Al Pacino, 83, was astounded by the recent revelation that he is due to become a father again, prompting him to request a DNA test from his partner, Noor Alfalla, to confirm his paternity.
As a man who’s witnessed many unexpected moments throughout his illustrious career, Pacino braces himself for another: welcoming his fourth child and his second in recent years.
News of his impending fatherhood broke a few months back when Alfalla, 29, divulged the secret. TMZ reports that Pacino, having faced health issues previously, believed he could no longer conceive. However, DNA tests confirmed that he is indeed the father of Alfalla’s baby. Alfalla is no stranger to high-profile relationships, having previously been linked with Mick Jagger and Clint Eastwood.
In another surprising twist, Pacino’s friend, Robert DeNiro, also revealed he’s expecting a child with his girlfriend, Tiffany Chen. DeNiro met Chen, a martial artist, on the set of one of his films, where she coordinated fight scenes.
According to The Sun, DeNiro cheekily hinted at future playdates for his and Pacino’s offspring. When asked about the possibility, DeNiro replied, “Good question,” before jesting about “Floor Play.” Then, responding to queries about diaper duties, the actor joked, “Not quite yet, but I am getting there.”
