1. Gisele Bündchen
Our quest starts with one of Leonardo DiCaprio’s most high-profile relationships. A passionate relationship that captivated fans and the media lasted for five years between the Titanic actor and Gisele Bündchen. We learned from Vogue that DiCaprio first connected with the Brazilian supermodel in 1999, and they dated for five years. Why did they end their relationship?
Bündchen said the following in a March 2009 interview with Vanity Fair:
“We were very young, and we grew together in a lot of ways. We were just not meant to be boyfriend and girlfriend, but I respect him enormously, and I wish him nothing but the best.”

Meanwhile, DiCaprio, who is agnostic but does not consider himself an atheist, gives few interviews and stays away from talking about his personal life.
2. Bar Refaeli
Another gorgeous supermodel who formerly held Leonardo DiCaprio’s heart is Bar Refaeli. Throughout their more than five-year relationship, which was intermittent, many people questioned whether they were meant to be together.

As per Page Six, the Israeli supermodel dated DiCaprio from 2005 to 2011. Though it may have begun as a fling, DiCaprio’s relationship with Refaeli, who was 20 at the time, swiftly turned into a committed partnership. They did, however, part ways in 2011, and she is currently married to Adi Ezra, with whom she has three kids.
3. Blake Lively
In 2011, Blake Lively and Leonardo DiCaprio went on a brief romantic relationship (via PEOPLE). The then-24-year-old actress was in Los Angeles filming the Gossip Girl series. In August 2017, Joshua Safran, the executive producer of Gossip Girl, told Vanity Fair:
“When I think about shooting the L.A. episodes, Blake was dating [DiCaprio] at the time, and she had this thing where she had a doll that she took photos of that she sent to Leo.”

4. Toni Garrn
Leonardo DiCaprio was also close to German supermodel Toni Garrn. Beginning in 2013, they had an affair that lasted almost a year, raising questions about whether she would be his future wife. Unfortunately, they broke up in 2014 after a romance that lasted for roughly a year.
While sources stressed to E! News at the time that the actor was not looking for anything serious, Garrn and DiCaprio briefly got back together in 2017. In September 2017, it seemed as though they had made a brief reunion when they were seen holding hands and leaving a nightclub in New York City (via PEOPLE).

5. Erin Heatherton
Leonardo DiCaprio continued his trend of dating Victoria’s Secret models when he had a brief but well-publicized relationship with Erin Heatherton. It appears that their love was not meant to last, though.
According to PEOPLE, the couple ended their amicable relationship in 2011 after almost a year together, with the actor attributing the breakup to his demanding film projects. Heatherton and DiCaprio maintained their friendship even after their split, with the model referring to the actor as “a wonderful person” and “a friend of mine” in a 2015 interview with E! News.
