5 Celebrities With Rarely-Seen Kids You Possibly Didn’t Know About
Jamie Lee Curtis, Robert De Niro, Kate Hudson, and two other celebrities have children who prefer staying out of the limelight. These children rarely appear in public or with their parents, but there are several pictures of them.
Some celebrities proudly show off their children, but some of their offspring generally prefer staying out of the spotlight, like Robert De Niro’s lesser-known biracial sons. These children are so private and hidden that most people aren’t aware they exist. Here’s what we know about them.
ROBERT DE NIRO HAS LITTLE-KNOWN BIRACIAL TWIN SONS, JULIAN AND AARON
Aside from being one of the most iconic actors ever, Robert De Niro is a proud father to seven children: Drena, Raphael, Aaron, Julian, Elliot, Helen, and Gia. In 1976, he married singer Diahnne Abbot and had his first son, Raphael.

Abbot had a daughter, Drena, from a previous relationship, and the actor adopted her before his separation from the singer in 1988. De Niro later dated African-American model Toukie Smith in the mid-1990s, and although they never got married, they had twins Julian Kendrick and Aaron Henry, via in vitro fertilization (IVF) and surrogacy in October 1995.

Sadly, De Niro and Smith broke up shortly afterward. Their twins, Julian and Aaron, unlike their older siblings, have maintained a laid-back life, regardless of their father’s fame. Still, they might decide to model in the future.

The duo, who turned 28 in March 2023, are relatively private about their lives but have attended red-carpet events with their parents as youngsters and adults. They lead quiet lives. When asked about his kids, De Niro said:
“I love my children, just being with them. [But] It’s not easy. When you have the good moments [though], you forget about the ones that weren’t good.”
