A-list actor and much younger model girlfriend strip off in St Tropez

One of the world’s biggest movie stars has been spotted living it up in the south of France with a model girlfriend 23 years his junior.

Hollywood A-lister Leonardo DiCaprio has been spotted holidaying on a yacht in St Tropez with his Italian model girlfriend Vittoria Ceretti.

DiCaprio, 50, and Ceretti, 27, stripped off to enjoy the sunshine, as shown in these candid photos.

They were seen at sea among a close group of friends including Italian businessman Tommaso Buti.

The pair have been dating for at least the past couple of years – back in September 2023, they were spotted making out in a dark Ibiza club at 4.30am.

While they’ve largely stayed silent about their 23-year age-gap romance, Ceretti did give some rare insight into dating one of the world’s most famous actors in a recent interview with Vogue France.

When asked if she believes there’s a “risk” in being labelled DiCaprio’s “girlfriend,” she replied, “Yes.”

“As soon as you’re in a relationship with someone who has a larger following than you, you become ‘girlfriend of’ – or ‘boyfriend of,’ for that matter. And that can be extremely annoying,” she told the mag.

“Suddenly, people are talking about you as so-and-so’s girlfriend who was so-and-so’s ex. So, it’s not nice to think that you can’t love whoever you want, because of the labels people need to stick on you.”

While being a public figure comes with its perks, it also has its drawbacks. She revealed what it’s like having ties with “one of the most desired people in the world.”

“It’s something you learn. 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,” she remarked.

In the same interview, Ceretti said she “preferred not to go into details” about when she first met the famous actor, who has had a string of twenty-something girlfriends throughout his career.

DiCaprio’s famous exes include models such as Camila Morrone, Gigi Hadid, Gisele Bündchen, Bar Refaeli, Nina Agdal and more.

Meanwhile, Ceretti married DJ Matteo Milleri in 2020. They split three years later.
