While some fans were excited to hear that Leo was back on the market, many others saw the split as confirmation of a widely discussed theory about his love life.

While the 50-year-old has remained silent on the media speculation surrounding his dating life, Leo’s new romance has offered a rare insight into the hardest part of dating the fan-favourite star.

Who is Leonardo DiCaprio dating?

Leonardo DiCaprio has most recently been linked to 26-year-old Italian model Vittoria Ceretti.

Opening up on their relationship for the first time in March 2025, Vittoria revealed to Vogue France that the pair first crossed paths in Milan.

While she may not have divulged too much information about their relationship, the model spoke candidly about the downsides of dating someone with such a high profile.

“As soon as you’re in a relationship with someone who has a larger following than you, you become the ‘girlfriend of’ or ‘boyfriend of,’ for that matter, and that can be extremely annoying,” she shared.

“Suddenly, people are talking about you as so-and-so’s girlfriend who was so-and-so’s ex, so it’s not nice to think that you can’t love whoever you want because of the labels people need to stick on you.”

While being in a relationship with one of the biggest heartthrobs of the 90s remains a dream for many of Leo’s fans, Vittoria added that the attention and envy that comes with their relationship is “something you learn.”

“If what you’re experiencing is real, if you know you love each other, then there’s no reason to be alarmed, because love protects and gives confidence.”

Vittoria’s comments come almost two years after the pair were first spotted together in May 2023, with the couple photographed sharing a kiss ahead of Leo’s appearance at the Cannes Film Festival.

After news of their potential new romance made headlines, the pair were later photographed together at the end of August on an ice cream date in Santa Barbara, before being papped again in a Spanish nightclub in early September.

While they did not confirm their relationship at the time, sources speaking to Us Weekly revealed in November 2023 that Leo and Vittoria were officially in a relationship.

“It’s going so well that Leo’s actually being exclusive. Vittoria is all he thinks about,” the source shared, adding, “He says she’s not only gorgeous but super down to earth, and they have a ton in common.”

After being spotted at various concerts and dinners throughout the early part of 2024, the couple’s relationship appeared to still be going strong, with the couple spotted vacationing in Sardinia alongside Leo’s The Great Gatsby co-star, Tobey Maguire.

Maya Jama (March 2023)

Leonardo was linked to Love Island UK host Maya Jama in March 2023, with reports of his rumoured relationship with the then-28-year-old leading many to believe that his alleged ‘age cap’ was purely coincidental. 

Speculation surrounding their relationship first arose in February 2023, with The Sun reporting that the actor had been frequently partying with the reality TV host while in London for the 2023 BAFTA Awards.

“They are taking things a day at a time. Leo has certainly been wooing her though, he loves spending time with her,” a source told the publication, adding that Leo and Maya had been “in regular contact and have been on a string of dates”.

Rumours surrounding the couple peaked in late March 2023 following a photo of Maya wearing a ‘Leo’ necklace, however, she was quick to dispel any speculation.

“I’ve been minding my business on holiday and said I wouldn’t respond/pay attention to any of the silly stories anymore, but you need to stop now. [Leo] is literally my star sign. We are not dating. Move on, please,” she wrote on X.

Eden Polani (February 2023)

Amidst his casual romance with Gigi Hadid, Leo allegedly entered a relationship with the then-19-year-old model Eden Polani in February 2023. The relationship was denied after the story went viral.

After they were photographed sitting shoulder-to-shoulder at an EP release party, fans immediately flocked to social media to express their outrage.

“Leonardo DiCaprio’s girlfriend is so young her high school experience was interrupted by COVID-19,” one X user wrote.

Despite speculation, an E! News source said, “Leo and Eden just so happen to have been seated next to each other at the party and were hanging in the same group.”

Gigi Hadid (September 2022 – February 2023)

Leo was linked to Gigi Hadid in September 2022.

Rumours first began to surface following the publication of photos by the Daily Mail that showed Gigi and Leo looking somewhat affectionate with one another at a New York Fashion Week after-party. 

“He really likes that Gigi has her life together,” a source told People at the time.

“She has a child, and she’s mature. He wants to be with someone who has the same idea of good causes and political views like he does.”

The pair were then spotted enjoying several nights out in New York in the following months. In January 2023, after Leo was linked to Victoria Lamas on NYE, a source claimed Gigi and Leo were not exclusive. 

“Leo and Gigi have enjoyed their time together when they’re able to see each other, but when they’re busy with various commitments, they’re doing their own things, and they are not exclusive,” a source told ET.

Camilla Morrone (2017-2022)

Leo was previously in a long-term relationship with Daisy Jones & the Six star Camilla Morrone. 

Rumours of a romance between the couple first surfaced in December 2017, with a then-20-year-old Camilla frequently spotted alongside the actor on multiple yacht cruises and holidays. 

The couple publicly debuted their relationship in April 2018 at the Coachella Music Festival, with the duo’s affectionate display quickly garnering media attention. 

While they kept their relationship largely out of the public eye, Leo and Camilla reportedly parted ways in August 2022 after nearly five years together, with The Sun reporting that they simply grew apart over time.

“[They] ended their relationship over the summer… There are no bad feelings between them. It just came to a natural conclusion,” a source told the publication.
