Leo'S Low-Key Life: Dicaprio'S Secret To Staying Out Of The Spotlight

Leonardo's Low-Key Philosophy

Leonardo DiCaprio, the Oscar-winning actor and former child star, has once again captured attention – but this time, it's not for his roles on the big screen. In an eye-opening interview with Time magazine, DiCaprio, now 51, shared his ongoing battle to keep his private life under wraps. Named the 2025 entertainer of the year, he revealed his 'simple philosophy' for maintaining privacy: "Only get out there and do something when you have something to say or you have something to show for it. Otherwise, just disappear as much as you possibly can."

“I think my simple philosophy is only get out there and do something when you have something to say or you have something to show for it,” DiCaprio shared.

Romance Under the Radar

DiCaprio's personal life has often been under the microscope, especially his relationships with younger women. Most recently, he's been linked to Italian supermodel Vittoria Ceretti. The couple made waves at the Met Gala in May, with DiCaprio at 50 and Ceretti at 26. This age-gap romance is just one of the many aspects of his life that fans can't get enough of.

Lessons from Titanic's Success

Reflecting on his rise to fame, DiCaprio shared how the overwhelming success of "Titanic" taught him to cherish his privacy. "I was like, OK, how do I have a long career? Because I love what I do," he said. "And I feel like the best way to have a long career is to get out of people's face[s]." Clearly, this strategy has paid off, as DiCaprio continues to enjoy a thriving career while keeping the gossip mills at bay.

Remembering Diane Keaton

DiCaprio also took a moment to remember his late co-star, Diane Keaton, with whom he shared the screen in the 1996 film "Marvin's Room." "She had the most incredible laugh," DiCaprio reminisced. "I kind of lived to make her laugh every day on set because it was so infectious." Keaton, who passed away at 79, left a lasting impression on DiCaprio, who fondly recalls her as a source of joy and laughter during their time together.
