Channel Nine star tells Robert De Niro to get a vasectomy for Father’s Day
Aussie TV presenter tells ‘irresponsible’ Robert De Niro to have a vasectomy for Father’s Day after the Hollywood star, 79, announced the birth of his seventh child
An Australian TV presenter has urged actor Robert De Niro to have a vasectomy as a ‘Father’s Day gift’ as he prepares to welcome his seventh child at age 79.
In a column for 9HoneyChannel Nine personality Shelly Horton criticized De Niro’s decision to become a father again well into retirement age.
She said it was “irresponsible” for older men to father children because they often die before the child reaches maturity, leaving their younger partners as single mothers.
De Niro’s girlfriend Tiffany Chen is said to be 45 years old.
“It is irresponsible to have children at that age, especially considering that the child will undoubtedly grow up without a father for most of his life,” Horton wrote.

Horton said it’s “incredibly difficult for single moms to raise kids on their own,” and while De Niro may be able to provide financial support, he can’t help but bear the emotional and physical burden of parenthood once he’s dead or dead. ill is.
