LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Oscar winner Robert De Niro is allegedly driving his girlfriend Tiffany Chen crazy with his political tirades as she has to care of their baby on her own.

An insider spilled as reported by RadarOnline.com, “Bob gets agitated so easily at home and evidently, at award shows too, and Tiffany has to deal with it.”

Tiffany Chen’s ‘at a loss over what to do’

“It’s hard for her to live with such a moody person. And his political tirades are driving her crazy,” they claimed.

Niro and Chen share eight-month-old Gia Virginia Chen-De Niro, whom they welcomed in April of this year. But when it comes to sharing the baby’s responsibilities, only the martial arts instructor bears it.

The source reportedly disclosed, “He’s at the computer raging over the politicians while Tiffany’s doing all the housework and taking care of the baby, but she’s at a loss over what to do.”

“Anyone who knows Bob knows you can’t tell him what to do. So, she lets him rant and rave and just tries to zone it out. It’s a tough way to live,” the insider added.

‘The beginning of my speech was edited’

This came as the 80-year-old ‘Taxi Driver’ star attracted controversy for accusing the Gotham Awards ceremony held in November of changing his anti-Trump speech.

He had reportedly said, “I’m going to thank Apple, Gothams, Apple, blah blah blah. But I don’t feel like thanking them at all after what they did. How dare they, actually?

“The beginning of my speech was edited, cut out … and I want to read it. History isn’t history anymore. Truth is not truth. […] Lying has become just another tool in the charlatan’s arsenal.”

‘There was an unfortunate miscommunication’

Later, Martin Scorsese issued a statement trying to clarify the drama.

He shared, “The Gotham Awards honored the filmmakers and cast with The Historical Icon & Creator tribute, which recognizes significant moments in history and for bringing a story to life in an authentic way on screen.”

“We all wanted to make sure that in the limited time available, the acceptance speech had space to acknowledge our Osage collaborators on-stage and at home, as well as our entire cast and filmmaking team. Apple has been a tremendous partner and there was no censorship,” the 81-year-old film producer continued.

Scorsese added, “There was an unfortunate miscommunication regarding the final version of the speech. The event was a beautiful moment for our cast and collaborators to be reunited for the first time since the strikes. It was an incredible honor to receive this recognition.”
