The news that Al Pacino and his 29-year-old partner Noor Alfallah are expecting their fourth child went viral online last week. The Godfather star has now addressed the pregnancy discovery publicly for the first time since the rumours became known, calling it "very special." Following the May 31 release of information about Noor's pregnancy, a fresh story stated that Al Pacino was so shocked by the news that he "demanded a pre-natal DNA test." For the first 11 weeks of her pregnancy, Noor even kept her pregnancy a secret from Al Pacino since she knew he didn't want any more children. Al Pacino's children were said to be quite distressed by the news, according to the story. Al Pacino, 83, and his girlfriend Noor Alfallah, 29, are excitedly preparing for a child. “It feels like it always did … it’s very special,” he raved in a video on Tuesday, June 6. “It always has been. I’ve got many kids. But this is really special coming at this time.” He also said that he doesn't know the baby's gender yet. In the video, which was captured on Monday, June 5 when he was out on a stroll in Los Angeles, he seemed to be in high spirits. Soon after Noor's pregnancy was announced, reports started to spread that Al asked a DNA test be done on the unborn kid since he didn't think he was capable of procreating. The House of Gucci actor "had medical issues that would have typically prevented a man from getting pregnant with a woman," according to the article. A close friend of the couple, however, rejected rumors that Noor withheld her pregnancy from Al until she was almost four months along and that the allegation was untrue. One of Hollywood's most admired performers, Al Pacino appeared in a number of classic movies, including The Godfather, Scarface, Heat, Scent of a Woman, and Dog Day Afternoon. His upcoming film appearance is in David Mamet's Assassination. Along with the aforementioned performers, Viggo Mortensen, John Travolta, Shia LaBeouf, Rebecca Pidgeon, and Courtney Love appear in the movie about the assassination of former US President John F. Kennedy. Anna Shay said goodbye to the world at the age of 62 Bear Grylls' life is surrounded by controversies Crime comedy film 'The Out-Laws' trailer out
