DiCaprio first met Gisele Bündchen, a Brazilian model, in 1999. They dated from 1999 to 2005. He had a relationship with Israeli model Bar Refaeli from 2005 to 2011, during which time he visited Refaeli's hometown of Hod HaSharon and had a meeting with Israeli president Shimon Peres.
In 2017, he began dating German fashion model Toni Garrn, whom he had previously dated from July 2013 to December 2014. From about 2017 to 2022, DiCaprio was dating American actress and model Camila Morrone. Some people have criticized him because of the age differences in his relationships. According to some reports, he had sixteen relationships over the course of three decades.

Does Leonardo DiCaprio have a charitable nature?
Leonardo DiCaprio and his mother contributed $35,000 in 1998 to establish a "Leonardo DiCaprio Computer Center" at the Los Feliz library, which was close to his childhood home. It reopened in early 1999 after being rebuilt following the 1994 Northridge earthquake.
In an effort to raise money for the nursing home where Millvina Dean—the final surviving passenger of the RMS Titanic—was residing, actor Leonardo DiCaprio joined forces with Canadian singer Celine Dion, director James Cameron, and co-star Kate Winslet in May 2009. To help Dean, DiCaprio personally contributed $20,000.
He gave $1 million in 2010 to help with the earthquake relief efforts in Haiti. In 2013, DiCaprio gave $61,000 to the GLAAD organization for gay rights. DiCaprio donated $1 million via his foundation to the United Way Harvey Recovery Fund after Hurricane Harvey struck in 2017.

What is the name of Leonardo DiCaprio’s island?
DiCaprio invested $1.75 million to buy a 104-acre private island in Belize in 2005. He left the island largely uninhabited for many years before announcing in 2016 that he would be converting his island, Blackadore Caye, into an eco-friendly private resort of the same name.
The most recent plans call for Blackadore Caye to have 36 estate-style homes and 36 bungalows, which will be offered for sale to private individuals. The island's facilities, including all of the homes, will be entirely powered by environmentally friendly renewable energy. Private homes are expected to fetch between $5 million and $15 million each, according to estimates.
How was Leonardo DiCaprio’s early career?
DiCaprio struggled to find an agent at the start of his career. When he finally did, he advised DiCaprio to adopt the name Lenny Williams in order to appeal to American audiences, but the actor rejected the suggestion. Even after 100 auditions, DiCaprio remained jobless for a year and a half. DiCaprio decided to give up acting as a result of this lack of success, but his father persuaded him to continue.
He kept going to auditions, spurred on by his father and the need to provide for his mother. When a casting director heard about him from a talent agent who knew his mother's friend, DiCaprio was offered roles in about 20 commercials. Bob Villard, a well-known headshot photographer and manager, was DiCaprio's representative at the time.
He made his acting debut on television in the early 1990s with roles in “The Outsiders” pilot episode and one episode of the soap opera “Santa Barbara," in which he played the young Mason Capwell. When Leonardo DiCaprio was chosen to star in “Parenthood,” a television series based on the same-named comedy movie from 1989, his career prospects improved.
He received two nominations for "Best Young Actor in a Daytime Series" for “Santa Barbara" and "Best Young Actor Starring in a New Television Series” for "Parenthood" for his work that year at the 12th Youth in Film Awards.
