Robert De Niro, 80, gave us a glimpse of his tender side as he snuggled up with his 10-month-old daughter, Gia.

The heartwarming moment, captured in a new snapshot by Page Six, shows the “Goodfellas” legend cradling his little one, gently nuzzling his cheek against her tiny head.

Gia looked absolutely precious, sporting a delighted grin as she rocked an adorable onesie adorned with musical squirrels. “She’s just the sweetest little thing,” De Niro shared in a recent interview with People, his eyes lighting up with paternal pride. Reflecting on the unique dynamics of his large family, the actor chuckled about the unexpected joy of welcoming his seventh child at the age of 79. “The kids find her so amusing. Even the grandkids adore her. She’s like their little aunt—and they’re on the brink of becoming teenagers!” he chuckled.
