Heming wrote: “A beautiful day in Budapest with the loves of my life. Daddy and Mabel cracking each other up.”

Bruce Willis looked equally happy as he smiled while putting his lips on her head.
Emma Heming, his second wife, gave birth to Mabel Ray on April Fool’s Day.
The name is said to be a shortened form of Amabel, deriving from the French phrase “ma belle”, otherwise known as “my lovely girl”.
Bruce Willis also has three grown up daughters from his previous marriage to Demi Moore.
Rumer Willis, 23, is perhaps the most well known of the trio, having secured silver screen roles in The House Bunny and Wild Cherry, along with her recurring television part as Gia in series two of 90210.
Bruce Willis and Demi Moore are also parents to Scout, 20, and Tallulah Belle, 18.
The actor married Emma Heming, 33, three years ago, with his daughters and ex-wife attending the intimate wedding in Turks and Caicos.
Yasmin Chaudhry, a young mother from Norway, drowned her baby daughter in a bucket while her boyfriend watched live on Skype.
Yasmin Chaudhry, 26, killed the one-year-old girl by plunging her into a bucket of water during a 3:00 a.m. Skype video call with her British partner.
The mother said she had just wanted to discipline her baby for waking up and “disobeying her”.
Yasmin Chaudhry called an ambulance and initially told paramedics that the baby had fallen into the bucket by accident.
The little girl was unconscious when the paramedics arrived and was pronounced dead the next day, in October 2010.
Yasmin Chaudhry was initially arrested on suspicion of negligence because of inconsistencies in the stories she gave to police and the paramedics, but is now facing a preliminary charge of murder.
“This has been a long investigation and she eventually admitted it to us in October 2011,” said Norwegian police prosecutor Kristin Rusdal.
“She said it was done to discipline the child. She had been holding her under water.
“She had discussed the discipline with this friend, with whom she had a relationship. They met online and had met in person only once.”
Yasmin Chaudhry claimed that her boyfriend – who is not the child’s father – told her to do it.
Both of them deny wanting to kill the baby.
The British man has not yet been named because his name does not appear in any of the court documents published in Norway.
Kristin Rusdal confirmed a preliminary murder charge had been filed against the British man and said police were discussing extradition.
Officers from Oslo flew to UK just before Christmas to question the boyfriend with the help of Scotland Yard.
“We could issue a formal request to the British authorities to see if they wan to investigate the case, but because it is so closely tied to our investigation we would like to see them together,” said Kristin Rusdal.
Yasmin Chaudhry’s five-year-old son was taken into care following the horrific episode in October 2010.
Yesterday, Yasmin Chaudhry was remanded until February 4.
The baby’s father now lives in Pakistan after splitting with the mother.
Yasmin Chaudhry’s lawyer said: “He is, of course, very shocked.”
Robert de Niro and his wife Grace Hightower De Niro, 56, welcomed a baby daughter through a surrogate mother, Entertainment Tonight reports.
The baby, whom they’ve named Helen Grace Hightower, weighed in at 7 pounds, 2 ounces.
Robert de Niro and Grace Hightower also have a 13-year-old son, Elliot.
The Oscar-winner has four other children – daughter Drena, 40, and son Raphael, 35, with former wife Diahnne Abbott, as well as 16-year-old twin sons Julian and Aaron, born via surrogate with ex-girlfriend Toukie Smith.
Robert de Niro and his wife Grace Hightower De Niro welcomed a baby daughter through a surrogate mother
Robert de Niro and Grace Hightower have been married for almost 14 years but are rarely photographed together, choosing to keep their relationship out of the spotlight.
They met in 1987 and married ten years later.
After hitting a rough patch, Robert de Niro and Grace Hightower managed to reconcile and renew their vows in front of friends and family at a romantic ceremony back in 2004.
The couple’s early marital troubles played out on a public scale, with a 1999 divorce filing by Robert De Niro and a 2001 custody case over their son Elliot.
But after their second set of vows, the couple became resolutely private about their renewed relationship.
They’ve been solid ever since, and the actor is a devoted father to all this children.
Robert de Niro said: “One of the most important lessons I’ve learned in my years as a father is to keep the lines of communication open with my kids.
“I have five of them, ranging in age from 14 to their 30s, by three mothers, so I guess you could call it a fractionalized family of sorts.”
“But I care deeply about all of them, and I have made a conscious effort to talk to and to listen to them.
“Sometimes it’s hard to talk to kids, especially when they’re teenagers.
They’re in their own world, and they don’t look like they’re even listening to you.
“But that’s the time when it’s most important to find a way to talk to them – not to lecture them, but to tell them things I think are important for them to know.”
