Leonardo DiCaprio and Italian model Vittoria Ceretti are still going strong.

The Revenant star was first linked to Ceretti in August 2023. In photos obtained by Page Six, the pair were seen walking around Santa Barbara, Calif., while enjoying iced coffees and ice cream cones.

"She is very cute, sweet and charming. Leo seems to really like her," a source told PEOPLE in April 2024 of DiCaprio and Ceretti's budding romance.

The actor was previously linked to model Gigi Hadid, who is reportedly a friend of Ceretti’s. The two models have known each other for years and have worked together on a number of projects. They were even photographed hugging backstage at the Met Gala in 2021.

In addition to her collaborations with Hadid, Ceretti has graced the cover of numerous international magazines and appeared in ad campaigns for distinguished brands such as Prada, Bulgari and Gucci.

So, who is Vittoria Ceretti? Here is everything to know about the Italian model who is dating Leonardo DiCaprio.

At age 14, Ceretti made her modeling debut at Elite Model Look, one of the most prestigious international modeling competitions in the world. She was chosen as a finalist and signed with the agency. Since then, Ceretti’s career has been met with nonstop success.

She has walked for Versace Dior, Celine and Louis Vuitton, and fronted beauty and fashion ad campaigns for the likes of Tory Burch, Dolce & Gabbana, Bulgari and Prada. One of the early moments that really solidified her career, however, was her first beauty contract with Chanel.

“That’s when I was like, ‘What happened? How did I get here?” Ceretti recalled during an interview with Vogue.

Another milestone? Her first American Vogue cover. “Me as an 18-year-old being asked to be on that cover? I mean it’s still shocking to me to think about it,” she added.

In addition to Elite Model Management, Ceretti is represented by The Society Management in New York.

She was first spotted with Leonardo DiCaprio in August 2023

Ceretti has reportedly been spending time with The Wolf of Wall Street actor since August 2023. In a video obtained by Page Six, the pair could be seen dancing with one another at a nightclub in Ibiza. Elsewhere in the clip, the two are spotted sharing a kiss. Previously in August, the outlet reported that the rumored couple were seen grabbing iced coffees and ice cream while visiting Santa Barbara.

In August 2024, Ceretti and DiCaprio were photographed together in Italy on vacation, where they were joined by some of the actor's celebrity friends, including Tobey Maguire. While swimming in Sardinia, DiCaprio appeared to suffer a jellyfish sting, and in the photos, Ceretti seemed to come to his aid along with one of their yacht's crew members.

She got married in 2020

Ceretti married Italian DJ Matteo Milleri on Jan. 6, 2020. According to Grazia magazine, the pair tied the knot in a beautiful ceremony in Ibiza overlooking the Mediterranean Sea. The bride wore a flowy, A-line gown by Jacquemus, which she paired with a tulle veil and white heels.

“01.06.2020,” Ceretti wrote on Instagram underneath a carousel of wedding photos. She ended the post with a white heart and “from this day forward.”

However, in late 2022, Ceretti stopped sharing photos of Milleri on social media.

She didn’t always want to be a model

Ceretti may look like a natural on the runway, but for a long time she wasn’t sure if modeling was something she wanted to do long-term. “I didn’t always want to be a model, but once I started, I realized how much I loved it,” she told Vogue, following her first cover photoshoot for Vogue Italia.

Apart from the beauty and fashion, Ceretti said one of the best perks of her job is being able to jetset around the world.

“With this job, I got to see cities like New York, and even move here, which I never imagined doing. Meeting new, creative people almost every day is also a nice bonus—so many people in fashion have rich knowledge and ideas that I couldn’t absorb anywhere else,” she explained.

She worked closely with Karl Lagerfeld

Over the course of her career, Ceretti developed a strong working relationship with German fashion designer Karl Lagerfeld, who died in 2019. In his honor, the 2023 Met Gala was titled “Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty,” and Ceretti was in attendance. Before walking the red carpet, she penned a heartfelt tribute to Lagerfeld on Instagram, writing how “grateful” she is to have known him personally.

“Dear Karl,” she began. “I’ve been spending the past 4 years thinking about you nearly everyday. I remember the sound of your voice like you were speaking to me yesterday or the way you pronounced my name with your French accent. The feeling of your leather gloves while you’d hold my hand proudly, looking at the computer screen to see the pictures we had just shot together.”

She concluded, “You gave me so much. I will be grateful for you forever!”
