Abbott and De Niro share two children, a daughter, and a son, together. Before Abbott got married to De Niro, she already had a daughter named Drena.
It is unknown who Drena's biological father is, but she was raised by De Niro. Shortly after their marriage, the Irishman actor adopted Drena and gave her his last name.
Even after the divorce, he maintains a close bond with his children. Drena told Avenue Magazine in 2011 that growing up alongside her father was very influential.

She spent her childhood on her father's movie sets in New York. As a result, she became involved with the entertainment industry.
She started as a DJ and later ventured into the modeling world. She has worked with many designers and brands like Giorgio Armani, Vivienne Westwood, and Jean Paul Gaultier.
Soon after, she followed in her parents' footsteps and started acting. Some movies she worked on are Grace of My Heart, Great Expectations, Hands of Stone, and A Star Is Born.
Drena's brother and Abbott's second of two children, Raphael, lives differently from his parents and sister. He was born shortly after his parent's marriage in 1976.
At first, he started acting and worked in movies like Love Streams, West 4th, James Abbott is Gone and Raging Bull, among others. But he changed his career path and started working as a broker.
He was ranked no. 1 in The Real Deal's Manhattan top residential agents as of 2017. Like his mother, he also leads a low-key life.
