Leonardo DiCaprio’s age-gap relationship with model Vittoria Ceretti has attracted considerable attention since it began in 2023, raising questions about its durability due to their 24-year age difference. Ceretti, who is 27 as of August 2025, and DiCaprio, now 50, face scrutiny intensified by rumors that DiCaprio’s relationships tend to end around his partners’ 25th birthdays.
Concerns Arise amid Ceretti’s Frustrations with Fame Dynamics
Vittoria Ceretti recently opened up about the challenges of dating a high-profile star like DiCaprio, revealing her discomfort in being labeled merely as “Leonardo DiCaprio’s girlfriend.” During an interview with Vogue France, Ceretti expressed her frustration with how society restricts freedom in love by applying rigid labels on relationships. She said,
“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 also highlighted how public perception fuels these difficulties:
“Suddenly, people are talking about you as so-and-so’s girlfriend who was so-and-so’s ex,”
she noted.
“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.”
This acknowledgment hints at tension in their relationship caused by external pressures and personal discomfort.
Insiders Reveal Turmoil and Efforts to Save the Relationship
Sources close to the couple have reacted to Ceretti’s candid remarks, suggesting her statements signal underlying issues. An anonymous insider told RadarOnline that Ceretti’s comments led many to question whether she is considering leaving DiCaprio. The source added that DiCaprio, who typically initiates breakups, is now anxious about the prospect of being the one left.
“It’s had people wondering if she’s got a foot out the door,”
the insider said.
“He has never been dumped in his entire life, and he’s not about to let it happen now.”

Reports indicate DiCaprio is actively trying to mend the relationship to avoid an unwanted breakup. Despite his history of relatively short-lived relationships, this situation appears to have sparked new effort from the actor to maintain stability.
Mixed Signals on Long-Term Commitment
The couple’s future remains uncertain, especially considering DiCaprio’s past relationship patterns. Most of his romances have lasted only a few years. In October 2024, an insider from InTouch Weekly suggested Ceretti hoped to marry DiCaprio eventually. However, a source who spoke to Page Six in early 2025 painted a different picture of the actor’s intentions.
“Leo doesn’t feel the need to tie the knot to make things official in his eyes.”

This statement reflects DiCaprio’s apparent reluctance to formalize his relationship with marriage, despite reportedly being happy with Ceretti. The difference in their views on the future could add further strain moving forward.
What Lies Ahead for DiCaprio and Ceretti?
The spotlight on Leonardo DiCaprio’s age-gap relationship with Vittoria Ceretti exposes complexities both within the couple and from external pressures. Ceretti’s expressed frustrations regarding her public role and the relationship label, combined with insider insights about DiCaprio’s fears of losing control, raise questions about their long-term compatibility. Their differing perspectives on marriage and the shadow of past failed relationships suggest the pair faces significant challenges.
As the couple navigates these difficulties, their relationship will likely continue to draw public interest and scrutiny. Whether they overcome these hurdles or eventually part ways remains to be seen, but the ongoing tension highlights the challenges that often accompany high-profile romances marked by a wide age gap.
