Who is Tiffany Chen?
Chen is a martial arts instructor and kickboxer, stemming from a long familial line of kung-fu and tai chi practicers.
Chen previously told Inside Kung-Fu magazine that she “never practiced tai chi with the intention of looking to fight,” but it ultimately turned into that. Winning dozens of gold medals internationally, Chen also teaches at her father’s tai chi school.
“I surround myself with generous, beautiful people,” Chen said at the time. “Quality people are rarely surrounded by individuals who aren’t motivating factors or inspirational to them. Surround yourself with good people creates a symbiotic relationship that makes everyone’s quality of life go up exponentially.”
In 2015, she and De Niro met on the set of his film “The Intern.” She was photographed teaching him and Anne Hathaway tai chi. Although they met on set, they did not begin dating until several years later.

“My kids disagree with me at times and they’re respectful,” De Niro elaborated of his children, and whether they consider him to be a “cool dad.”
“My daughter is 11, she gives me grief sometimes. I adore her. And my youngest now, so that’ll be more to come, you know, but that’s what it is,” he told the outlet.
Admitting that he is both “loving” and “stern,” with his children, De Niro added “I mean, there’s no way around it with kids,” he shared. “I don’t like to have to lay down the law and stuff like that. But, [sometimes] you just have no choice. And any parent, I think, would say the same thing. You always want to do the right thing by the children and give them the benefit of the doubt, but sometimes you can’t.”
