Al Pacino—yes, the Al Pacino—is here to clear the air about his relationship status. Spoiler alert: it’s not as spicy as you might think, but it sure is entertaining.
So, if you missed the memo, here’s the scoop: Al Pacino, the 84-year-old Oscar-winning legend, has been linked to Noor Alfallah, who’s 30 and apparently skipped out on the “date men your own age” memo. They’ve been spotted together since 2020, which in Hollywood years is like… forever. In case that wasn’t enough to raise eyebrows, the two lovebirds welcomed a little bambino, Roman, in June 2023. Cute, right?
But then things got juicy. Noor was spotted over the weekend hanging out with none other than Bill Maher. Yes, the talk-show host who always looks like he just woke up from a nap in a pile of snarky tweets. Naturally, the rumor mill went into overdrive, and people started whispering, “What’s going on with Al and Noor?!”
Well, Al didn’t hesitate to step up to the microphone. When asked by People magazine on Monday (Oct. 7) if he’s still in a relationship, Al channeled his inner philosopher and said, “No. I have friendship.” Ah yes, friendship—the new way of saying, “We’re complicated, but let’s not get into it.”
But wait, there’s more! His rep chimed in with, “Al and Noor are very good friends, have been for years, and are co-parents to their son Roman.” Translation: They’re keeping things civil for the sake of the tiny human they brought into this world. It’s basically a Hollywood version of “We’re not together, but we have joint custody of Netflix.”
And now, the pièce de résistance—Al Pacino’s thoughts on marriage. The man, who has never tied the knot, dropped some serious wisdom in his new memoir Sonny Boy. His hot take? Marriage is like buying a one-way ticket on the “pain train.” Choo-choo, all aboard! Destination: Heartbreak City. But Al’s smart—he’s been chilling at the station, refusing to hop on that train. “A ticket or nothing,” he says. “You going? Nah, I’ll pass. I’ll just wait here with my coffee and enjoy the view.” Honestly, can’t blame him.
He even goes further, waxing poetic about relationships like he’s auditioning for a TED Talk. “Marriage can suit you, sure! But for me? Nah, never felt right.” Apparently, Al’s more into cohabiting than saying “I do.” His take? Living together is cool until it feels like someone’s moved in with an emotional sledgehammer. “If you’re not vibing with the person, it’s like an invasion of privacy.” Al Pacino, everyone—actor, legend, and part-time relationship therapist.
Now, as if all this wasn’t enough to chew on, let’s not forget that Al’s got a whole lotta kids. Along with 16-month-old Roman, he’s also the proud papa of 34-year-old daughter Julie (with acting coach Jan Tarrant) and 23-year-old twins Anton and Olivia (with actress Beverly D’Angelo). That’s right, Al’s out here raising a brood spanning three decades. He may not have hopped on the marriage train, but he’s definitely got his hands full on the parenting express.
And that’s the latest from Al Pacino’s world. If you’re wondering what’s next, well, stay tuned—there’s probably a philosophical musing or a surprise cameo in a diaper commercial coming soon.
