the tragic loss of Leandro De Niro Rodriguez, the grandson of Robert De Niro. Leandro was 19 years old at the time of his passing. His mother, actress Drena De Niro, shared the news on Instagram, expressing her deep sorrow and love for her son.

The family has asked for privacy during this difficult time. No specific cause of death was mentioned in the available information. Both Drena De Niro and Robert De Niro released statements expressing their profound sadness and gratitude for the support and condolences they have received.

Leandro De Niro Rodriguez was also involved in acting, having appeared in the 2018 film "A Star Is Born" alongside his mother. He had additional acting credits in movies such as "The Collection" in 2005 and "Cabaret Maxime" in 2018, as listed on IMDb.

It's always heartbreaking to hear about the loss of a young life, and my thoughts go out to the De Niro family during this incredibly difficult time.
