Like everyone else, you’ve had one thing on your mind this Memorial Day weekend: where and with whom is Leonardo DiCaprio yachting? Well, we can answer the first part with a degree of clarity, but the second part still remains a little vague.
Following the triumphant debut of his latest film, Killers of the Flower Moon, at the Cannes Film Festival a little over a week ago, the 48-year-old Oscar-winner has remained in the Mediterranean. He was spotted, first by TMZ and later by the Daily Mail, floating around on a superyacht off the coast of Sardinia.
If your geography is rusty, Sardinia is the larger of the two big islands that sit in the Mediterranean between France and Italy. The smaller of the two, Corsica, is to the north. Corsica is a territorial region of France, and Sardinia is an autonomous administrative region of Italy. Indeed, sardines get their name from the island of Sardinia. (I used to think sardines were gross until I visited this part of the world, and then realized that I’d simply never eaten good sardines.)
As far as who the Titanic and Revenant star was yachting with, alas, we can not give you any names. V.F. has reached out to the star’s representatives, who are well within their right to write back, “the man is on vacation, what is it your business?” We’ll let you know.
We can say, however, that should you check out the images that the Daily Mail has published, you’ll find that the actor, wearing light blue swimming trunks and, in some shots, a beige baseball cap, is joined by hale and hearty young men, and a young woman in a pink thong bikini. The British news outlet describes her as a “gorgeous brunette beauty flaunt[ing] her jaw-dropping figure.” Who are we to argue?
It is also believed that DiCaprio does not own the yacht.
If you recall, Leo rang in 2023 by cruising around St. Barts on a yacht with then-23-year-old Victoria Lamas. The man loves boats and, it has been noted once or twice, that he enjoys the company of young women.
For much of this year, he was linked to Gigi Hadid, but if you vigorously study all the graphs and charts, there is evidence to suggest that they are now back in the friend zone. At Coachella in April, DiCaprio was seen, as per Page Six, “looking cozy” with Irina Shayk, the 37-year-old Russian model who co-parents a 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥 with Bradley Cooper. Leo and Irina are old chums (they hung out together at Cannes in 2015, as per People). She was, indeed, at Cannes again this year, wearing a remarkably revealing outfit, even by “Russian model at Cannes” standards.
