Al Pacino recently surprised his fans with the news of becoming a father for the fourth time. But now the news is coming out that his girlfriend is trying to become the primary legal guardian of the 3-month-old…
People are confused as to what sparked this sudden action… keep reading to know more.
Al Pacino and his girlfriend, Noor Alfallah, welcomed their son Roman in June this year. The birth of Roman made Pacino a father for the fourth time while it was Alfallah’s first child.
Roman was born at Cedars Sinai Hospital in Los Angeles on June 6. Just six days after this birth, Alfallah and Pacino signed a voluntary declaration of parentage. The document basically acknowledges Pacino’s paternity of the child.
The document was part of what Alfallah submitted to court as she filed for custody of their infant. According to reports, Alfallah is requesting full physical custody of the child and has requested Pacino only have “reasonable visitation.”
She is requesting physical custody which means that the infant would live with her. However, she has asked that Pacino have a “reasonable right of parenting time to the party without physical custody,” which means that Pacino will still be able to spend time with his infant.
While a custody filing implies that things might not be well, Pacino’s publicist, Stan Rosenfield, begs to differ. He clarified to the media that Pacino and Alfallah have not broken up.
“Al and Noor have successfully worked together and have mutually reached agreements regarding their child Roman,” Rosenfeld said, adding, “They are together.”
As for what prompted Noor to file the suit, Rosenfeld said, “That is a question for Noor.”
On the birth of his son, Pacino said in a rare comment how “It’s very special,” adding, “It always has been. I’ve got many kids. But this is really special coming at this time.”
Pacino has three adult children: his 33-year-old daughter Julie Pacino from his relationship with Jan Tarrant. His twins Olivia and Anton Pacino, are 22 years old now and were born to him during his relationship with their mother, Beverly D’Angelo. Apart from this, actress and model Camila Morrone calls Pacino her stepfather because he dated her mother for a while.
