The two share 7-year-old Helen Grace, who they had via surrogate.

Records obtained by the publication show De Niro included an “Anonymous v. Anonymous” caption on the case to keep it low-key for the sake of their child.

The Godfather actor asked a judge for visitation with his daughter on December 13, 2018, the same day he filed for divorce.

He and Hightower are due in court next week to initiate their custody agreement.
