Leonardo DiCaprio’s First Kiss Had So Much Saliva He Had to Step Aside and ‘Spit It All Out’

Leonardo DiCaprio is one of Hollywood’s biggest actors, a man who has been in the entertainment industry for decades and has received acclaim from critics all over the world. DiCaprio has been in major motion pictures like The Aviator, Titanic, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, Shutter Island, The Departed, Django Unchained, and Revolutionary Road. As high as DiCaprio’s star has risen in the film industry, however, he is perhaps equally well known for his status as Hollywood’s most eligible bachelor. 

Leonardo DiCaprio is known as a ladies man

DiCaprio began his career in the entertainment industry when he was a young boy, acting in a variety of TV commercials. By the early ’90s, he had broken into movies, with prime roles in films such as This Boy’s Life and What’s Eating Gilbert Grape.

DiCaprio reached teen icon status with his work in the blockbuster romantic drama Titanic, which was released in 1997. As DiCaprio became more and more famous, he also started making magazine covers, and legions of female fans began singing his praises.

Over time, he became one of the film industry’s biggest sex symbols, a heartthrob of truly epic proportions. While DiCaprio has never gotten married, he has been in several serious relationships, mainly with stunning supermodels.

His longest-running relationship was with the Israeli supermodel Bar Refaeli, whom he dated from 2005 until 2011. Although the two never got engaged, they were fixtures at many Hollywood parties.

Who is Leonardo DiCaprio currently dating?

These days, DiCaprio is dating another beautiful model named Camila Morrone. The two have been spotted at many awards shows and events over the past year, but have managed to keep their romance fairly low-key.

According to reports, while the two haven’t announced any sort of formal engagement, DiCaprio and Morrone are getting pretty serious and are even living together. There is a 23-year age gap between the photogenic pair, although Morrone has opened up to state that she isn’t bothered by the difference in their ages.

“There’s so many relationships in Hollywood—and in the history of the world—where people have large age gaps….I just think anyone should be able to date who they want to date,” Marrone told Yahoo. “I feel like there should always be an identity besides who you’re dating. I understand the association, but I’m confident that will continue to slip away and be less of a conversation.”

What did Leonardo DiCaprio say about his first kiss?

Although DiCaprio has dated some of the world’s most beautiful women, every romantic encounter of his hasn’t exactly been great. In a 1995 MovieLine interview, reports US Magazine, DiCaprio, who was then on the cusp of his historic career, opened up about his first kiss. The young actor revealed that the kiss had been “the most disgusting thing in my life. The girl injected about a pound of saliva into my mouth, and when I walked away, I had to spit it all out. It was awful.”

Clearly, DiCaprio has come a long way in the decades since that interview — both in terms of his openness with members of the media and in his relationships with the opposite sex.
