Leonardo DiCaprio’s Blood Diamond’s director has made claims about the star’s notorious penchant for younger models.
Filmmaker Edward Zwick recalled a hilarious moment where he found the actor, 49, ‘paging through a Victoria’s Secret catalogue’ on the set of the 2006 movie.
In his new book titled Hits, Flops, and Other Illusions: My Fortysomething Years in Hollywood Edward wrote about the moment.
Leonardo starred in Blood Diamond with Jennifer Connelly and Djimon Hounsou and in the book Edward said there was ‘only one instance of even the mildest misbehaviour’ between them, adding: ‘It’s more a testament to their camaraderie than anything else’.
He penned: ‘It seems Leo was currently between gorgeous girlfriends. One morning I walked into the makeup trailer as I often did to discuss the day’s work with him.

Filmmaker Edward Zwick recalled a hilarious moment where he found the actor, 49, ‘paging through a Victoria’s Secret catalogue’ on the set of the 2006 movie (Leo seen with VS model Bar Refaeli in 2010)
‘I found him in the chair waiting for his turn and noticed he was paging through a Victoria’s Secret catalogue.
‘What are you doing?’ I asked. Connelly was in the chair beside him. Without even looking over, she said, ‘Shopping’.’
Leonardo is known for dating younger, beautiful women who he tends to break up with once they reach 25.
Many of them have been models for the lingerie brand including Eva Herzigova, Helena Christensen, Erin Heatherton, Gisele Bundchen and Bar Refaeli.
His latest partner is Vittoria Ceretti, 25, who he was first linked to last year.
The Killers of the Flower Moon star’s love interest has become a sought-after face for adverts and has fronted campaigns for the likes of Chanel, Prada, Dolce & Gabbana and Moschino, among many others.
She has also walked the runway with big names including Kendall Jenner, Claudia Schiffer, Iris Law and Imaan Hammam.
The couple took in the sights and sounds of Art Basel in Miami back in December.

The Oscar winner was spotted at the annual festival – where he previously spent $1 million for art work – enjoying a drink alongside the gorgeous model.
Dressed in a dark shirt, matching pants and his customary baseball cap, Leonardo kept a low-key figure as he made his way through the star-studded crowd.
Vittoria followed suit in a black ensemble as the Italian beauty looked like she just stepped off the runway.
In November, Leo celebrated his 49th birthday with Vittoria, who joined him and other A-list guests at the star-studded bash.
The pair packed on the PDA and were ‘affectionate and kissing throughout the night,’ according to People.
Leo was the life and soul of the party as he performed a rap and danced in front of a star-studded crowd, who gathered at a private residence in the exclusive neighborhood.
Around the time, it was reported Leo is ‘crazy’ about Vittoria – who also cares deeply about environmental causes.
The stunning brunette turns 26 in June and insiders claim he is now dating her exclusively, as she has ‘all of the qualities he looks for in a partner’.
