Robert De Niro, 82, makes rare red carpet appearance with partner, Tiffany Chen, 46, at Tribeca Film Festival

Robert De Niro and Tiffany Chen posed together at the Tribeca Festival Artists Dinner, presenting a coordinated yet understated sense of elegance. De Niro opted for a classic black blazer layered over a charcoal-gray polo shirt, paired with tailored gray trousers and black shoes, creating a refined and relaxed look. Chen, meanwhile, made a striking statement in an asymmetric black gown featuring dramatic draping and netted cutout detailing along one shoulder and the skirt. She completed the ensemble with small silver hoop earrings, stacked metallic bracelets, and a sleek pulled-back hairstyle, adding a contemporary edge to the evening's sophisticated atmosphere.

Robert De Niro and Tiffany Chen appeared in high spirits as they arrived hand in hand, with Chen beaming broadly while the Oscar-winning actor acknowledged onlookers with a raised hand. The appearance offered another glimpse into the couple's enduring relationship. After first meeting on the set of De Niro's 2015 film 'The Intern,' where she worked as a tai chi instructor, the pair later reconnected and started dating. The pair welcomed daughter Gia in April 2023, who is De Niro's seventh and youngest child.

At 82, De Niro has a 35-year age gap with Chen, 46. However, they never let the age difference affect their relationship and even welcomed a child together in 2023.

The actor also shared a rare insight into fatherhood in a 2023 interview with The Guardian. "It doesn't get easier," the star admitted. "It is what it is. It's OK. I mean, I don't do the heavy lifting. I'm there, I support my girlfriend. But she does the work. And we have help, which is so important." Reflecting on their romance during a 2023 appearance on CBS Mornings, Chen also shared that their relationship developed gradually after reconnecting years later. What began as a professional connection eventually blossomed into something more, with Chen joking that she realized they not only got along, but "really got along."

Robert De Niro and Tiffany Chen were seen sharing a laugh with actress and singer Teyana Taylor during the Tribeca Festival Artists Dinner. The trio appeared in high spirits as they chatted around the table, exchanging smiles and laughter, creating one of the evening's most relaxed and candid moments. Taylor attended this year's festival as a newly appointed member of the Tribeca Through Her Lens Advisory Committee. As part of the program, she also took part in a conversation with director Janicza Bravo focused on female identity, authenticity, and navigating the film industry, further highlighting her growing influence both on and off screen.

Robert De Niro also took the stage during the Tribeca Festival Artists Dinner, addressing guests as one of the festival's co-founders. The actor helped launch the Tribeca Film Festival in the aftermath of the September 11, 2001, attacks, to revitalize lower Manhattan and bring the community together through film and culture. Over two decades later, De Niro remains closely tied to the festival's identity. In 2024, Tribeca celebrated the actor's 80th birthday with a special De Niro Con, featuring screenings, panels, and exhibits dedicated to his acclaimed career and lasting impact on cinema.
