Leonardo DiCaprio has sparked outrage with his latest rumoured love interest after he was spotted getting cosy with 19-year-old model Eden Polani.
Leonardo, 48, split up from his long-term model-turned-actress girlfriend Camila Morrone last summer, a few months after she turned 25, after dating her for four years.
Since then, he has been spotted with 27-year-old Gigi Hadid as well as with other younger models such as Victoria Lamas, age 23.
Hollywood superstar Leo has famously never publicly dated anyone over the age of 25 years old.
And after he was spotted with his youngest companion yet at the release party for Ebony Riley's new EP in Los Angeles on the weekend, fans have realised some surprising facts about their 29-year age-gap.

Realising a grim fact about the Israeli teenager, one fan tweeted: “She's so young, her high school education was interrupted by COVID.”
“DiCaprio’s girlfriend is so young she probably studied the Romeo and Juliet film he starred in when she was at school,” a second chimed in.
Another pointed out that Eden “wasn't even born when Titanic was released” as the film came out in 1998 and Eden was born in 2004.
One person observed: “Kate Winslet was 22 when she was nominated for an Oscar for Titanic. Which is 3 years older than Leonardo DiCaprio’s current girlfriend.”

“Leonardo DiCaprio is about to remove himself from the titanic movie now that it turned 25,” read the tweet, followed by a screenshot of a google search showing the movie's release date.
Another fan pointed out yet another ugly truth: “She would’ve been 9 when The Wolf Wall Street came out.”
“Someone please explain to me what a man nearing 50 has in common with *checks notes* a 19 year old?” a Twitter user wrote.

Yesterday, comedian Katherine Ryan criticised his preference in dating younger women and called it 'creepy'.

Israeli model Eden Polani (@edenpolanii/Instagram)Quote tweeting a person mentioning his age and his new rumoured romance, Katherine said: "This is literally all I’ve talked about for SEVEN YEARS."
Author Caitlin Moran replied: "I feel like he has Titantic trauma. He's dating women like he's still the age he was when he shot it, and he's ALWAYS on holiday on a yacht. Dude needs some EMDR."
"This year, Titanic became too old for Leonardo DiCaprio to be in it," Katherine responded.
One person criticised her tweet and asked Katherine 'what the crime is' as they're 'both adults'.
"No crime just a creepy pattern," the comedian responded.
