If you’ve logged on to the internet for even half a second over the last 24 hours, you’ve probably heard the rumor that Oscar-winning thespian Leonardo DiCaprio, 48, is dating 19-year-old model Eden Polani. The whole hullabaloo started after the Daily Mail published photos of the pair at a party.

Sources shut down the rumors fast, but not fast enough: On Twitter the actor was dragged for the pair’s massive age gap, and his pattern of dating women under the age of 25.

“Leo and Eden just so happened to have been seated next to each other at the party, and were hanging in the same group,” a source told People on Tuesday, February 7. “Just because Leo might be talking to or sitting with a girl doesn’t mean he’s dating her.” 

DiCaprio and actor Camila Morrone ended their four-year relationship last year, just months after she turned 25. (Much was made of the fact that she was born in 1997, the same year Titanic came out.)

At the beginning of 2023, it was rumored that he rang in the New Year with 23-year-old model Victoria Lamas. Page Six reported that DiCaprio and Lamas spent the holiday on a yacht off St. Barts. While sources said the pair were just friends, the outlet noted that this was their “fourth hangout in less than a month.”
