A few weeks ago, there were rumors that Leo DiCaprio was dating a 22-year-old model named Meghan Roche. There were photos of (a very young-looking) Roche getting onto Leo’s yacht. Those photos started another cycle of “wow Leo is so gross” stories, but it turns out, Roche is dating one of Leo’s friends, Badius. That was the response from Leo’s team, the equivalent of “it wasn’t me, that’s not my girlfriend!” For whatever reason, I sort of believe it too. Interestingly enough, just after those Roche rumors popped up, he was once again seen with Gigi Hadid. They were both at the Chiltern Firehouse in London last week and it caused a titter on social media, like Gigi and Leo might still be dealing with each other in some way. What’s amazing is that this time, Gigi’s people shut it down:
Gigi Hadid is keeping things casual. Though rumors continue to circulate about a romance with Leonardo DiCaprio, 48, a source close to the 28-year-old supermodel tells PEOPLE there is nothing serious between the two and that “she’s dating a bit and meets up with Leo when she can.”
“Seeing Leo was never serious for her and it will never be serious. She likes his attention and enjoys hanging out with him. They have a lot of friends in common and also hang out in a group,” the source adds. As of Hadid’s current relationship status: “Gigi is single and is very happy with her life.”
The same source shares that the Next in Fashion co-host is “having a great summer so far,” spending time with her 2-year-old daughter Khai, whom she shares with ex Zayn Malik, as well as her family and friends.
Last week, they were both spotted at London restaurant Chiltern Firehouse. The runway star and The Wolf of Wall Street actor arrived separately. Hadid, wearing a blazer, jeans and a button-up top, and model friend Neelam Gill arrived at the restaurant first. DiCaprio, dressed in a black top and jeans, alongside his father George DiCaprio and his stepmother, Peggy Farrar, stepped out moments later.
A source told PEOPLE that their appearances were not linked. “It’s not surprising that both these two were at a hot spot on the same night,” said the source. “They didn’t arrive or sit together or eat together.”
Yeah… I believe this too. I think Gigi was “useful” for Leo’s image for a few months and then it was over, no harm, no foul. Gigi is single and she’s not interested in Leo’s whole deal, and good for her. Now, I’m still fascinated by Leo’s spring and summer dating energy though. Is Neelam Gill the one? Does he finally have an Indian girlfriend? Or is Neelam just one of several models on his dating portfolio at the moment? I also think that Leo has officially changed up the age rule of his Leo D’s Dating Experience thing – he’s making a point of being seen with women who are 27 and 28 years old. I believe he’s raised the age cut-off from 25 to 29. How bold!

Why are they dragging out this boring fake story?
Because Leo needs to throw at us that he can be interested in women over 25 with kids and used Gigi as a tool. Gigi doesnt appreciate being a prop so she comes out now shutting down Leo’s attempts to continue the rumor machine. Leo is not going to be happy about this because it diminishes his sexy meter performance. He’ll have to be seen with another soon to prove he still is attractive to young women and repeat story here.
Seriously. Nobody believes it.
He’s making a point of being seen with women in their late twenties, but as soon as he thinks the conversation is over he’s going to be in a relationship with a 20 year old. Maybe he makes a 26 or 27 year old his official girlfriend for a few months, but he’s not going to be with a woman nearing her 30s for any extended period of time. Certainly not one that has had children.
Still gross.
They look like siblings. Ick.
He is so creepy. He only likes women until they’re 25 like just own it leo!
I still don’t think she *really* dated him. I think he invited her along on some of his yacht trips after they hung out in a few group dinners.
Anyway, she’s young, rich, beautiful, and uber-successful. She could have basically any man she wants, so why should she settle for an over-serious actor who’s twenty years older and not even that attractive?
Girls in their 20s have absolutely no reason to like Leo, he wasn’t in their timeline. I was like 12 years old when titanic came out, so I remember him being the hottest new heart throb. To girls in their 20s, he’s just an ageing actor who was once hot like 15 years ago.
Also being his beard, sorry I meant ‘girlfriend’ doesn’t carry the same opportunity as it once did.
These girls don’t look ‘desirable’ they look more thirsty and attention seeking.
I think camilla monroe was lucky to land that part in that show, and I think she would have had a much better career launch if she didn’t have that association with Leo first. I think she will have to work even harder to shake off the leo association in order to be taken seriously.
IDK being rich and famous is quite the aphrodisiac for some people. I don’t really doubt that twenty-something women would be attracted to him–it’s the women above 30 that see right through his shit.

Used to like her but not a fan after she unfollowed Joe on Taylor’s demand and was pictured embracing Taylor bigoted misogynistic new bf. She’s shown herself to be as much of a sycophant as Blake/Ryan and as much of a hypocrite as phoebe B. Also dating Leo is hardly a good look, whether it was to help his image or for real.
Meh, we don’t know why she unfollowed someone who her friend used to date, and it’s up to Taylor to make good choices (and up to the grown-a$$ man she was dating to not be a POS) not up to Taylor’s friends to act like her parents and refuse to be polite in public.
I like Gigi. I think she had (has) a mom who created an unhealthy dynamic during her formative years, which she seems determined to undo with her own daughter. She seems like a sweet, generous person who appreciates that she has a lot and is grateful, but also wants to live her life on her own terms. Leo should be so lucky, except Gigi knows better than to get involved with his ridiculous Peter Pan nonsense.
The pos that Taylor dated for a minute is named Matt Healy, let’s keep the focus of his bs on him so he never gets another chance to climb that mountain.
Gigi was a victim of domestic violence with a baby- she’s got a lot of grace & compassion from me & I would hope other people too, but especially women.
Interestingly enough, I was visiting London last week with friends and we had dinner at Chiltern Firehouse on Monday, the night before all of this. Leo was definitely there lol. He walked by us at the bar AND at our table several times. He was there with a large group of people eating in the back room. What’s most interesting is that there were absolutely no paps outside the restaurant on the night we saw him. Just a chauffeured car waiting. I know he likes the place, but going a SECOND night in a row and being papped that time? Seems entirely too coincidental lol
I’ll go further: I don’t think he’s ever really dated any woman for real. That’s sad for him, that he feels he has to do that. I wonder what people would do if he just stopped it. All of it.
