Alfallah has been linked to other older stars.
Prior to dating Pacino, Alfallah dated Rolling Stones frontman Mick Jagger in 2017 and 2018, according to E! News.
Their relationship was confirmed by Alfallah, who posted a photo cuddled up to Jagger on Instagram. "Our ages didn't matter to me," she told Hello! (via the Daily Mail). "The heart doesn't know what it sees, it only knows what it feels. It was my first serious relationship, but it was a happy time for me."
In the following years, Alfallah was also spotted with billionaire Nicolas Berggruen, 61, and Eastwood, 93, but she told Hello! that Berrgruen was just a friend. She has posted about him frequently on Instagram and in 2019 she posted for his birthday, calling him "My bestie for life!" As for Eastwood, she told the Daily Mail in 2019, "We're family friends, and my family was there and that's it. My parents were there, other friends were there. Trust me there's no relationship." Alfallah was also seen out with director Eli Roth, 51, in 2018.
Sources say that she enjoys spending time with older people.
Online reactions to Alfallah's pregnancy news and her dating history include accusations that she's a "gold digger," but a source told Page Six that this is not the case and that her family is wealthy. Another source said that she is legitimately attracted to older people, and that they appreciate her youthful spirit.
"She is a good girl with an old soul, but she has a spirit that is very youthful," a source said. "She is fun. A guy in his 70s or 80s would feel young around her. She has a generosity of spirit."
Additionally, a friend of Alfallah's told Page Six, "She is very positive and not an opportunist. She loves old people and these guys are fascinating." The same friend said that she became close with disgraced director Brett Ratner and an older family member of his. "She became best friends with Ratner’s grandmother," the unnamed source said. "When his grandmother needed cataract surgery, Noor got up at 5 a.m. to go with his grandma and him.”

Her friend is concerned about the pregnancy, however.
The friend who spoke with Page Six also said that Alfallah is close to her parents and her siblings. They anticipated that her family might have an issue with her pregnancy.
"The mom is Jewish and the dad is from Kuwait,” the source said. “With a father who’s Kuwaiti, to have a baby out of wedlock [may be a big deal]. The dad is an open, cool guy. He is a modern guy. But having a child out of wedlock is another step.”
Some claim the pregnancy was a surprise.
