Leonardo DiCaprio’s Girlfriend Carries the Italian Flag at the Opening Ceremony of the 2026 Winter Olympics

Vittoria Ceretti, the Italian supermodel who has been dating Leonardo DiCaprio for nearly three years, took part in the opening ceremony of the Milan–Cortina 2026 Winter Olympics on the evening of February 6 at San Siro Stadium, where she ceremonially presented the Italian flag to the Corazzieri, the Carabinieri’s elite honor guard.

The spectacular ceremony celebrated Italian culture, fashion, and sport, featuring performances by Andrea Bocelli and Mariah Carey, with Olympic legends Alberto Tomba and Deborah Compagnoni lighting the Olympic flame.

Ceretti, 27, appeared at the end of a procession dressed in white, red, and green suits symbolizing the Italian flag. She wore a custom floor-length white Armani Privé gown with dramatic sleeves and a high neckline as she handed the flag to the Corazzieri.

Her appearance came just after Mariah Carey’s performance and quickly became a highlight of the night. On X, fans praised Ceretti’s “dreamlike elegance,” while others congratulated her on a “flourishing career,” often linking her rising global profile to her relationship with DiCaprio.

Ceretti and DiCaprio were first spotted together in 2023, dancing at a nightclub in Ibiza. They reunited publicly in August 2024 in Italy alongside Tobey Maguire, where Ceretti was seen caring for DiCaprio after he was stung by an insect while swimming in Sardinia.
In May 2025, Ceretti attended the Met Gala with DiCaprio, though the couple did not pose together. She later supported his film One Battle After Another in Los Angeles in September, while avoiding the red carpet.

Sources have said DiCaprio is “very fond of her,” describing Ceretti as “sweet, charming, and captivating.”

Born in 1998 in Brescia, Italy, Vittoria Ceretti stands 1.78 meters tall and began her modeling career at 14 after reaching the finals of Elite Model Look Italia 2012. She made her Milan runway debut with Kristina Ti and broke out internationally in 2016 with a Vogue Italia cover shot by Steven Meisel. She has since fronted campaigns for Dolce & Gabbana, Armani, Alexander McQueen, Chanel, Prada, Versace, and Fendi, and was famously favored by Karl Lagerfeld for her extraordinary versatility. By 2024, Ceretti had walked in over 400 fashion shows, appeared on 24 Vogue covers worldwide, and ranked among the highest-paid models of her generation. She was previously married to DJ Matteo Milleri.

Leonardo DiCaprio (born 1974) began his career in television commercials and the sitcom Growing Pains before his film debut in Critters 3. He rose to prominence with This Boy’s Life (1993) alongside Robert De Niro, won his first and only Best Actor Oscar for The Revenant (2015), and continued his success with Once Upon a Time in Hollywood (2019), Killers of the Flower Moon (2023), and the upcoming action film One Battle After Another (2025). His personal life has long drawn attention due to high-profile relationships with younger models, including Gigi Hadid and Camila Morrone.
