Leonardo DiCaprio and Vittoria Ceretti turned heads at the Academy Awards Sunday night with one of the rarest displays of PDA in DiCaprio’s public life. The couple, who have been dating since at least August 2023, made their Oscars debut together at the Dolby Theatre.
DiCaprio, nominated for Best Actor for his role in One Battle After Another, arrived in a classic black Dior tuxedo paired with a bowtie. He completed the look with a vintage gold bee brooch on the lapel and a Rolex watch, while debuting a neatly trimmed mustache that added a sharp, unexpected edge.
Ceretti, making her Academy Awards debut, opted for a maroon Alaïa gown that carried seamlessly from the ceremony to the Vanity Fair afterparty. The model kept her styling clean and elegant, letting the custom piece speak for itself.
Inside the ceremony, the pair were photographed sitting close together, their subtle gestures hinting at a comfort level built over nearly three years. For DiCaprio, who has long kept relationships private, this marked one of the few occasions he has attended a U.S. awards show with a romantic partner. He has previously brought his mother, Irmelin Indenbirken, to major events like the Golden Globes and BAFTAs.
One Battle After Another led the evening with 13 nominations, including DiCaprio’s Best Actor nod. The film had already taken home awards for Best Adapted Screenplay (Paul Thomas Anderson), Best Supporting Actor (Sean Penn), and Best Casting, solidifying its presence at the ceremony.
For fans and photographers alike, the night was a rare glimpse of DiCaprio in a romantic spotlight — elegant, deliberate, and fully in step with a partner who matches his public poise.
