He’s rather shy when it comes to public displays of affection.
But Leonardo DiCaprio showed off his softer side during a spot of shopping with girlfriend Victoria Ceretti in Los Angeles on Friday.
In a rare moment of public intimacy, the Titanic star, 51, shared a sweet kiss with his girlfriend, 27, as they shopped at A.P.C store in trendy Melrose Place.
Ceretti looked as giddy as ever, grinning happily as they enjoyed a tender romantic moment amidst the hustle and bustle of the store.
The loving displays continued over lunch at Architecture Cafe, where Ceretti clung to her beau as they chatted with a pal.
Arms wrapped around DiCaprio, Ceretti nuzzled her face towards her handsome partner as he fiddled with something at their table.

The tender moment drew a smile from Ceretti
DiCaprio also flashed a rare public smile as he seemingly let out a laugh
Her hand remained on DiCaprio’s shoulder as they enjoyed what looked to be a brief quiet moment.
Ceretti also flashed a megawatt smile as he seemingly laughed at something their pal had said – and one which also garnered a smile out of Ceretti.
While the star typically tries to avoid drawing attention while out and about, this time DiCaprio even ditched the face mask he typically wears when venturing out in public.
He braved the rain in a padded Columbia jacket, baggy jeans, and chunky trainers, whereas Ceretti – a model – displayed her fashion sense in a chic black coat and dainty Chanel purse.
DiCaprio and Ceretti have been dating since 2023.
Over the course of their time together, Ceretti has been seen on occasion with a ring on her wedding finger, but sources have insisted she and the actor are not engaged.
In March, the model admitted she found it ‘extremely annoying’ to be reduced to just ‘Leonardo DiCaprio’s girlfriend.’
Speaking to Vogue France, she sidestepped using DiCaprio’s name, instead referring to him simply as a ‘very, very famous movie star’ while referencing his role in Titanic, which she branded ‘iconic’.

However, Ceretti kept her distance from public labels and shared that the pair’s bond is strong enough to dodge any jealousy.
She said: ‘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.’
DiCaprio has a reputation for dating much younger women, resulting in a fan theory that he has an ‘under 25 rule’ for his girlfriends.
But the actor has debunked that idea in his latest romance.

The model was clearly feeling close to her partner
‘Vittoria’s quite different to the other girls he’s been with,’ a source told The Sun in October.
‘She was harder to impress, she’s very Italian and has high expectations.’
It was added: ‘Immediately she struck up a strong bond with his mother, plus she is very in demand — she’s the one with the full diary and jet-set life, not just following him around.’
Ceretti is said to have a close bond with the actor’s octogenarian mom, Irmelin Indenbirken.

The model was previously married to the Italian DJ Matteo Milleri, 37, who is part of the Berlin-based duo Tale of Us, from 2020 until 2023.
DiCaprio previously dated Camila Morrone for five years.
They got together sometime in 2017, following his breakup with model Nina Agdal, though representatives for both initially denied that they were a pair.
But by summer 2022 they called it quits, shortly before Morrone’s 25th birthday in June.
The Hollywood star had also been linked to Gigi Hadid after they fueled romance speculation in September 2022.
He has also been linked to Gisele Bundchen, Bar Refaeli, Toni Garrn, Nina Agdal and Blake Lively.
