Leonardo DiCaprio Arrives Solo at Oscars 2026 but Fans Notice Something Else

Leonardo DiCaprio sparked widespread online chatter during the Academy Awards 2026 ceremony after viewers noticed a surprising moment inside the theater.

The Hollywood star arrived on the red carpet alone at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles, dressed in a classic black tuxedo with satin lapels and a bow tie. A gold bee brooch pinned to his jacket added a distinctive touch to the elegant look, while his slicked-back hair and trimmed moustache completed the appearance.

However, attention quickly shifted once the ceremony began.

During the broadcast, cameras showed DiCaprio seated next to Italian model Vittoria Ceretti inside the auditorium. The pair appeared relaxed and cheerful while watching the ceremony and chatting with other guests — a moment that immediately caught the attention of viewers and social media users.

Although the two did not walk the red carpet together, their seating arrangement inside the venue suggested they attended the high-profile event together. For many fans, it marked the most public appearance yet of the actor alongside Ceretti.

Who is Vittoria Ceretti?

Ceretti, 27, is among the most recognized faces in international fashion. The Italian model has worked with major luxury brands including Chanel, Prada, Versace, and Valentino, while also appearing on several global editions of Vogue.

She has also modeled for Victoria's Secret, becoming a regular presence on international runways and fashion campaigns.

A Low-Profile Relationship

DiCaprio and Ceretti were first linked in 2023 after meeting in Milan. Since then, they have largely kept their relationship out of the spotlight despite occasional sightings together in public.

Ceretti previously spoke about the challenges of dating someone famous during an interview with Vogue France in 2025, noting that relationships involving highly visible public figures often come with unwanted labels.

Before being linked to DiCaprio, Ceretti was married to New York-based DJ Matteo Milleri. The pair wed in Ibiza in 2020 before separating in 2023.

While DiCaprio and Ceretti have not publicly commented on their relationship, their Oscars appearance together has once again fueled speculation about the couple’s status.
