Model Vittoria Ceretti gave a rare interview detailing her relationship with Hollywood A-lister Leonardo DiCaprio.
The Italian model, 26, has been romantically linked to DiCaprio, 50, since August 2023. She shared some tidbits about their relationship in a new cover story interview for Vogue France’s April 2025 issue, per the translated version of the original article in French.
When asked how the couple met, Ceretti replied, “In Milan. But I prefer not to go into details.” The model confirmed that she had seen the massively popular film “Titanic” (1997), which DiCaprio starred in. “Who hasn’t seen it? Or didn’t like it? It’s an iconic film,” she answered.
Next, Ceretti revealed the “annoying” thing about dating someone as famous as her current boyfriend. “As soon as you’re in a relationship with someone who has a larger following than you, you become ‘girlfriend of’—or ‘boyfriend of,’ for that matter. And that can be extremely annoying,” she told the outlet.
“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,” she added.
When the interviewer mentioned how difficult it must be to date “one of the most desired people in the world,” Ceretti responded, “It’s 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.”
The interviewer noted that Ceretti gave a “big smile of relief” after he stopped asking “boyfriend questions.”
DiCaprio has never been married and is known for dating much younger models. He’s been romantically linked to Gisele Bündchen, Gigi Hadid, and Camila Morrone, among others, and all of these relationships have been kept very private.
There’s been a joke circulating about how the actor refuses to date women older than 25. DiCaprio seemingly broke his own rule by staying with Ceretti after she turned 26 last June, as many people pointed out on social media.
