When Leonardo DiCaprio and his long-time girlfriend, Vittoria Ceretti, stepped out for the 2026 Oscars, it was more than just an appearance. It signaled a shift toward something deeper.

The “Killers of the Flower Moon” star has had his share of high-profile romances, but his connection with Ceretti suggests it is far from a fleeting fling.

Now, insiders are hinting that their Oscars moment is a turning point, as DiCaprio is envisioning being long-term with her.

Leonardo DiCaprio Appears To See A Future With Vittoria Ceretti

For the first time since they started dating in 2023, the couple attended a major awards ceremony together, where the “Titanic” star was nominated for best actor for his role in “One Battle After Another.” 

According to a source, the milestone seemed to indicate that DiCaprio is genuinely invested in the relationship and is not closed off to the idea of being together forever. 

“This relationship with Vitoria does feel different and more serious. He genuinely cares for her,” the source exclusively told PEOPLE Magazine. “They may not be ready to get married, but for the first time, Leo is open to a serious future.”

Adding to DiCaprio’s vision is Ceretti’s being “independent,” which is said to be appealing to DiCaprio, especially given his busy filming schedules. 

The source added that a noticeable shift is how DiCaprio “is much more openly affectionate with Vittoria than his friends have ever seen him be with any other girlfriends.”

Leonardo DiCaprio And Vittoria Ceretti Sparked Engagement Rumors 

Although the insider has disclosed that DiCaprio is envisioning a future with Ceretti, it remains unclear when, or if, the couple will officially take the steps towards marriage. 

The pair previously fueled engagement buzz in 2024 after a tip surfaced on the gossip platform DeuxMoi, prompting fans to rush to social media with congratulatory posts.

However, as The Blast reported, a close source to the couple dismissed the engagement speculation as “nothing more than an internet rumor.” 

The insider revealed that the actor has not proposed to Ceretti, adding that such claims surface almost monthly and should only be taken seriously if confirmed directly by DiCaprio himself.

Vittoria Ceretti Revealed What It Is Like Dating ‘The Revenant’ Actor

DiCaprio and the runway star were first seen together, reportedly in August 2023, in Santa Barbara on an ice cream date. That same year, sources revealed that they were an item, praising the model as “cute, sweet and charming,” whom DiCaprio really liked.

 In April 2025, the 27-year-old, posing for the cover of Vogue France, spoke about navigating a relationship with someone as globally famous as DiCaprio.

According to PEOPLE Magazine, Ceretti said it is “something you learn,” adding, “If what you’re experiencing is real, if you know you love each other, then there’s no reason to be alarmed. Because love protects and gives confidence.”

Ceretti was previously married to Italian DJ Matteo Milleri in 2020, which she announced on Instagram. However, the quiet disappearance of her husband from her social media in late 2022 suggested that the chapter had ended. 

The ‘Wolf Of Wall Street’ Actor Seen In Playful Chat With Gwyneth Paltrow

While insiders insist DiCaprio is focused on Ceretti, his brief interaction with Gwyneth Paltrow at the award ceremony on Sunday stirred curiosity. 

As The Blast reported, the two were seen laughing and leaning in close, with DiCaprio even holding her hand at one point.

The moment caught attention partly because Paltrow previously revealed that he once tried to pursue her romantically early in their careers.

However, she declined DiCapro’s advance, joking that he was already “very loose with the goods from when he was 19.”

Leonardo DiCaprio’s Refreshed Look Is Suggested To Be Inspired By His Girlfriend 

DiCaprio also appeared noticeably different at the 98th Academy Awards and more refreshed compared to recent years, sparking speculation about what caused the change.

While some credited his styling, others believed it reflected deeper lifestyle shifts, especially given his long association with partying, smoking, and drinking.

Per The Blast, experts suggested that cutting back on habits like alcohol could have been what significantly improved his appearance. Attention also turned to his relationship with Ceretti, with insiders claiming she has had a positive influence on him.
