NextImg:Jo Koy shades Robert De Niro’s growing family at the Golden Globes: ‘How’d you get her pregnant at 80?’

Oh, baby.

Robert De Niro was able to laugh off 2024 Golden Globes host Jo Koy joking about his unexpectedly growing family during his opening monologue.

De Niro, 80, welcomed his seventh child, daughter Gia, with his girlfriend Tiffany Chen, 45, in April.

During Sunday’s show, Koy, who claimed to be a massive fan of the “Goodfellas” star, looked his idol’s way, and said, “This guy’s amazing decade after decade. He just kills it every single time. I don’t know how you do it.”

“Man. I swear to God, your last performance is going to be your greatest performance ever,” Koy geared up for the punchline. “How do you get pregnant at 80?”

“CGI?” Koy asked De Niro, who chuckled from his seat.

The Post has contacted reps for De Niro for comment.

Fans took to De Niro’s defense on X, the platform previously known as Twitter.

“Where’s Will Smith when you need him?” one fan wrote, referencing the infamous Oscars 2022 slap.

“Such tasteless jokes,” another said.

“Jo Koy not very funny i changed the channel,” a third claimed.

De Niro was able to take a joke Sunday night. CBS

De Niro was up for one nomination for Best Supporting Actor in “Killers of the Flower Moon” on Sunday, which he lost to Robert Downey Jr. for “Oppenheimer.” However, he already won two Golden Globes throughout his four-decade-long career.

In October, he told The Guardian that Chen was doing the “heavy lifting” in raising their daughter.

“It doesn’t get easier. It is what it is. It’s OK,” he said at the time.

“I don’t do the heavy lifting. I’m there, I support my girlfriend. But she does the work. And we have help, which is so important.”

He continued: “With a baby, it’s different [than] with my 11-year-old. My adult children. My grandchildren. It’s all different.”

When asked if he’s enjoying fatherhood, he replied: “Of course I do. [I am happy with] all of it.”

De Niro also shares kids Drena, 51, and Raphael, 46, with his first wife, Diahnne Abbott, 27-year-old twins Julian and Aaron with model and actress Toukie Smith, and Elliot, 24, and Helen, 11, with second wife, Grace Hightower.
