Leonardo DiCaprio has become known for dating under 25 year olds

A Playboy model has claimed Leonardo DiCaprio had a surprising answer for her when she asked him why he doesn’t date women over the age of 25.

The Titanic actor has quite the film resume behind him, and there’s no doubt he’s been a heartthrob for millions of people across the globe.

DiCaprio’s love life is never too far away from the headlines, garnering a lot of attention over the years due to his involvement with women up to the age of 25.

Frequent social media users will be well aware of the countless memes made about DiCaprio over the fact he ‘breaks up’ with partners when they reach the age of 25.

In 2016, DiCaprio was linked to actor Nina Agdal, but the pair went their separate ways when Agdal was 25 years old.

And one of DiCaprio’s more recent relationships with model Camila Morrone also ended just one month after she turned 25.

Earlier this year, Playboy model Hieke Konings shared what happened during an encounter she apparently had with DiCaprio during an invite-only nightclub in Los Angeles.

Konings, who appeared on the Dutch cover of Playboy, said: “I saw him sitting there in his black hoodie and black cap and we made eye contact.”

Konings claimed DiCaprio’s manager told her the actor wanted to talk to her, so she went over to his table and took the opportunity to ask DiCaprio about the alleged under-25-trend.”

According to the model, DiCaprio had a surprising response as he admitted to being ‘guilty’.

Konings further claimed she shared a snog with DiCaprio, but despite what many of his fans might expect, she said it was ‘not the best’ she’d had.

Konings then said she told the star she ‘didn’t know him well enough’ to take anything further, to which DiCaprio responded ‘sweetly’.

It’s unclear when Konings’ alleged encounter with DiCaprio took place.

DiCaprio has been most recently linked to Italian model Vittoria Ceretti – who, it’s worth noting, turned 26 in June this year.

Ceretti has modelled for the likes of Alexander McQueen and Versace during her career, and in November, an insider told Us Weekly DiCaprio was ‘completely smitten’ with the model.

“It’s going so well that Leo’s actually being exclusive,” the source claimed. “Vittoria is all he thinks about.”
