Robert De Niro is sharing nothing but “love and support” for his daughter, Airyn De Niro, after she came out as transgender. The two-time Oscar winner shared in a statement to The Hollywood Reporter, “I loved and supported Aaron as my son, and now I love and support Airyn as my daughter. I don’t know what the big deal is. I love all my children.”

The two-time Oscar winner said Airyn De Niro has his "love and support" following her decision to come out as transgender. He has six other children.

Robert De Niro’s daughter has thanked him for being so accepting after she came out as trans. Earlier this week, Airyn De Niro publicly came out as a trans woman in an interview with Them, revealing she began hormone therapy in November 2024.
