Leonardo DiCaprio Is Allegedly Dating A 19 Y.O. Model, And Netizens Are Roasting Him With Memes (35 Posts)
At first we thought it was a joke, but the pattern kept repeating itself over and over again. We realized that it was a rule, it became a law like Newton’s Law. We could call the new phenomenon the Leonardo DiCaprio Law, which essentially tells you not to date anyone over 25 no matter how old you are yourself. It also requires breaking up with the person around their 25th birthday, so if you want to stay with them for longer, it’s best to find someone who is the youngest legal option possible.
Because that is how the Hollywood star seems to function. He was spotted spending time with 19-year-old model Eden Polani at a music release party in Los Angeles for Ebony Riley's EP. It is important to say that neither Leonardo nor Eden denied or confirmed their relationship, so it’s all just speculation for now, but it wouldn’t be the first time when a celebrity couple were spotted together just to announce their relationship later.

Despite it being rumors, it didn’t stop the internet from running with it and creating memes, jokes and expressing opinions about it. And the opinion is that it’s wrong. Romantics would say that age is just a number and it doesn’t matter for love, but realists believe that DiCaprio purposefully targets younger women and don’t approve of that.

In August last year, Leonardo DiCaprio ended his relationship with Camila Morrone, just a couple of months after her 25th birthday, confirming the internet’s theory that the Hollywood star does that on purpose and his girlfriends do have an expiration date.
Bored Panda collected the reactions people had then into this article and they weren’t positive, as people were openly mocking the actor and accusing him of being a predator because he only targeted young women without exception.
It amazes me that Dane Cook has a comedy career...but also, that joke did make me laugh.
The Oscar-winning actor turned 48 last November and it seems that he is sticking to his old habits because if the new rumors are confirmed as the truth, he is now dating a 19-year-old model.
Leonardo DiCaprio attended Ebony Riley’s EP release party and a photo captured him sitting next to Eden Polani. There is not a lot known about her, but she is a model signed with the talent management agency ITM Models, a social media personality and Instagram influencer.
That made people think that the two of them must be dating, because it sometimes happens that if a single celebrity is spotted spending time with someone who might possibly be a love interest, it can turn out to be true and be sort of an introduction to their relationship.
We might not know if this is the case until DiCaprio or Polani announce it officially, but unofficially, there were already statements given.
Rose was luckier off living with just his youthful memory, it turns out.
Various websites that specialize in pop culture and celebrity life like TMZ, People, Page Six and others report that a source close to Leo told them people are assuming something that is not true and not every woman the actor is seen next to is his new girlfriend.
The source has been quoted, “Leo and Eden just so happened to have been seated next to each other at the party, and were hanging in the same group… Just because Leo might be talking to or sitting with a girl doesn't mean he's dating her."
Between August and January, Leonardo DiCaprio was linked with other women too. People were actually very surprised when it surfaced that the actor might be dating Gigi Hadid as a photo showed them at a New York Fashion Week party at Casa Cipriani in September, and were almost proud of him because the model is 26 years old, but it was never confirmed.
The man was also spotted with 23-year-old actress Victoria Lamas when they were leaving The Birds Streets Club in West Hollywood's Sunset Boulevard. They left separately, but got into the same car, so people assumed there was a relationship blooming.
Their suspicions were denied by the woman’s dad, who told the public, “She's fond of him, obviously. But they're not dating, and she does not want that out there because that would be really bad. It'd be embarrassing for her if he should happen to read something that said that they're dating and they're not."
He has to right? I mean, 48 and 19...I can't even comprehend the difference and I'm 35. That's soo much difference.
Do you think that this time the rumors are true? Do you think that sitting next to each other at a party means something? Also, how do you feel about the age difference if it turned out that the two of them were a couple? Do you think it’s none of people’s business or should the problem be addressed? Let us know your thoughts in the comments.
Awww she's adorable. Happy birthday sweetie! You're better off without Leo.
This is totally predatory behaviour. But since Leo is a Hollywood star, it’s seen a quirky and alright.
"Look look....I could have totally fit on that door too right??!"

I remember there were people on reddit who just responded to this with "she's legally an adult! it's not creepy! she can make her own decisions!!", as if the LEGALITY of it was the thing with which most people took issue. A quick rule of thumb- not everything that's legal is morally right, and not everything that's morally right is legal.
oh I agree, 100% legal, but still creepy. I am mid 30s and find that age gap for me creepy. However she is a small time model, like a lot of Leo's former GF's, who then get bigger gigs after dating him. It seems like a very creepy business arrangement, he dates a barely legal model, and they get the professional connections and hook ups they need to get bigger gigs. It's creepy, but I can see why she is interested in it.

well you can frame it as a creepy old man thing... or it could also be framed as young aspiring model makes self-aware transactional relationship dreams a reality;. either way it impacts my life in way no as much as the pile of dishwashing demanding more of my attention right now.
Agree. Additionally even young women, in the vicinity to him, should know, by all the past examples, that they only got 6 to max 24 month to boost their own career before he ends things. If there's still one female outside, who really thinks to turn this guy into a loving husband, I have pitty with her. I mean even George Clooney getting married couldn't rip Leonardo out off his bachelor trip.

There are many celebrities with just as much or even bigger age gaps. David Hasselhoff & Hayley Roberts - 27 years Dennis Quaid & Laura Savoie - 39 years David Foster & Katharine McPhee - 35 years Sir Patrick Stewart and American jazz singer Sunny Ozell - 38 years Dolph Lundgren & Emma Krokdal - 38 years Robert Duvall married his fourth wife, Luciana Pedraza - 41 years It's none of our business, at the end of the day.
How old were they when they got together? THAT is the issue.

For those defending this, tell me why you find this okay? I am 99% sure the excuse if either perverted, predatory, or sexist. This is not okay and there’s never a good reason. The fact is younger women are typically more attractive (sexist) and easier to manipulate (predatory).
Because the women were groomed and the men are predators.

I completely agree with not dating someone more than 10 years difference. I do have one friend who is dating a man 7 years older and he gets shamed from some people. There is nothing wrong with an age gap as long as it is not too extreme and both people are on board with it, and I hope people realize that too.
My parents have a nine-year age gap. They were romantics and nobody really thought anything of it. As a matter of fact, my mother hit on my father first. Still, I wouldn't ever date a guy more than ten years older than me. Love is love, but so is common sense.
Dear Mr. DiCaprio. If you've been dating younger women in order to try some Dorian Grey type of thing, it's my sad duty to tell you that it ain't working. I mean, not at all. And if you're considering the old fashioned way - bathing in the blood of young virgins - remember you're in southern Cailfornia and you probably won't be able to manage even a sponge bath. Maybe the local lady cougars club will let you form some sort of male auxiliary. Or move to Florida and search for the Fountain of Youth. At least there you won't be the most embarrassing has-been in the state.
If his future 80 years-old self decides to get a new 19 years old GF, that means she won't be born until 2036. 13 years from now.
There's a proverb in my country: If you want to make a fool of an old man, give him a young woman.
I'm 54.Can you imaging the carry on there would be if a woman my age ,whether she be famous or not) was dating a 25 year old boy? it's the same age difference. Not that I have any desire to because a. I have 3 kids the same age or older b. I have handbags older than that and c. I have no desire to have to "mother a partner" ,cause it's gross. And it is gross for ol' Leo to be even checking out a 19 year old child ,let alone dating her! If he's old enough to be her Dad ,he's too old to be her "Boy"friend.
I definitely don't see the appeal in dating someone 30 years younger than me, or 30 years older than me, but at the end of the day they're both adults. If a 19 year old isn't mature enough to make a decision like that, then where are her parents to prevent her from dating creeps, parents who in this case might be younger than Leo btw... I really can't believe that all his girlfriends aren't dating him because of fame, so in the end they're both getting what they want, completely conscious of the situation
@Dr_Atlas 💯 Definitely. I can't imagine dating a guy more than 10 years older (if that.)

Imagine that when she'll decide to have a baby - median now is 35 - he will be 65 year old grandpa. Do you really see him taking his 10 years old kid to play sports as a 75 year old? No? I thought so. Also it IS different when you get older and gain life experience & fully developed brain [it ends developing around 25]. A 45 year old widow or widower would have something in common to talk about with a 75 year old. It is not about being legal or not - it is legal for 15 to have sex and so whatr? It is about him finding young girls to groom them. If that would be in India or Pakistan - everyone would cry out loud about childbrides and being forced to do so. When it is a holluywood star - it is fine, because law allows so.
They are legal age, and consenting. When that changes then I will judge him.
I love this! 2023... The year where we expect everyone to RESPECT WHO WE ARE (and that we should we be tollerant to regardless if we ACTUALLY agree) but the first to judge when two consenting adults are doing their own thing. Perhaps it's none of anyone's business? I don't see a gun to her head? She seems happy? It seems the only thing humanity hasn't got to grips with is hypocrisy...
ew. Guys. The rule is: If she's young enough to be your daughter, then the answer is NO. You can technically be a dad at 12, so that's the figure. No more than 12 y difference. Thanks.
I'd say that depends on the age? Like, noone is getting worked up about 50 year olds dating 62 year olds, right? It's mostly about the fact that a grown man is dating what is basically a child

@Gary, It’s that Leo has the power in the relationship. That’s why it’s predatory.
