A few days ago we learned the news of the death of one of Robert de Niro's grandchildren, Leandro, 19 years old and son of the also actress Drena de Niro. The person in charge of giving the news has been the daughter of Robert de Niro through a publication on her social networks.
The 55-year-old actress shared a heartbreaking statement on her Instagram profile telling the sad news. "My beautiful sweet angel. I have loved you beyond words or description from the moment I felt you in my womb. You have been my joy, my heart and all that was ever pure and real in my life. I wish to be with you right now. I wish I was with you,'' she declared.
''I don't know how to live without you, but I will try to move on and spread the love and light that you made me feel so much being your mom. You were so deeply loved and cherished and I wish that only love could have saved you. I'm so sorry, my baby. Rest in Peace and in the Eternal Paradise my dear child", concluded Drena de Niro.
The death of the young man has been a hard blow for the entire family of the 79-year-old actor and especially for the interpreter's eldest daughter who was adopted by the Godfather actor and his first wife, actress Diahnne Abbott. So far the reason for the young man's death was unknown, but Robert de Niro's daughter has revealed the cause of death in a comment.
Drena de Niro responded to a follower, and revealed that the reason for death would have been an overdose. ''Someone sold him fentanyl pills that they knew were laced and they still sold them, so to all these people who keep fucking buying and selling this shit, my son is gone forever,'' he confessed.
This would coincide with the first information that emerged, in which the TMZ medium revealed that a friend of his had found him lifeless in a chair in his New York apartment and that traces of drugs and paraffin had been found in the body.
