by

Leonardo DiCaprio sparked some gossip at the 2026 Oscars when he appeared to be playfully flirting with Gwyneth Paltrow, even though he was there with his girlfriend, model Vittoria Ceretti.

The 51-year-old Academy Award winner, though he didn’t win Best Actor—Michael B. Jordan did—was seen happily talking and getting close to the stunning 53-year-old actress.

People immediately noticed a strong connection between DiCaprio and Paltrow, and they even held hands while having an animated conversation.

Gwyneth Paltrow, married to Brad Falchuk, subtly tried to end the conversation, but Leonardo DiCaprio seemed eager to continue talking to her.

Shortly after, DiCaprio was spotted taking his seat next to his beautiful Italian girlfriend, Ceretti, at the Dolby Theatre.

However, Paltrow has repeatedly stated she wasn’t interested in a romantic relationship with the actor, and previously shared that she rejected his advances many years ago.

In a 2023 interview on the Call Her Daddy podcast, the actress revealed she hadn’t given the actor a chance, mainly due to his public image back then.

Gwyneth stated she’d never kissed Leonardo DiCaprio, though he had attempted to in the past. She implied he was sexually experienced from a very young age, around 19.

Leonardo DiCaprio has been seeing Italian model Vittoria Ceretti, 27, since 2023. This relationship is notable because it seems to be breaking his pattern of ending relationships before his partners turn 25.

Fans have often talked about the age difference between them, and the fact that he made an exception to his usual preference for dating younger women.

The playful interaction at the Oscars happened while people were already talking about Leonardo DiCaprio’s look, with many noticing his recently dyed hair and noticeable moustache.

DiCaprio debuted a noticeably darker mop of hair as he posed on the red carpet in a classic tuxedo.

Adding to the excitement, DiCaprio’s mustache quickly became a popular topic of conversation, with some playfully calling it a ‘porn stache.’ Fans even joked that Pedro Pascal must have given DiCaprio his mustache, as Pascal didn’t have his own facial hair at the event.

I have to say, seeing him walk the runway was incredible! He’s completely changed his look, but somehow still managed to look unbelievably stylish and put-together. Honestly, everyone was talking about his transformation – it was hard to focus on anything else, even when his gorgeous girlfriend, Vittoria Ceretti, came to support him. They both looked amazing, but all eyes were definitely on him and his new image!

Social media users reacted strongly to Leonardo DiCaprio’s facial hair at an awards ceremony, with one joking that he’d ‘stolen’ Pedro Pascal’s mustache. Another simply described it as ‘amazing’.

The reactions kept coming on social media. 

A fan joked on social media that Pedro Pascal had donated his mustache to Leonardo DiCaprio, posting a comparison photo of the two actors with the hashtag #Oscars.

Another added, ‘Leonardo DiCaprio has a mustache and Pedro Pascal is clean shaven.’

Yet more piled on, with one writing that he looked ‘the most chopped he ever chopped.’ 

One even compared him to a famous stand-up comedian, posting, ‘He looks like Shane Gillis.’

A few offered a sideways compliment, with one declaring, ‘He’s actually attractive for an old man.’

Many, however, were here for the bold new look, praising his red carpet swagger.

Leonardo DiCaprio always makes a statement on the red carpet. He’s classic and stylish in a tuxedo and bow tie, and his mustache adds a confident touch. He looks effortlessly cool and like a strong contender for an award.
