Leonardo DiCaprio is one of Hollywood’s most beloved actors, but he has recently been spotted looking rather different.
And everyone has been blown away by his transformation.
Scroll down for the full story!
We all know Leo.
Born in 1974, he has a long-spanning career including many highly critically acclaimed movies. He’s known for being able to play many different types of roles, from romantic hero to criminal mastermind.
He started early.
DiCaprio’s first roles were in commercials, then he transitioned into recurring roles in soap operas and sitcoms in the ’80s.
One of his first movie roles was in 1993’s What’s Eating Gilbert Grape?
This is where DiCaprio first rose to success, and earned the first of (his many) Academy Award nominations.
In the film, DiCaprio portrayed a mentally impaired teenager.
Alongside co-stars Johnny Depp and Juliette Lewis, his performance was incredibly raw, and gained him critical acclaim.
He built on this success with 1996’s Romeo + Juliet.
The Shakespeare remake was directed by Baz Luhrmann, and has a heavily stylized, dream-like feel.
He played the Romeo to Claire Danes’s Juliet.
Danes was just 18 year old at the time, while DiCaprio was a youthful 22.
DiCaprio found international fame after 1997’s Titanic.
The movie, directed by James Cameron, became the highest-grossing film of all time after its release.
It tells the story of the tragic sinking of the Titanic, in 1912.
The story is told through two young lovers who come from different classes. Kate Winslet plays Rose DeWitt Bukater, a society girl trapped in a loveless engagement, while DiCaprio played the iconic Jack Dawson.
The chemistry between the pair was undeniable.
DiCaprio became a household name after the movie, thanks to his character’s quick wit, inherent likeability, and dreamy, brooding quality.
For many, he’s the ultimate heart-throb.
With his floppy hair, beautiful eyes, and handsome smile, DiCaprio became one of the premier hunks of the ’90s.
And he’s made the most of it.
He’s well known for being a ladies man, and has had a string of beautiful and famous girlfriends – including Naomi Campbell and Blake Lively.
Oh, and of course Gisele Bündchen.
Here the pair are pictured together at the 2005 Oscars. Bundchen is now married to NFL quarterback Tom Brady.
But if you thought dating DiCaprio would be a dream come true?
Well, Gisele has quite a different narrative.
She spoke out about her lifestyle change since dating Leo.
“No longer numbing myself with smoking, drinking, and too much work, I was becoming more and more aware of things that I’d chosen not to look at.”
“Was I alone in wanting to do some serious soul-searching while he stayed the same?”
“In the end, unfortunately, the answer was yes.”
But, another celeb has opened up about how life with DiCaprio is…
DiCaprio’s Titanic co-star Kate Winslet has opened up about her experience working closely with the star.
During her time making the movie, Winslet was open about being bullied for her appearance.
She claims she did not fit conventional beauty standards and was often only up for “fat girl” parts.
But she said that her work with DiCaprio changed her perspective…
“It’s really important that you are the shape that you are,” he said.
Winslet recalled that this comment forever changed the way she thought about her appearance.
And it’s fair to say his love life is almost as famous as his career.
DiCaprio has never been married…
But his string of exes includes some of the universally accepted most beautiful women in the world.
His current girlfriend, Camila Morrone, recently celebrated her birthday.
Camila Morrone has just hit 25 years old.
The legendary model is known to many as the girlfriend of the (eventual) Academy Award winning actor, Leonardo DiCaprio.
But ever since cementing her status as a 25-year-old, many have been saying the same old thing.
Many like to joke that DiCaprio likes to date women under the age of 25.
And now, the same crowd are joking that he may ditch Morrone for someone younger.
After Morrone turned 25, one person tweeted: “It’s the final countdown.”
Another wrote: “Happy Birthday sweetie!!! It’s time for us to break up.”
But alas, it’s all in jest.
And we’d like to hope that DiCaprio and Morrone have a very happy relationship for the rest of time.
But it appears that one particular person does have a theory.
Reddit user called ‘TrustLittleBrother’ created a hilarious but eerily accurate chart following DiCaprio’s relationships from 1999-2019.
And the results were interesting.
Because according to the graph, DiCaprio has never dated someone over the tentative age of 25.
In fact, many of his relationships ended at this age.
If you can believe it, a majority of his longer relationships usually ended when his partner had reached the titular age.
But the pattern is interesting.
Although the graph may have been constructed as a joke, it does perfectly match up with DiCaprio’s dating history.
Gisele Bundchen (1999-2004)…
The first of DiCaprio’s women to receive the graph treatment was Gisele Bundchen, who dated the actor from 1999-2004.
And there was quite the age gap.
When they were dating, Bundchen was only eighteen while DiCaprio was twenty-four. However, the two eventually parted ways. Supposedly, DiCaprio wanted the model to change her lifestyle while refusing to change his – ouch!
Bar Refaeli (2005-2010)…
Next on the list was Bar Refaeli, a supermodel who DiCaprio dated from 2005-2010. The couple met when the model was only twenty years old and were together for 5 years before they broke up. She was twenty-five at the time – funny huh?
Blake Lively (2011)…
This may shock some readers, but next on the list was Gossip Girl actress, Blake Lively, who dated DiCaprio back in 2011 when she was twenty-three.
To date she is the only one of his girlfriends to not be a model.
It seemed Lively broke the model trend, even though she still remains to be one of the most beautiful women working in Hollywood today. At least we know she found her perfect match in Deadpool actor, Ryan Reynolds.
Erin Heatherton (2012)…
Lively was a short-lived romance and 5 months later, DiCaprio had gone back to his model addiction, eventually dating Victoria’s Secret model, Erin Heatherton who was twenty-two at the time. Sadly this romance would also be a short one.
Toni Garrn (2013-2014)…
Next, the actor found himself romancing the German model, Toni Garrn, who was twenty at the time. Their relationship would last until 2014. When Garrn was only twenty-one. Starting to see the pattern yet?
Kelly Rohrbach (2015)…
By this point, DiCaprio was creeping into his forties and began dating swimwear model, Kelly Rohrbach, who was twenty-five.
Nina Adgal (2016-2017)…
After the split then came Danish model, Nina Adgal, who was twenty-four when she first met the famous actor.
Camila Morrone (2018-)…
Now we finally reach the modern day with DiCaprio’s current girlfriend, Argentine model, Camila Morrone. They got together when DiCaprio was forty-four years old, while she was only twenty-one.
DiCaprio is even older than his girlfriend’s mother.
It turns out that Lucila Solá is actually 2 years younger than her daughter’s boyfriend. Which doesn’t sound awkward at all.
But that’s not all, Camila previously discussed her 23-year age gap in an interview with Los Angeles Times back in 2019.
And she hit the nail on the head with this one.
“There are so many relationships in Hollywood and in the history of the world, where people have large gaps,” she said.
“I just think anyone should be able to date who they want to date,” she added.
And now, it seems DiCaprio has undergone a surprising transformation.
And fans cannot believe how different he looks!
Recently, the actor was spotted out without his girlfriend.
On an outing sporting a rather dressed-down look as he strolled the sunny streets of California while rocking a plain black t-shirt, some beige cargo shorts, and a pair of white trainers.
According to The Mirror, the actor topped off the chic yet casual look with a beige baseball cap and some oversized sunglasses.
Looking almost recognizable as he showcased his impressive weight loss while on the solo outing in Malibu.
