Though the Oscar winner has never been married, he has been romantically linked toDiane Keaton, Lucila Solá and Alfallah over the years.
“Of course it’s possible [I’ll get married]. It seems beside the point though,” the actor toldtheBoston Heraldin 2015. “I have no idea, but I never say never.”
Pacino’s parents divorced when he was 2, after which he moved in with his maternal grandparents. “My father wasn’t in my life from then,” he toldTheGuardianin 2015. “I wanted to be different with my children. I wanted to be responsible to them, so I divide my time between two coasts.”
Pacino spoke toTheNew Yorkerabout fatherhood in 2014, saying,“I’m responsible to them. I’m a part of their life. When I’m not, it’s upsetting to me and to them. So that’s part of the gestalt. And I get a lot from it. It takes you out of yourself.”

Julie has won several awards for her work, including best director at theVenice Shorts Film Festivalin 2020 and the silver award for comedy at theHollywood Gold Awardsthe same year.

In 2015, Pacino toldTheGuardianabout how his children have changed him. “Kids changed my perspective,” he said.“Before I had my three, I’d walk around in my own head, not noticing anything. Acting used to be everything; now, because of them, it’s just a small part.”
In 2014, he toldThe New Yorkerabout a décor item Anton made as a little boy. “My son painted this when he was 4. ‘New York in the Fall,’ " he shared.

A rep for Pacino confirmed to PEOPLE in late May 2023 that the actor and his then-girlfriend wereexpecting their first child together.
“Al loves being a father and always has.He is excited,” a source told PEOPLE following the big news. “Being a parent is and always was an important part of Al’s life.”
In a March 2024 interview withVogueArabia,Alfallah said that Roman is “a thousand times betterthan what I ever thought he would be.”
She also talked about what it has been like raising Roman while combining her own culture with Pacino’s.
“I think that there are a lot of similarities between Italians and Arabs. And because he’s an Italian Arab, I think he’s for sure going to be a soccer player. No, I’m just kidding. I don’t know. He can be whatever he wants to be,” she said, adding, “His dad, of course, wants him to be whoever he wants to be…I think acting is in his genes though.”
In October 2024, Pacino told theBBCthat he and Roman no longer live together, but his son “doestext me from time to time.”
“You know, I have this little person. Everything he does is interesting to me,” he added. “So we talk. I play the harmonica with him and we have made this kind of contact. So it’s fun.”
Pacino also confirmed that he and Roman’s mother were no longer romantically involved that same month when the actor told PEOPLE that rather than a relationship, he had “friendship” in his life.
“Al and Noor arevery good friends, have been for years, and are co-parents to their son Roman,” his rep clarified.
