Al Pacino follows pal Robert De Niro to become latest star in Celebrity Old Dads’ Club at 83

Al Pacino has joined a group of entertainment industry stars welcoming children with much-younger partners well into their twilight years.

The 83-year-old Academy Award winner already has three adult children, including twins from his six-year relationship with the actress Beverly D’Angelo in the late 1990s and early 2000s.

And now he’ll be a dad four times over when his Noor Alfallah, 29, gives birth.

It was revealed that Alfallah — who previously romanced Rolling Stones singer and fellow old dad Mick Jagger — is already eight months pregnant after Pacino’s representative confirmed the news to TMZ on Tuesday.

The Scarface star is currently the father to three children with two women. In addition to sharing his 22-year-old twins Olivia and Anton James Pacino with D’Angelo, he also shares his 33-year-old daughter Julie Pacino with his ex Jan Tarrant.

ROBERT DE NIRO – 79 

Earlier this month, it was revealed that Robert De Niro — Pacino’s costar in The Godfather Part II, Heat and The Irishman — had become a father again at the ripe age of 79. 

The iconic actor shocked the world when he casually announced he had ‘just had a baby’ in an interview — after his long-term girlfriend Tiffany Chen, who is believed to be 45 — was seen with a baby bump in March.

And despite sending shockwaves around the world with the announcement, older fathers are certainly not a rarity in Hollywood or in the showbiz stratosphere, with ages ranging as high as 89 in The Old Dads’ Club. 

Below are some of the late-career stars who have opted to clean nappies, wipe up drool and sing lullabies as quinquagenarians, sexagenarians, septuagenarians and octogenarians.
