Robert De Niro’s daughter remembers late son Leandro on 20th birthday

Robert De Niro’s daughter mourned her late son, Leandro, on what would have been his 20th birthday.

“You would have been 20 yrs old today💔Thank you for the happiest and most profound 2 decades of my life, little angel. I hope you are at peace and your spirit is filled with joy today and always 🥳♥️🕊️🐒 😢 🕯️8~11~03 – 7~2~23,” Drena De Niro captioned a carousel of throwback pictures on Instagram Friday.

The heartfelt tribute included snaps of Leandro as a baby, a video of him dancing and one of the teen alongside his famous grandfather.

Drena’s heartbreaking post comes days after it was revealed that her son had died from a “toxic” combination of illicit drugs.

The New York City Medical Examiner told Page Six Tuesday that the teenager’s death was ruled an “accident” after it was determined he had a mix of fentanyl, alprazolam, bromazolam, 7-aminoclonazepam, ketamine and cocaine in his system.

“You would have been 20 yrs old today💔,” she wrote.

Police arrested Sophia Marks, the woman allegedly responsible for selling Leandro the fatal drugs, on July 13 after cops obtained texts between her and the “A Star Is Born” actor about the pills.

Marks, 20, admitted she warned the teen against taking the fentanyl-laced pills she supposedly sold him, according to a criminal complaint obtained by Page Six.

She is believed to have sold drugs to kids as young as 15.
