Leonardo DiCaprio

[BudgeUpAnne]

I know this has been discussed before but I am sickened by the thought of the latest rumours surrounding his love life. 19 years old? Just so wrong!

I know that she’s an adult, but he’s very powerful and old enough to be her dad. It all just feels gross.

It's barely speculation at this stage, more common and accepted knowledge.

It's an ego thing, that's my opinion. Why would he go for an older when he can get younger and thus make himself feel young in the process. It's a common thing where men are concerned - I think most men if they could would go really young.

This ^

I'm really surprised more of you didn't know this. It's openly hinted at over the last twenty years plus of newspaper stories, hardly speculation by this point, more open secret.

It's just PR for the latest models, who cares beyond that.

In Saint-Tropez!

Two consenting adults in a relationship.

It's nothing to do with you

This.

I really, really do not believe he's gay. It's perfectly acceptable to be gay now. He's not a Conservative person. He's always been quite anti-establishment so I think he'd own it if he was gay. It's far worse PR to have a string of teenage girlfriends than a gay partner!!

Yes, seems to be common knowledge and lots of hints in articles about him and his close friend.

But it's not tobey maguire who always travels with him

Thank you, I feel better now. 😂

People are so naive. Yes of course it's perfectly acceptable to be gay. But gay actors are limiting their ability to play parts the minute they come out. I can't think of one openly gay male lead who isn't pigeonholed into effeminate roles. Straight actors playing gay roles, yes, but hardly ever see the opposite.

Is this any worse than Madonna (64) with her 22 year old toyboys?
And what does Kate Winslet daughter have to do with it?

He is rich and famous, so if he wants a dolly bird he can get one. Presumably it is good for her career to be seen with him?

She was born 7 years after Titanic was released.

Lolz

I'd love to know the long list of openly gay men who get cast as the male lead in Hollywood romances ....
It's still a career killer.
Women don't like it, or Hollywood producers don't think women like it. Either way, it's career suicide.
Unless you like playing the gay best friend roles etc of course. People love those actors.

I suppose it's worse in sport .. particularly football ...
Apparently noone is gay in football. Heaven forbid.

I wouldn't say Leonardo being gay is 'common and accepted knowledge'. It's certainly talked about a lot, but endless blind gossip items still doesn't make it true.

I always thought he was in a long term 25+ years relationship with his friend Lukas and all these young women are in it for the publicity and to act as his beard. Hollywood is still incredibly homophobic.

It's not a real relationship, people. Even if you don't accept that he's gay, surely the idea of showmances for publicity that deflect attention from a person's actual private life is plausible? Well that's what a lot of celebrities do

Certainly when I was in my early 20s plenty of my friends were dating older 40 something 'successful' men. I was often told by these women that they preferred a more mature refined gentleman over the boozy childish lads their own age. I'm sure the foreign city breaks, fine dining and designer gifts had nothing to do with their decision.

Yes I understand that but surely he'd have a longer term showmance with one person rather than 10 romances with 20 year olds each year!! It's really not a good look and is very poor PR, if this is what it is.

My dd is 19 and I’d be totally creeped out if she was dating someone so much older than her. All kinds of weird and wrong.

The one thing his relationships don't do these days is deflect attention from his private life.

I doubt she’d be with him if he wasn’t famous and rich.
