Leonardo DiCaprio, 48, was recently spotted sitting next to Eden Polani, a 19-year-old model. A seemingly innocuous event which, however, did not fail to arouse in some suspicions of romance between them, accompanied by indignant comments regarding their age difference.
According to British media The Independent, actor Leonardo DiCaprio and “his new flame”, Eden Polani, were spotted at the end of January while partying together.
A photo, distributed by several publications and widely relayed on the networks, indeed reveals the star of Titanic and the model of ITM Model Management, side by side during the launch party of the album of the model Riley Montana (also known as Ebony Riley), in Los Angeles.
Rumors that Leonardo DiCaprio would be in a relationship with the Franco-Israeli have been going strong. Just like the critics around the age difference of the actor with the one “who was not even born when his hit film Titanic was released in theaters”, notes the DailyMail.
The young woman would not be her first story with an older man. “Before her last romance, Eden Polani was linked to Gil Ofer, 31, son of billionaire businessman Idan Ofer,” reports Page Six. The couple made headlines last year following Gil, who previously dated Sofia Richie, posted photos of himself alongside the model on Instagram. “They had kept their romance a secret because of their age,” the site says.
For his part, Leonardo DiCaprio has long been renowned (and criticized) for his many (very young) conquests, but does he really frequent Eden?
A source on Tuesday reminded People that “Leo and Eden were sitting next to each other at the party and hanging out in the same group… But (that) it’s not because Leo is in talking or sitting with a girl that he is dating her.”
The DailyMail wonders, however, why Eden Polani has this Tuesday all of a sudden disappeared from instagram. “On Tuesday morning she shared an image taken from what appears to be a New York hotel, tagging the location and writing: ‘Long time no see’. “But just over an hour following the photo was posted – amid furious outrage that erupted on social media over their so-called romance – Eden had mysteriously taken down the photo,” the tabloid notes. .
Leonardo “enjoys his celibacy”
After splitting from his girlfriend of four years – model Camila Morrone, 25 – in August, DiCaprio reportedly spent time with a 22-year-old Ukrainian-born Maria Beregova, whom the tabloid then suspected to be his new girlfriend.
Then the actor reportedly had a brief affair with 27-year-old model Gigi Hadid. They were last seen together in New York in November, leaving a restaurant.
The tabloids have since credited Leonardo with a relationship with model Victoria Lamas, 23, alongside whom he was seen leaving a club on Sunset Boulevard in West Hollywood in December.
The young woman’s father, actor Lorenzo Lamas (star of the 1990s series “The Rebel”), spoke to the New York Post shortly following this public outing and said that his daughter and the actor weren’t together. “She obviously likes him. But they are not dating (…) It would be embarrassing for her if she happened to read something that said they were dating when this is not the case, ”he added.
Leonardo DiCaprio wouldn’t actually be seriously engaged with anyone. As TMZ reminds us, which had published photos of the actor “surrounded by a ton of sexy women in bikinis” on a yacht in Saint-Barth during his vacation – “he is enjoying his single life”.
