No. Robert De Niro was born into a nonpracticing Christian family.

  • His father was a lapsed Catholic born into an Irish Catholic family.
  • His mother was an atheist and born and raised into a Protestant (Presbyterian) family.
  • Robert De Niro's mother has no Jewish ancestry.
  • As for the rumours that his mother had a Jewish ancestry...

This is an urban Jewish legend that happened 20 years ago in The Independent.

She may have practiced Judaism, but she was not born Jewish.

No, Leonardo DiCaprio is not Irish. He's an American with German/Italian ancestry. He did play Americans of Irish descent in the movies Gangs of New York and The Departed however.
