Aside from being a multi-award-winning influential actor, Robert De Niro is an incredibly proud father and grandfather, surrounded by a large brood of children.
Tragically, it was announced today that the heartbroken dad-of-seven has lost his beloved grandson, Leandro De Niro Rodriguez, who died at the age of 19.
His mother, Drena De Diro -the daughter of Robert's ex wife, actress Diahnne Abbott - welcomed her son with then-boyfriend, Carlos Rodriguez, in 2003.
