Robert De Niro and his wife of more than 20 years have split.

The Raging Bull star was spotted on the red carpet on Monday at a MoMa event in New York City without the former flight attendant by his side. 

The couple share two children: 20-year-old Elliot and six-year-old Helen.

It is not the first split for the couple, who were wed in 1997. Two years into their union, De Niro filed for divorce, but it was never finalized.

The couple eventually reunited, renewing their marriage vows in 2004.

Robert is notoriously private about his relationship with Grace but the pair are outspoken about their belief that their son Elliot's autism is linked to vaccinations.

Explaining how Grace believes the his son 'changed overnight' after being vaccinated as a child, Robert told Today in 2017: 'The vaccines are dangerous to certain people who are more susceptible.'

'Nobody seems to want to address that, or they say they've addressed it and it's a closed issue but it doesn't seem to be.' 

'There are many people who will come out and say I saw my kid change overnight. I saw what happened, I should have done something and I didn't.' 

'There's more to this than meets the eye, believe me.'

The Meet The Parents actor had previously been married to actress Diahnne Abbott, from 1976 to 1988.

The pair had a son, Raphael, in 1976, and the Oscar winning actor adopted Abbott's daughter Drena from a previous relationship. 

The Mean Streets star also has two children with ex Toukie Smith: twin boys Aaron and Julian.

De Niro spoke about his feelings on marriage in a 2013 interview with Katie Couric. 

The star of The Godfather Part II said that the secret to a happy union involved 'a lot of give and take, standing your ground, because then you keep the respect you started out with.' 

However, he shared some rather more cautious advice with The Independent in 2014, saying 'The only thing I would say is that if you get married, it's easier probably not to have children if you're going to split up – it makes life simpler.'

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
