Al Pacino's 29-Year-Old Girlfriend Files for Son Custody in Court

Pacino's Side "Mutual Agreement on Custody... Not a Breakup"

Hollywood veteran actor Al Pacino (83) and his girlfriend Nur Alfala (29), who is 54 years his junior, have had their son Roman Pacino, and Nur Alfala has filed for custody of the child in court.

According to Fox News and other foreign media on the 7th (local time), Alfala requested legal rights to the child to be shared with Pacino, while physically having the sole right to raise the child. Instead, she proposed that Pacino be granted reasonable visitation rights. Alfala gave birth to Roman Pacino about three months ago, in June.

According to court documents, the two currently live at different residences. Regarding this, a representative from Al Pacino's side told Fox News, "The two have reached an agreement regarding their child Roman," adding, "Many people ask if they have broken up, but they are still together." However, when asked why Alfala filed for custody if they are still in a romantic relationship, Pacino's spokesperson avoided answering, saying, "That is a question for Alfala."

U.S. media also reported that Alfala submitted a paternity acknowledgment form signed by both her and Pacino six days after Roman was born at a hospital in Los Angeles (LA). Earlier, on the 27th of last month, Alfala posted a photo of the baby's small hand on Instagram, writing, "The greatest blessing in my life. Roman."

Al Pacino and Nur Alfala have been dating since April 2022. Pacino has three children from two previous relationships, making Roman his fourth child. He had his first daughter, Julie Marie, with acting coach Jan Tarrant in 1989, and twins Olivia and Anton with his partner, actress Beverly D'Angelo, in 2001.

Al Pacino gained worldwide attention for his role as Michael Corleone, the son of mafia boss Don Corleone, in the film The Godfather (1972), and later won the Best Actor Oscar at the 65th Academy Awards for his role as a visually impaired man in Scent of a Woman (1992).

Producer Alfala is known for dating men significantly older than herself. At age 22, she dated Mick Jagger (80), the lead singer of the Rolling Stones, and she was also involved in a scandal with billionaire investor Nicolas Berggruen (61).

Earlier, Al Pacino was late to learn about Alfala's pregnancy and doubted paternity, claiming he was infertile, but a DNA test confirmed that Roman is indeed his child.
