These children rarely appear in public or with their parents, but there are several pictures of them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some celebrities proudly show off their children, but some of their offspring generally prefer staying out of the spotlight, like Robert De Niro\u2019s lesser-known biracial sons.

In 1976, he married singer Diahnne Abbot and had his first son, Raphael.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.amomama.com\/1015c09b4d657aa991a87a2ea6d574f39b57717a76521cd642646d6b9fdd8343.jpg\" alt=\"Robert De Niro kisses his wife, Diahann Abbott, on the set of the film &quot;New York, New York&quot; during a location shooting in Los Angeles on April 26, 1977 | Source: Getty Images\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Abbot&nbsp;had a daughter, Drena, from a previous relationship, and the actor adopted her before his separation from the singer in 1988. De Niro later&nbsp;dated African-American model&nbsp;Toukie Smith in the mid-1990s, and although they never got married, they had twins Julian Kendrick and Aaron Henry, via in vitro fertilization (IVF) and surrogacy in October 1995.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.amomama.com\/278d1fbed87ffe6aedcfe85e9433e46f.jpg\" alt=\"Robert De Niro pictured with longtime girlfriend and actress Toukie Smith in 1990 in New York City | Source: Getty Images\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Sadly, De Niro and Smith broke up shortly afterward. Their twins, Julian and Aaron, unlike their older siblings, have maintained a laid-back life, regardless of their father\u2019s fame. Still, they might decide to model in the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.amomama.com\/89c271cc1b3d62a3a39c339345ca9c74f4c2f777981fb1ded93fe319c5305c57.jpg\" alt=\"Toukie Smith and her twin boys Aaron and Julian De Niro, in New York, on November 6, 1998 | Source: Getty Images\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The duo, who turned 28 in March 2023, are relatively private about their lives but have attended red-carpet events with their parents as youngsters and adults. They lead quiet lives. When asked about his kids, De Niro&nbsp;said:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI love my children, just being with them. [But] It\u2019s not easy. When you have the good moments [though], you forget about the ones that weren\u2019t good.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.amomama.com\/11af66f23643c8665c95067376e79c48ddde898e7ecc0ffd3d8f7e4c5300babd.jpg\" alt=\"Robert De Niro and his son Julian De Niro pose backstage at the hit play &quot;Bengal Tiger at the Baghdad Zoo&quot; on Broadway on April 24, 2011, in New York City | Source: Getty Images\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Although he prefers privacy, Julian has an&nbsp;Instagram account with four posts and 1,187 followers, and he\u2019s following 306 accounts. His posts give some insight into his personal life and his adventures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On April 6, 2023, De Niro embraced fatherhood again when he and his girlfriend, Tiffany Chen, welcomed his youngest daughter. The actor, then 79, shared the news about&nbsp;welcoming his seventh baby a month after her birth. But like most of his other children, Gia Virgina Chen-De Niro has been kept out of the public eye.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Shortly after announcing the shocking news of his seventh child\u2019s arrival, his girlfriend was&nbsp;seen holding a child&nbsp;that appeared to be less than a month old. The child was dressed in a pink onesie, and Chen lifted the baby from the stroller she had previously been pushing as they walked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Many wondered if De Niro had planned for the baby, to which he replied affirmatively. During an interview, the interviewer mentioned they knew he had six children, at which point he clarified he had just&nbsp;become a father&nbsp;for the seventh time. When asked if being a parent became more manageable with each child, he confirmed it never did.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.amomama.com\/2116a1a17b779c99506bf63cc78a3e590bb207949f2a6d0ccbf56095843d3a4c.jpg\" alt=\"Israel's President Shimon Peres walks past Robert De Niro and his son Julian Henry De Niro during their meeting at the President's residence on June 18, 2013, in Jerusalem, Israel | Source: Getty Images\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>In the same interview, De Niro confessed he didn\u2019t think he was a cool dad and didn\u2019t think that his children saw him that way, either. The actor said while he\u2019s had&nbsp;arguments with his children&nbsp;over the years, he still shared good relationships with each of them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Getting candid about raising biracial children, the director spoke about fatherhood and being a grandfather of four in January 2020. At the time, he&nbsp;said&nbsp;having kids changed his world perspective:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWhen you become a parent, there are certain things that you become more aware of, more sensitive about.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Being a dad to biracial children gets him scared sometimes, especially when it comes to the massive issue of racism in the country. \u201cMy children are all half black, and I don\u2019t have, even me; I take certain things for granted,\u201d he&nbsp;noted, referring to having more opportunities as a white man.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He said when people advise their kids on how to behave when&nbsp;stopped by the police, telling them to keep their hands where officers could see them, keeping them on the steering wheel, and remaining still, he understands. De Niro acknowledged how scary it was and that it needed to change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.amomama.com\/fb9b3394d9c5f457abc612bedbdd1214184f87a3df3919bac9649088be7c9b64.jpg\" alt=\"Julian Henry De Niro, John David Washington, Danielle Brooks, Samuel L.

The next star with a rarely seen child is a Spanish actress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"luna-garcia-is-one-of-rossy-de-palma-s-two\"><strong>Luna Garc\u00eda Is One of Rossy de Palma\u2019s Two Children<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Rossy de Palma was discovered in 1986 by Spanish film director Pedro Almod\u00f3var at a caf\u00e9 in Madrid. The Spanish actress has appeared several times in&nbsp;Almod\u00f3var\u2019s movies, including \u201cLaw of Desire\u201d (1987) and \u201cWomen on the Verge of Nervous Breakdown\u201d (1988).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.amomama.com\/6464822771bc997ff7c2c0e92ecc3ea203be21645665e6ab4ceed3752fb0b033.jpg\" alt=\"Rossy de Palma delivers the Gonzalez Sinde 2019 Award to Tarifa Tanger at the African Film Festival on June 20, 2019, in Madrid, Spain | Source: Getty Images\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>At the beginning of her acting career, de Palma was famously&nbsp;dismissed&nbsp;as \u201cugly and strange\u201d by her home country\u2019s leading newspaper. She has asymmetrical eyes and a long nose; her left eye is green, and her right is much brighter and rounder. As for her appearance, she made an expressional statement during a May 1994 interview. Then 29 years old, the brunette beauty&nbsp;said:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.amomama.com\/048538b2aa1d7dcbcb862b0d2651917c4b25e186e07ab932aec0fb07bde43d5b.jpg\" alt=\"Rossy de Palma and Luna Garcia at the Schiaparelli Haute Couture Fall\/Winter 2017-2018 show as part of Haute Couture Paris Fashion Week on July 3, 2017, in Paris, France | Source: Getty Images\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cPerhaps I\u2019m very pretty to some people and very ugly for others.

De Palma\u2019s child isn\u2019t well-known, as she\u2019s rarely seen publicly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.amomama.com\/8d9b4b0a2b23d630a36b84cf9f50fa87e09f7372ff6d0ad2a025558210579a16.jpg\" alt=\"Luna Garcia and Rossy de Palma at the &quot;Gala Sida&quot; on November 21, 2016, in Madrid, Spain | Source: Getty Images\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>However, on August 24, 2023, the actress put the young woman into the spotlight when she paid tribute to her on Instagram on her birthday. The proud mom posted several images of the mother-and-daughter duo. The doting mother&nbsp;captioned her post writing:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cHappy 24 My One &amp; Only I Love You Infinite My Love Im So (sic) Proud Of You Daughter You Are My Best And Most Precious Gift.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.amomama.com\/38d40cc273f2768c27e11aa0a0e6587a3a9f75e7888636a61adce9784952cd50.jpg\" alt=\"Rossy de Palma and Luna Garcia at the &quot;Depardieu Chante Barbara&quot; at &quot;Le Cirque D'Hiver&quot; on November 14, 2017, in Paris, France | Source: Getty Images\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>One picture showed de Palma and Garcia sporting glamorous looks, with their hair tied in buns and wearing dangling earrings. In August 2018, the mom of two was reported to be living in Madrid with her children, where she owned a house just outside the city. Next up is Kate Hudson\u2019s oldest son.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"kate-hudson-s-son-ryder-prefers-staying-out\"><strong>Kate Hudson\u2019s Son, Ryder, Prefers Staying out of the Limelight<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Kate Hudson became a mother at 23 when she welcomed her son, Ryder Russell, with her former husband, Chris Robinson. In an interview with Kelly Ripa and Ryan Seacrest on their talk show \u201cLive with Kelly and Ryan,\u201d Hudson&nbsp;confessed&nbsp;feeling like a \u201cteen mom\u201d after her son was born.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.amomama.com\/857b706e33403c15f8f16a579e9d7a88.jpg\" alt=\"Matt Lauer and a pregnant Kate Hudson on the &quot;Today&quot; show, circa 2011 | Source: Getty Images\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>During the interview, the star joked about being 12 when she had Ryder and stated that in terms of Hollywood, that was what she was because she welcomed a child so early in her life. Besides Ryder, Hudson is also the mother to two other kids: a boy named Bingham, a product of her relationship with ex-fianc\u00e9 Matt Bellamy, and a daughter named Rani Rose, whom she shares with her current fianc\u00e9, Danny Fujikawa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It has been challenging for Hudson to cater to all her children while juggling her career and other business engagements, but she somehow pulled it off. The single mom had help from her two older kids, especially Ryder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hudson lives with her kids in the same house she was raised in by her mother, Goldie Hawn. Hawn bought the house with her longtime lover Kurt Russell in the 1970s, but they sold it more than a decade later. In 2015, the actress&nbsp;purchased it again, and in 2011, she bought the neighboring house and converted both houses into one significant luxury estate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She now inhabits the main house with Fujikawa, their daughter, and her two sons. Hudson has a great relationship with all her kids; however, she has acknowledged a special bond between her and her first child, Ryder, who is now a young adult. She&nbsp;explained:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI was really young, like, 23, when I had Ryder. So, our relationship has always been [a little unusual]. I mean, we\u2019re close, and I am his mum. I\u2019m big on manners. I\u2019m big on politeness. I\u2019m big on gratitude. But I\u2019m a bit of a wild mum.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The rarely-seen Ryder seems to have much love for his mom and siblings. He has been known to make her breakfast in bed and share posts that capture him caring for his younger siblings. Some posts see him praising his mom and granny, Hawn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>September 2022 was the month most schools resumed, and for Hudson, this meant Ryder leaving the nest for college. He was 18 when he left California for school on the East Coast. During the preparations, the star\u2019s maternal instincts were in full swing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She shopped for brand-new homeware with Ryder and even attempted to use what little authority she still had to influence his decisions! Hudson posted snaps that captured some of their&nbsp;preparations for his departure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Her photos captured his must-haves, snacks, supplements, and books. In one post, she revealed that she asked him to get more things, but he refused, hilariously calling him a \u201cminimalist.\u201d Hudson seemed intent on making as many memories of the preparation as possible, and she shared a lot with her fans, who praised her for it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Towards the end of September, the proud mom spoke about how she felt since Ryder left. She said that the topic was too complex to even talk about and&nbsp;admitted&nbsp;to having moments when she started crying \u201cbecause something will just hit me that he\u2019s not here.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hudson takes comfort in knowing that her son is having a great time in the city. His readiness made her feel excited for him, and she expressed contentment with his growth,&nbsp;saying:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m so excited for his future. When you see your kids thriving and feeling good in their skin, that\u2019s all I can ask for.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fortunately, the devoted mother and her lovely son seem determined to preserve their bond despite their distance. The two often speak over the phone, and according to Hudson, they\u2019ve already had an emotional moment while chatting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There will most likely be more of that as time passes, but&nbsp;Kate Hudson&nbsp;is ready to take it in stride; after all, absence makes the heart grow fonder. In the next section, we look at Jamie Lee Curtis\u2019 private daughter who transitioned from being a man.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"jamie-lee-curtis-second-child-ruby-transitioned\"><strong>Jamie Lee Curtis\u2019 Second Child, Ruby, Transitioned from a Man to a Woman<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cPerfect\u201d actress Jamie Lee Curtis always wanted kids. For several years after marrying her husband, comedy director Christopher Guest, the two tried to have their own but struggled intensely with infertility issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.amomama.com\/16d20db2e3189716321b389823a13a33.jpg\" alt=\"Christopher Guest and Jamie Lee Curtis at a screening of &quot;Mascots&quot; on October 5, 2016, in Los Angeles, California | Source: Getty Images\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Eventually, when all efforts proved futile, the actress and her husband decided to adopt. The \u201cTrue Lies\u201d actress revealed that adoption was the only way they could be a family, as a family never felt complete until a child was involved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Curtis and Guest had only been married for two years when they welcomed their little girl home in an open adoption. They took her home soon after her birth in 1986. While the couple had \u201csought\u201d&nbsp;to adopt Annie, welcoming their second baby, Ruby (then Thomas), was not as planned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.amomama.com\/7741db292b2e2a86d7ca26e546db7366.jpg\" alt=\"Thomas Guest, Jamie Lee Curtis, and Annie Guest at the Los Angeles premiere of &quot;AVATAR&quot; on December 16, 2009, in Hollywood, California | Source: Getty Images\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Curtis disclosed that a set of circumstances surrounding the birth resulted in Ruby\u2019s adoption. The actress participated in the birth ceremony, cut the umbilical cord, and was the first person to hold Ruby. She shared the experience,&nbsp;saying:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI thought, I have very thoroughly lived a life. The birth of my [daughter] changed me.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.amomama.com\/34094736a69a15c84244787387a854c7.jpg\" alt=\"Thomas Guest and Jamie Lee Curtis at the Los Angeles premiere of &quot;Wreck-It Ralph&quot; on October 29, 2012, in Hollywood, California | Source: Getty Images\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>With her two children, she finally felt that her family was complete. However, she\u2019d never been prepared to face the shock of her daughter coming out as transgender. Named Tom after birth, Ruby started struggling with her gender identity at 16 when a friend asked her what gender she was.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even though she answered by saying she was male, the thought stayed with her for a long time. She\u2019d always felt different, but after a horrible therapy experience, she decided not to come out. Seven years later, she told her girlfriend she was probably transgender, and the partner assured her she would love her no matter what.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.amomama.com\/58f958f0dbb5cdaa965e5b7b5f38d999.jpg\" alt=\"Thomas Guest and Jamie Lee Curtis at the theatrical premiere of &quot;One Piece Film: Gold&quot; on January 5, 2017, in West Hollywood, California | Source: Getty Images\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Accepting herself was, however,&nbsp;easier than coming out&nbsp;to her parents. But despite how terrifying it was for Ruby, she knew everything would turn out fine as her parents had been accepting of her all her life. She&nbsp;shared:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIt was scary \u2014 just the sheer fact of telling them something about me they didn\u2019t know. It was intimidating \u2014 but I wasn\u2019t worried. They had been so accepting of me my entire life.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.amomama.com\/a654b9432c547a9bba2430a4b5aa53a8.jpg\" alt=\"Christopher Guest and Jamie Lee Curtis at the MusiCares Person of the Year on February 11, 2011, in Los Angeles, California | Source: Getty Images\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2020, she sat her parents down in their Los Angeles home, ready to tell her secret, but couldn\u2019t. She left her house, texted her mother, and spilled the beans. Curtis\u2019s daughter admitted to tears being involved. While Curtis has accepted Ruby wholeheartedly, she and her husband still struggle with the appropriate pronouns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Luckily, Ruby understands and does not get mad at them for that; instead, she\u2019s treating it as a learning curve. Despite the mess-ups and slips, Curtis has remained supportive of her daughter.

They went on to star in \u201cKill Me Again\u201d together a year after they exchanged vows. By 1991, they had begun expanding their family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 1991, Kilmer and Whalley welcomed their daughter, Mercedes. Four years later, the family expanded again with the addition of the couple\u2019s son, Jack. A year later, in 1995, the&nbsp;couple divorced.

The star also told the story of the lengths he went to to be with his daughter from the day she was born.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He had asked the nurse where his bed was, but the medical professional thought he was joking because no father had ever requested to remain at the hospital with his wife and newborn child.
