Is Leo DiCaprio engaged? Haha well
It's Gossip Time!
Hello and welcome to Gossip Time, a weekly guide to the stars by Allie Jones. This week: an actor denies an engagement, a musician denies an orgy, and Gigi Hadid and Bradley Cooper do not deny that they love holding hands.
It’s been seven months since Leonardo DiCaprio, 49, was first spotted with Italian model Vittoria Ceretti, 25, which means it is time for the tabloids to speculate that this appropriately matched couple is getting married. Lol. DiCaprio and Ceretti were photographed getting burritos in L.A. this week, and Ceretti was wearing a big sparkler on her left ring finger:
DiCaprio, ever the disguise artist in his cap and mask, also hand-fed his beloved in one of the pics:
Do the ring and this rare display of tenderness add up to MARRIAGE??? Well.
A “source” tells TMZ the couple is not engaged, and that Ceretti has had the ring since before she started dating DiCaprio. She posted a photo of herself wearing it during New York Fashion Week in 2022:
Back then, she was still married to Italian DJ Matteo Milleri. They reportedly divorced in June 2023, just before or after she started seeing DiCaprio (details, details). It’s possible the ring was a gift from him; it definitely was not from DiCaprio.
If the 49-year-old bachelor follows the George Clooney path to marriage, he still has four years before he has to walk down the aisle. Ceretti will be 29 by then — yikes! I do not think they will get married.
Gigi Hadid, who spent most of 2022 pretending to date DiCaprio, is hanging in with Bradley Cooper post-Oscars, for some reason. Maybe they will get married? They both love walking around New York in front of photographers. Just this week, Cooper, 49, and Hadid, 28, were papped holding hands on dates in two of the city’s best neighborhoods: the Financial District and Times Square. (They reportedly saw Sweeney Todd.)
They also held tightly to their phones.
“Things have continued to blossom between Gigi and Bradley and have gotten serious,” a source tells Entertainment Tonight. “Everyone around them sees their natural connection.”
As do I.
One peril of dating a string of models, actresses, and/or reality stars well into your forties: Eventually, one of them is going to talk. For John Mayer, 46, that person is Vanderpump Rules star Scheana Shay. She has previously expressed, several times, that she dated Mayer for six months back in the late aughts, on the heels of his relationship with Jennifer Aniston. And last week on Pump Rules, she suggested that she participated in an orgy with him.

Despite the fact that Mayer is close friends with Bravo boss Andy Cohen, these kinds of disclosures are apparently embarrassing to him.
“John has told several people close to him that he never hooked up with Scheana,” source told The Sun this week. “He knows that she has been telling people they hooked up well before the Vanderpump Rules episode aired and it’s gotten back to him. He’s very annoyed by the entire thing and wants nothing to do with her.”
That’s rude. I believe Scheana.
STUFF BY HILARY DUFF: As far as we know, Hilary Duff is still pregnant.
Finally: Happy Beyoncé Day!
I’m about to embark on a six-hour road trip with my five-month-old and am feeling very grateful for this album.

My favorite thing about Bradley and Gigi photos (Bradgi?) is that he is always on the phone and the pap always seems to be two feet away, even as Bradgi (?) is acting like they’re in a world of their own
"They both love walking around New York in front of photographers" lmao
