Alyn, Robert de Niro’s daughter, recently released as a transgender.
The Oscars winner, in an interview with Entertainment tonight, threw his weight behind her child’s decision.
“As long as they do not hurt themselves, doing everything that is destructive or something like that, you have to support them. Period,” he said.
The 29 -year -old woman previously revealed her identity as a trans woman in an interview with them.
At the time, the actor of the godfather shared a message of full support to his daughter by saying: “I loved and supported Aaron as my son, and now I like and support Airyn as my daughter. I don’t know what the big problem is. I love all my children. “
Robert’s constant support was visible in the interview with Airyn when she said: “Obviously, no parent is perfect, but I am grateful that my two parents agreed to keep me out of the spotlight. They wanted it very private. ”
“They told me that they wanted me to have as much normal childhood as possible,” she concluded.
With Alyn, Robert has six children. He got married twice.
