“Leonardo DiCaprio can be a great husband”: Kate Winslet on Why Leo Is Not Getting Married

Leonardo DiCaprio’s Titanic co-star Kate Winslet is strongly nudging her long time friend to finally tie the knot.

The Hollywood star Leonardo DiCaprio has long been known for his notorious dating history, particularly for dating much younger women.

However, his former Titanic co-star and close friend, Kate Winslet, is reportedly encouraging the actor to change his lifestyle amid his relationship with Italian model Vittoria Ceretti.

DiCaprio has been in a relationship with Ceretti since 2023, and while Winslet reportedly believes that Ceretti could be the one, sources also say she understands why the actor has been hesitant to settle down.

The couple has been together since 2023 and was recently seen at the 2025 Met Gala, where the Inception star accompanied Ceretti to the event.

According to reports, Winslet has been nudging DiCaprio more persistently to settle down with Ceretti, especially given her positive influence on him. “Kate adores Leo and thinks he’d make a great husband and father,” a source told RadarOnline.

However, she is also aware of the reasons behind DiCaprio’s hesitation to commit, which she believes have contributed to the breakdown of his previous relationships.

The source said,

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.

Source added, “She’s worried he’ll make the same mistake with Vittoria,” despite having described the model as someone truly special, someone she believes could be ‘the one’ for him.

Previous reports have suggested that DiCaprio has been discussing how special Vittoria Ceretti is, and his recent Met Gala debut with Ceretti makes it even more apparent that the Italian supermodel might be someone truly significant to him.

“He’s raved to Kate about how special Vittoria is,” a source stated.

“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.”

Insiders also noted the close bond between DiCaprio and his Titanic co-star Kate Winslet, who has never been afraid to call him out, especially now that she believes Ceretti could be the one.

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.

DiCaprio and Ceretti have been seen together on numerous occasions.

Sources (People) say the couple genuinely enjoys each other’s company, and DiCaprio appears to be truly taken with Ceretti.
