told Jimmy Fallon on Tuesday.The comedian, 49, and De Niro, 80, both appeared on Tuesday’s episode of “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon,” which reignited Handler’s love for the “Meet the Parents” actor.While being interviewed by Fallon, 49, Handler admitted that she was too shy to approach De Niro in-person at the studio.“I couldn’t even go near him backstage because his girlfriend’s back there, and I don’t want her to think that I’m making a move — but I want to make a move,” Handler said. De Niro is dating Tiffany Chen, 45, and they have a 1-year-old daughter named Gia Virginia Chen-De Niro. Gia is De Niro’s 7th child.
“I have a penchant for elderly men,” Handler further explained to Fallon. “I always date older. At some point I’ll have to stop, you know, because it’s going to get too old.
But I feel sexually attracted to Robert De Niro. I always have. And I would like to be penetrated by him.”The audience laughed over Handler’s absurd remarks as Fallon, who was also amused by her antics, tried to move onto a new topic.“I’m gonna change the subject,” he said with a laugh, before asking Handler about her new puppy and comedy tour.
De Niro did his own interview with Fallon that seemingly taped before Handler’s appearance, so Fallon couldn’t ask him about Handler’s comments. Handler appears to be single at the moment. Her last public relationship was with fellow comedian Jo Koy.The exes had known each other for nearly 20 years before they started dating in the summer of 2021.Koy, 52, frequently appeared as a guest on Handler’s E! late-night show “Chelsea Lately,” which ran from 2007 to 2014.“One day, I just looked at him and I thought, ‘Oh, that’s my guy!’” Handler told Fallon in October 2021.
