Leonardo DiCaprio attended his first Met Gala with a special guest: his 26-year-old girlfriend Vittoria Ceretti.
In photos for Vogue magazine, the Academy Award winner was captured with his left hand covering his face in a candid shot while his supermodel girlfriend walked next to him with her hand on her chest. Also in the shot was former British Vogue editor-in-chief Edward Enninful.
This year's Met Gala on May 5 raised funds for the museum's Costume Institute and its spring exhibit, Superfine: Tailoring Black Style, honoring the fashion of Black dandyism.
The couple didn't walk the steps of The Met before the event, much like former vice president Kamala Harris, who attended the event but didn't walk the carpet.
"Though the famously secretive couple has been together since 2023 and was also spotted at Teyana Taylor's post-Met Gala Cabaret on Sunday night, the 2025 Met Gala is certainly one of their most high-profile-and glamorous-appearances yet," Vogue magazine wrote.
In an April cover story for Vogue France, Ceretti revealed that the couple met in Milan, but said in French that she preferred "not to go into details."
"As soon as you're in a relationship with someone who has a larger following than you, you become 'girlfriend of'-or 'boyfriend of,' for that matter. And that can be extremely annoying," Ceretti told the outlet in French. "Suddenly, people are talking about you as so-and-so's girlfriend who was so-and-so's ex."
She added that "it's not nice to think that you can't love whoever you want, because of the labels people need to stick on you."
Ceretti continued, explaining her approach to dating one of the world's most famous people: "It's something you learn. If what you're experiencing is real, if you know you love each other, then there's no reason to be alarmed. Because love protects and gives confidence." After the interviewer said that there were no more boyfriend questions, Ceretti smiled (according to an editor's note) and said, "thank you."
