Leonardo DiCaprio is no doubt a man of many talents. Not only is he an incredible actor, but he also has a gift when it comes to the ladies.
At least that's what his history of beautiful girlfriends would certainly lead us to believe.
But, while you get the sense the Titanic star could probably get almost any woman he ever wanted, a hilarious little anecdote recently shared by filmmaker Edward Zwick may have just revealed how the actor goes about finding his partners.
In a little sneak peek from his forthcoming memoir, Hits, Flops, and Other Illusions: My Fortysomething Years in Hollywood, which was shared on X, formerly Twitter, the director recalled his time on set with DiCaprio and his co-stars Jennifer Connelly and Djimon Hounsou, while making hit 2006 movie Blood Diamond.

The political thriller, which was set during the Sierra Leone Civil War, grossed $171 million worldwide and received five Oscar nominations, including Best Actor for DiCaprio and Best Supporting Actor for Hounsou.
Complimenting the three stars, the director spoke of 'only one instance of even the mildest misbehavior' between the actors, explaining: "It’s more a testament to their camaraderie than anything else."
"It seems Leo was currently between gorgeous girlfriends. One morning I walked into the makeup trailer as I often did to discuss the day’s work with him," Zwick recalled.

"I found him in the chair waiting for his turn and noticed he was paging through a Victoria’s Secret catalogue.
"'What are you doing?’ I asked. [Connelly] was in the chair beside him. Without even looking over, she said, ‘Shopping’."
Of course, we can assume the comment was made in jest, however DiCaprio has been linked to a number of supermodels who have worked with the famous lingerie brand.

They include Erin Heatherton, Gisele Bundchen, Bar Refaeli, Eva Herzigova and Helena Christensen, to name a few.
Most recently, the Wolf of Wall Street actor has been linked to Italian model Vittoria Ceretti.
Before that, he was known to have dated Daisy Jones and the Six actor Camila Morrone from 2018 to 2022.
UNILAD has reached out to DiCaprio's reps over the claims made in the excerpt.
