Robert Duvall's wife, Luciana Pedraza, was by his side at the end of his life. Duvall and Pedraza got married in 2005, marking the Godfather actor's fourth marriage. "When I met my current wife - she's much younger than I - we met in Argentina on the street, by chance," Duvall told Closer Weekly in May 2021 of when he first crossed paths with the Argentine actress and director. "I figured, why not? [And] it worked out." Pedraza announced the actor's death at age 95 in a statement via Facebook in February 2026.
