Leonardo DiCaprio was spotted at a pre-Oscar party with his co-star, Teyana Taylor. According to TMZ, a witness recorded a video at a party where the two were touching each other a lot. In the video, Leonardo had his arm wrapped around Teyana’s waist.
Teyana was also wearing a revealing dress, allowing for a lot of skin contact. They were pressed close to each other in the busy club, with very little personal space between them.
Later in the video, the costars acted very familiar with each other again. Teyana was spotted fixing Leonardo’s ponytail, hanging from his baseball cap. They were seen whispering in each other’s ears, laughing, and talking to each other for most of the evening.
TMZ further investigated the matter and had sources claim that nothing funny happened between Leonardo and Teyana. Leonardo is still dating Vittoria Ceretti, another young model.
Much attention has been paid to Leonardo’s dating habits over the past few years. His tendency to date younger women and then break up with them around the age of 25 has become a running joke among fans.
Although the couple was last seen together in late February, Vittoria was not at the Oscar’s pre-party. While Leonardo seems to be off the market, Teyana is a single lady.
That said, she is going through a tough divorce from her former husband, Iman Shumpert. The two have children together, which is only making the divorce more difficult.
Teyana Wanted to Avoid a Public Divorce
According to another TMZ report, Teyana secretly filed for divorce in early 2023. Eight months later, they finally announced their separation.
Teyana called Iman a jealous narcissist. Iman plays in the NBA, but despite making more money than Teyana, she claimed that he was insecure about being good enough for her. She also claimed that Iman was jealous of her fame.
An example she gives is when they attended public events together. He’d become annoyed when the photographers wanted him to step away so they could take some photos of Teyana alone.
Teyana tried to make the divorce private by signing the documents with her initials. When Iman signed his divorce papers, however, he used their full names. That made the public aware of their divorce, which Teyana wanted to avoid for the sake of her children.

Their marriage started to become more difficult when Iman started sending negative and manipulative messages to Teyana. He’d later apologize about them, but Teyana was tired of it.
Iman even asked her to stop working, and she had turned down gigs to please him. She also claimed that he cheated on her several times and emotionally manipulated her to keep her around. She’s seeking temporary and permanent primary physical custody of their children, who she says Iman hasn’t spent much time with since October 2023.
Leonardo and Teyana, on the other hand, are working together on the latest indie movie directed by PT Anderson. They’ve been spotted filming several scenes together and seem to have great on-set chemistry.
As for whether they’re seeing each other, witnesses saw them leave the club separately, so it seems the two may just be good friends.
