De Niro, 80, and his longtime girlfriend Chen were seen smiling as they walked the red carpet at the Chanel Tribeca Festival's Artist Dinner at The Odeon in New York City on Monday, June 10. The couple held hands as they arrived at the fashion brand's dinner and flashed a wave for photographers outside the event. Blake Lively, Jessica Capshaw, Chloe Fineman, Mark Ronson, Grace Gummer, David Harbour and Lily Allen were among other A-list guests at Chanel's exclusive dinner event.
De Niro, a co-founder of Tribeca Festival, and Chen first met in 2015 and were first publicly romantically linked in August 2021 after they were seen vacationing together in the south of France. The couple share one daughter, Gia Virginia Chen De Niro, 14 months, whom they welcomed on April 6, 2023; Gia is the Ezra star's seventh child.
The Academy Award winner most recently opened up about his experience parenting a young child again during an appearance on the Today show on June 4.
“I always say it’s pure joy. That’s it,” he said at the time, adding that he believes he is an "okay" dad.

"Nothing is perfect in life as we all know, and my older kids, when they're older, they’re more critical," he added. "When they’re young like the baby, that’s pure joy, so I’m enjoying that."
