I Salute Leonardo DiCaprio and His Big-Ass Yacht
The man is having the summer vacation of our dreams.
There are two things about Leonardo DiCaprio that I know will always be true: 1/ He’s a man of leisure, and 2/ He's a man of luxury. When DiCaprio not starring in a blockbuster, or dating a young model, the 48-year-old actor can often be found unwinding in a wildly glamorous manner.
This week, he did exactly that, while cruising around the Amalfi coast in his private yacht. DiCaprio invited his dad, stepmom, and niece along for the ride. Some may find that excessive! They might wonder, Why charter a big-ass boat for just four people? Wouldn’t a smaller ship be easier to manage? I think the answer is pretty simple: Because it's fun! And Leonardo DiCaprio has yacht money! I’d do the same. Wouldn’t you?
Page Six obtained pictures from the affair, showing DiCaprio lounging around his floating estate and jumping in the choppy water.. Thankfully, there were no icebergs around to ruin the fun. This feels like a nice moment for the actor to relax after promoting his latest movie, Killers of the Flower Moon , at the Cannes Film Festival. (When I want to relax, I walk around the block and get a Big Gulp from 7/11. But, alas, this isn’t about me, and I doubt Leonardo DiCaprio drinks Big Gulps from 7/11.)
The actor's upcoming movie is based on David Grann’s popular nonfiction book, Killers of the Flower Moon: The Osage Murders and the Birth of the FBI . DiCaprio stars in the project alongside Robert DeNiro, Jesse Plemons, Brendan Fraser, John Lithgow, and Lily Gladstone. The crime drama follows a series of murders that affect the indigenous Osage Nation after oil is found on their land. When more and more people go missing, the FBI swoops in to investigate.
Killers of the Flower Moon will premiere in theaters on October 2. That gives good ol’ Leo at least a few more months to relax before hopping back into movie-star mode. I, for one, can’t wait to see what he does next.

Leonardo DiCaprio and Girlfriend Vittoria Ceretti Soak Up the Sun on Yacht in Italy
DiCaprio was first linked to Ceretti in August 2023 when they were spotted in California with iced coffee and ice cream
CIAOPIX/COBRA TEAM / BACKGRID
Leonardo DiCaprio and Vittoria Ceretti are soaking up the sun in Italy.
The pair were photographed heading out for a swim while yachting Thursday, Aug. 1, off the coast of Sardinia amid their European getaway.
Ceretti, 26, could be seen in a brown two-piece bikini climbing down the steps of the yacht with the Inception actor, 49, on her heels as he followed her. He wore dark green swim trunks and a silver chain around his neck.
Dicaprio’s close pal Tobey Maguire was also spotted in Sardinia packing on the PDA with model Babette Strijbos , with photos showing them hugging and kissing while taking a dip at a beach.
Earlier this week, The Great Gatsby stars stopped by Portofino on their vacation, as seen in photos obtained by Page Six . At one point, Maguire could even be seen riding on a jet ski with Ceretti as the passenger, with both of them wearing life vests.
The news comes a few months after an insider told PEOPLE that DiCaprio was getting closer with the Italian model after they had "had a date night with friends" at celebrity hotspot Giorgio Baldi in Santa Monica, Calif.
"The restaurant has been Leo's favorite for years and he's enjoyed date nights with Vittoria several times," the source said in April. "She's, of course, Italian, so she takes care of ordering all the favorites."

"She is very cute, sweet and charming. Leo seems to really like her," the source added. "They sat next to each other and he had his arm around her. They dined for hours and all had a great time."
In September, DiCaprio and Ceretti spent time with the actor’s mother, Irmelin Indenbirken , in Milan, as seen in photos obtained by Page Six . The couple was spotted with her touring the Pinacoteca Ambrosiana Museum.
The Killers of the Flower Moon actor was first linked to Ceretti in August 2023 when they were seen walking around Santa Barbara, Calif., while consuming iced coffee and ice cream. A month later, they were spotted again dancing closely.
Ceretti was also present for DiCaprio's 49th birthday party in Beverly Hills in November. At that time, a source told PEOPLE they were “affectionate and kissing throughout the night."
DiCaprio was previously linked to supermodel Gigi Hadid between September 2022 and February 2023.

Shirtless leonardo dicaprio, 48, pictured on yacht in ibiza with another young model pal.
He’s nothing if not consistent.
Leonardo DiCaprio was up to his old tricks as he relaxed on a mega-yacht with a young model in Ibiza, Spain, on Sunday.
The “Titanic” star, 48, was photographed cruising the Mediterranean Sea with 22-year-old Meghan Roche as well as a flock of friends.
But a source tells Page Six exclusively that DiCaprio and Roche are not romantically involved and that the fashionista is actually dating the actor’s pal, who was also present for the group’s day on the water.
Roche, dressed in an electric blue one-piece bathing suit layered under a matching shirt and pants set, was seen showing PDA with her unidentified man throughout their yacht excursion.
Meanwhile, a shirtless DiCaprio was spotted getting his tan on in just a pair of swim trunks as he enjoyed the stunning views of the horizon.
The Oscar winner wore a baseball hat and sunglasses as he and his crew sat in a dingy that transported them to the massive floater dubbed Matador.
DiCaprio has been traipsing around Europe for weeks now.
Last Tuesday, he was spotted grabbing dinner at London hotspot Chiltern Firehouse with his mom, Irmelin Indenbirken, and 28-year-old model Neelam Gill.
Days prior, he was seen busting out his dad-like dance moves while attending the ritzy wedding of billionaire art-world heir Joe Nahmad and model Madison Headrick in Sardinia, Italy.
While DiCaprio clearly plays hard, he also works hard. The Hollywood star attended the Cannes Film Festival last month, where his Martin Scorsese-directed movie “Killers of the Flower Moon” received high praise upon its premiere.
He celebrated the film’s success at a historic local chateau last week with his castmates. And while in town, he also attended Graydon Carter’s star-studded Air Mail fête with Scorsese.
Rumors have been swirling that DiCaprio is dating Gigi Hadid since September 2022 .
Just last month, he and Hadid, 28, were seen leaving Cipriani Downtown in Manhattan’s Soho neighborhood, and in March they both attended the same Oscars party .

A source told Page Six exclusively in December that Hadid wasn’t taking things seriously with DiCaprio and that she was prioritizing her daughter, Khai, whom she shares with ex Zayn Malik.
Meanwhile, DiCaprio has also been linked to models Victoria Lamas , 24, Eden Polani , 19, and Bradley Cooper’s 37-year-old ex Irina Shayk.
He previously dated “Daisy Jones & The Six” star Camila Morrone, 25, for four years, but they broke up in August 2022.
DiCaprio’s love of models is as ever-present as his love of yachts. Among many of his boating adventures, he memorably partied on a $150 million yacht at Art Basel Miami last year, and last summer he yachted in St. Tropez with a group of pals.

Learn About Leonard DiCaprio’s Yacht: Topaz
When you think about Leonardo DiCaprio, images of an eco-conscious crusader who is out to improve the health of the planet may first emerge. Recent rumors that Leo plans to attend the 2018 World Cup events in Brazil aboard a yacht seem a bit contradictory because of the pollution that these floating luxury hotels churn into the air and water.
While some have criticized him for indulging in a bit of heaven at the expense of the planet, if he wasn’t doing it, somebody else would be. At least he’s making an attempt to help the situation when he can. All of that aside, we were curious to find out more about Leonardo DiCaprio’s Yacht, and here is what we discovered.
Leo doesn’t own the yacht
DiCaprio hasn’t actually purchased a yacht. Instead, he rented it from owner, Sheikh Mansour bin Zayed Al Nahyan. Mansour is a billionaire politician who is the current prime minister of the United Arab Emirates.
The mega yacht was custom built according to his grand and luxurious specifications and named the Topaz. Until recently, the interior of the yacht has remained a well-guarded secret. We’ve learned some juicy tidbits that we’re happy to share.
Specifications of the Topaz
The super yacht measures a total of 453 feet in length with a cost of more than $200 million in USD to build and an estimated value of $678 million. This isn’t the biggest yacht that Mr. DiCaprio has chartered, but it’s likely to be one of the most luxurious.
The yacht is powered by four M90 diesel engines which generate approximately 48,000 horse power. The ship made its maiden launch in 2012 and according to sources, DiCaprio also rented it in 2014 just 2 years into its service run.
The Topaz is rumored to be one of the most extravagant yachts in the world . It offers smooth sailing with the installation of zero speed stabilizers. It comes fully outfitted with lifts that ferry guests comfortably among the eight deck levels to the host of amenities that are scattered throughout the massive vessel.
It is decked out in full luxury and comfort with a cinema, two hot tubs, air conditioning throughout, three swimming pools, a fitness hall, underwater lights, an ample sized conference room and a well hidden interior design that is left up to our imaginations.
Leonardo DiCaprio’s guest list aboard the Topaz
Leo won’t be making the trip alone. We’ve learned that he has a list of guests that will accompany him on thee yacht as he enjoys the football tournament in Brazil.
There were 21 of his friends, all of millionaire status mind you, invited to enjoy the amenities. It’s been reported that DiCaprio and his pals hopped a jet and flew to Rio de Janeiro to arrive one day prior to kick off of the Brazil World cup.
The controversy the rental has stirred
While some are happy that Leo had a nice luxury vacation , others are upset about the seeming nose thumb to environmentalists who think his actions are careless.
There has been a degree of judgment and sentiments of disappointment to outright damnation sent his way. Activists point out that Leo’s private jet that made thee 8000 mile trip left a hefty carbon footprint. This is besides the emissions put out from the luxury mega yacht. They’re citing his actions as not being environmentally responsible.
Why the uproar?
The backlash has come after the fact that DiCaprio made a plea to viewers to work with one another to help fight climate change when he accepted his first ever Oscar award. DiCaprio’s involvement in Hollywood environmentalism can’t be denied.
He dedicates time to fly here and there to pick up awards for his contributions to help clean up the environment, but when he flies to and fro, his carbon footprint grows.
There has been a volley of insults and comments disapproving of Leo’s actions, but isn’t this how Hollywood environmentalism works? It’s kinda tough to get to Brazil without flying or chartering a boat to take you there.
It’s a drama that has been ongoing since Leo’s plans were first revealed but it seems that he could at least score a few points for encouraging us all to make some kind of effort.
It’s not easy being the center of attention and there are times when best intentions draw a backlash of negativism, despite the fact that most of us rely on some type of carbon emitting transportation resources.

Leonardo DiCaprio Parties With Models On Yacht In St Barts Amid Gigi Hadid Dating Rumors
Leonardo was spotted chilling on a yacht in St. Barts on New Year's Eve with Tobey Maguire, Drake and a group of gorgeous models to ring in the new year!
Leonardo DiCaprio enjoyed his New Year’s Eve on a yacht in St. Barts alongside his A-list buddies and a slew of models. The Oscar winner, 48, was spotted hanging out in the gorgeous waters with his BFF Tobey Maguire , Drake and one of the cover girls, Madison Headrick , who is Leo’s friend Joe Nahmad’s fianceé. Leonardo kept a low-key figure in a baseball hat and tee while he lunched next to Madison, who also rocked a baseball cap, plus a striped bikini top, as seen in photos here from DailyMail .
The yacht party comes after Leo was spotted with Victoria Lamas recently over the holidays. Last week, they were seen exiting celeb hotspot The Birds Street Club in West Hollywood and getting into a car together. Of course, the sightings have speculated romance rumors, which comes shortly after the rumors of Leo and Gigi Hadid being an item , after the pair were seen leaving the same New York restaurant on Nov. 18.
While many believe the NYE holiday should be celebrated with a someone to kiss at midnight, Leo’s NYE spent without Gigi certainly raised a few eyebrows. However, a source EXCLUSIVELY told HollywoodLife that the actor and the supermodel are just “casually dating” and nothing has changed between them. “Leo is single. Nothing has changed with Gigi . They are casually seeing each other but there is nothing serious going on between them at all,” an insider close to Leo revealed.
Another source added EXCLUSIVELY that ” Gigi knows that Leo and Victoria were out with a bunch of friends which, of course, is completely fine with her.” The insider continued, “Although this wasn’t a romantic outing, Gigi has no opinion one way or another even if Leo does decide he wants to date other people. Her and Leo were never in a serious relationship to begin with, and they had no commitments to each other.”
HollywoodLife will keep you posted on the latest updates to Leo, Gigi and Victoria’s love lives. Stay tuned!

Leonardo at Cannes on board 450ft Megayacht Rising Sun
Yacht aficionado and everyone’s favorite bearded celeb Leonardo DiCaprio was spotted in Cannes on one of the World’s Largest Yachts, once again enjoying some rest and relaxation after enjoying the parties and premieres of the 68th annual Cannes Film Festival.
He was joined by Cape Fear actress and singer Juliette Lewis , who seemed to enjoy the experience so much, she posted a video of her experience on board !
And Leo still does not appear to have rid himself of his beard yet, that he has been sporting for some time!
They were seen sunbathing out on deck with a few friends and it looked they were having a fantastic time!
Leonardo was not surrounded by the usual harem of ladies this time, but there was one tall, mystery blonde on board who he was spotted talking to. Who knows who the lady is or if there is any romantic involvement? Watch this space!
The beautiful yacht they were on is called the Rising Sun , built for Larry Ellison and recently sold to film producer, music mogul and billionaire David Geffen.
The yacht measures 453ft (138m) long, making it the 6th largest yacht on the planet. It features a helicopter landing pad, large swimming pool, fully loaded gym, spa, elevator and private movie theatre – ideal for an A-list movie star! It was built in Germany by shipbuilders Lurssen and can accommodate up to 16 guests in 8 cabins. It has a full complement of 45 crew members for around the clock service …
Since the yacht is privately owned, and not advertised for charter, Leo and Juliette are no doubt such good buddies of Mr Geffen this vacay was probably free. But just to fill you in, this mega yacht cost a tidy $590 million to build … and to charter a yacht like this would probably be in excess of $3.5 million per week (plus expenses!)
As well as talking shop, Leonardo has also been enjoying the more fun side of the festival, attending various lifestyle events at the festival.
According to industry reports, the Inception star outbid heiress and socialite Paris Hilton on the lot that was a Chanel purse at the Heart Fund’s Generous People Dinner Gala at the InterContinental Carlton Hotel in Cannes.
The bidding war was all very peaceful with Leonardo eventually winning it – and apparently went into the bidding with a view to win it for his mother. It went for over $10,000…
