Kate Winslet pushing Leonardo DiCaprio to ditch bachelor lifestyle and settle down with Vittoria Ceretti
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Kate Winslet has reportedly been urging Leonardo DiCaprio to end his bachelor lifestyle and settle down with his current girlfriend, model Vittoria Ceretti, as per sources.
The actress has apparently taken it upon herself to encourage the notorious bachelor, with whom she shares a sibling-like bond, to finally make it to the altar, as per RadarOnline.
This comes after Winslet's powerful interview on '60 Minutes' with CBS News, where she recalled being harshly body-shamed by her drama teacher early in her career.
Kate Winslet thinks Vittoria Ceretti is the right one for Leonardo DiCaprio
On Kate Winslet taking over the audacious task of pushing Leonardo DiCaprio toward the altar, an insider revealed, "Kate adores Leo and thinks he'd make a great husband and father, and she thinks he's just letting fear of the unknown hold him back."
"She's heard him talk about getting serious with past girlfriends plenty of times, but then he always chickens out and lets them slip through his fingers, and she's worried he'll make the same mistake with Vittoria," they added.
The source also confirmed that Winslet is convinced that Vittoria is the right person for DiCaprio, saying, "He's raved to Kate about how special Vittoria is, and it's obvious she's been a great influence on him because he's back in great shape and really taking care of himself again."
"One of the reasons Kate and Leo get along so well is that she's not afraid to call him out on his bulls**t and tell him what she really thinks. And she's not holding back about his relationship issues. She's told him he needs to grow up and take the next step in life because as far as she's concerned, he's really missing out," they further shared.
Leonardo DiCaprio and Vittoria Ceretti were first linked in August 2023
Leonardo DiCaprio and Vittoria Ceretti first crossed paths at the Cannes Film Festival premiere of 'Killers of the Flower Moon' in May 2023, as per Elle.
Shortly after their initial meeting, the two were spotted together on a yacht in August 2023, followed by an ice cream date in Los Angeles. In early September, they were seen dancing in Ibiza, Spain.
At the time, an insider told Daily Mail, "Vittoria is a beautiful girl, but Leonardo is of course surrounded by many beautiful girls most of the time. But he adores her and she him, they have been spending a lot of time together this summer, traveling around on romantic trips."
"It has obviously led to much chatter within his circle that Leo is ready to hang up his Lothario ways. There have been many women pictured with him, partying with him, but what he has with Vittoria is much more serious," they added.
More recently, the couple was seen in Milan on September 24, leaving the Pinacoteca Ambrosiana Museum with DiCaprio's mother, Irmelin Indenbirken. Ceretti was also by DiCaprio's side during his start-studded 50th birthday bash in November.
